Hypertension in transgender individuals.
Review in Journal of human hypertension, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Although there has been a dramatic increase in visibility and recognition of transgender and gender-diverse populations, remarkably little has been published on prevalence rates of hypertension within these populations. In addition to summarizing the limited data on prevalence rates, this review compares the prevalence rates with those of cisgender populations and explores whether gender-affirming hormone therapy affects blood pressure and hypertension rates. The studies show that hypertension affects a significant proportion of transgender and gender-diverse people and support the practice of routinely monitoring blood pressure in transgender and gender-diverse people, especially after the initiation of gender-affirming hormone therapy. The two largest studies both found that estrogen plus an antiandrogen was associated with a decrease in systolic blood pressure and that testosterone was associated with an increase in systolic blood pressure.
