1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

During and after the 2016 United States (U.S.) presidential election, discriminatory policies and stigmatizing rhetoric have been increasingly directed toward the transgender community at state and national levels. Transgender and/or nonbinary (TNB) adolescents, already at elevated risk for poorer health relative to their cisgender (nontransgender) peers, may have been adversely impacted by the shifting sociopolitical climate. This secondary analysis used qualitative data from the Trans Teen and Family Narratives Project to investigate how perceived shifts in the sociopolitical climate following the 2016 election affected families with TNB adolescents in the New England region of the U.S. (states of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont). Data included two waves of semistructured interviews conducted with TNB adolescents and their caregivers and siblings (N = 20 families, 60 family members). Two coders analyzed transcripts using a thematic analysis approach. Emergent themes included: contemporary life for trans people in America (e.g., being discriminated against and dehumanized), perceptions of the national sociopolitical climate (e.g., anger toward political figures), forms of resistance and advocacy (e.g., confronting misinformation), and factors amplifying or buffering effects of the sociopolitical climate (e.g., the formation of alliances or coalitions within the family). Findings indicate the 2016 election spurred the redefinition of communication boundaries within, and outside, the immediate family, particularly regarding online communication and social media. TNB adolescents and their families anxiously anticipated changes in the sociopolitical climate and their foreseen impact on TNB adolescents' rights and safety. Implications for family therapy, intervention design, and policy reform are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
