ReviewTherapeutic advances in reproductive health
Barriers to fertility preservation access in transgender and gender diverse adolescents: a narrative review.
Review in Therapeutic advances in reproductive health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Fertility preservation (FP) involves the cryopreservation of gametes, embryos, and/or gonadal tissue oocytes, for future use in family building. FP as part of a comprehensive approach to care of transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals is an understudied topic. Current evidence indicates that gender affirming therapies may increase the risk for infertility. As a result, TGD individuals, including adolescents, should receive counseling regarding FP prior to beginning gender affirming treatment. Many barriers exist to TGD adolescents receiving FP counseling and undergoing FP if desired. The objective of this narrative review is to summarize the literature regarding the desire for FP in TGD adolescents, the barriers to TGD adolescents in accessing of FP, and to discuss potential interventions for alleviation of such barriers. A literature search using the following Medical Subject Headings search terms: 'transgender persons' and 'fertility preservation' and 'adolescents' was conducted
