Article in Archives of sexual behavior, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This study examined gender dysphoria (GD) in transgender and cisgender populations in China and aimed to provide validity evidence for two dimensional measures of GD. A total of 293 transgender people (170 transmen, 65 transwomen, and 58 non-binary trans people; mean age, 21.3 years) and 538 cisgender people (296 ciswomen and 242 cismen; mean age, 23.5 years) completed the Utrecht Gender Dysphoria Scale (UGDS), the Gender Identity/Gender Dysphoria Questionnaire for Adolescents and Adults (GIDYQ-AA), and demographic information online. The UGDS and the GIDYQ-AA had good reliability and validity for the Chinese population. Transgender people reported higher intensity of GD than cisgender people. Cisgender women reported higher intensity of GD than cisgender men. Non-binary transgender people reported lower intensity than binary transgender people. However, transmen reported higher intensity than transwomen for the UGDS but not for the GIDYQ-AA. Transgender people with gender-affirming hormonal treatment experience reported higher intensity of GD than those without treatment. Moreover, transgender people coming out to parents reported higher intensity than those who did not. The cutoff values of the UGDS and the GIDYQ-AA in the original version show high sensitivity for transgender people and specificity for cisgender people. Our findings indicate that the UGDS and the GIDYQ-AA are validated measures of GD in China.
