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

Purpose: Stigma is a fundamental driver of HIV disparities among transgender women (TW). The gender minority stress and resilience (GMSR) measure has not been validated in Spanish-speaking, resource-limited settings. We examined the psychometric properties of a translated and abbreviated GMSR among TW in Tijuana, Mexico. Methods: From 2020 to 2021, 152 participants were recruited through social media and venue-based sampling. We collected information on the abbreviated GMSR, psychosocial factors (e.g., depressive symptoms), and sociodemographics. The abbreviated GMSR assessed 7 factors (Discrimination, Rejection, Internalized Transphobia, Negative Expectations, Nondisclosure, Pride, and Community Connectedness). Confirmatory factor analysis, Cronbach's alphas, and McDonald's omegas assessed structural validity. Pearson's partial correlations assessed criterion, convergent, and discriminant validities. Results: The 7-factor structure solution had acceptable fit (root mean square error of approximation [95% confidence interval]=0.05 [0.05-0.06]; comparative fit index/Tucker-Lewis index=0.92/0.91); and internal reliability (α=0.62-0.89; ω=0.62-0.89). Depressive ( Conclusion: Findings suggest that the Spanish-translated, abbreviated GMSR is a reliable and valid measure. These data expand the usability of the GMSR to TW in a Latin American, Spanish-speaking context.
