Transphobic Adverse Childhood Experiences as a Determinant of Mental and Sexual Health for Young Trans Women in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Article in Transgender health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
This study characterized the prevalence of transphobic adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) among young trans women (YTW) and assessed its relationship with poor mental health and sexual risk. A survey was administered between 2012 and 2014 to 300 YTW aged 16-24 living in the San Francisco Bay Area. Transphobic childhood verbal abuse, physical abuse, and high transphobic childhood adversity were endemic, and we found strong associations with depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, and any and receptive anal intercourse. ACEs may be critical social determinants of mental and sexual health for YTW and validated measures to screen for ACEs are needed, along with interventions that provide gender-affirmative support for parents.
