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

How well do doctors know their patients? Is the future generation of doctors prepared for real-world patient encounters? Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other (LGBTQ+) patients are disproportionately affected by a wide range of health issues, and many of these patients face barriers and stigma when accessing healthcare. Our research aimed to explore the awareness current medical students hold toward some of the health disparities faced by LGBTQ+ patients. Second-year medical students at our institution filled out a survey following their standardized patient exams to examine how prepared they felt to diagnose and treat a patient self-identifying as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.
