Sexual orientation and all-cause mortality: A population-based prospective cohort study in southern Sweden.
Article in Public health in practice (Oxford, England), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objectives: To investigate associations between sexual orientation and all-cause mortality. Study design: Prospective cohort study. Methods: The 2008 public health survey in Scania was conducted with a postal questionnaire later linked to 9.3-year prospective death register data, including 25,071 respondents, aged 18-80. Analyses were conducted with sex-stratified survival analyses. Results: In the models including age, birth country and socioeconomic status, bisexual men had a hazard rate ratio (HRR) 1.91 (1.10-3.30) compared to heterosexual men, and bisexual women had a HRR 3.18 (1.64-6.18). No significant differences were observed for homosexuals. Other women had a HRR 2.32 (1.47-3.67). Conclusions: Bisexuals men and women had higher mortality than heterosexuals.
