Maximizing surgical outcomes with gender affirming hormone therapy in gender affirmation surgery.
Article in Journal of clinical & translational endocrinology, 2024. 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
Gender Affirmation Surgery (GAS) is a super specialized subset within the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery (PRS) that is ever evolving and of increasing interest to the PRS community. It is a multifaceted process which, in addition to surgical therapy, involves mental health therapy and hormonal therapy. One rapidly emerging interest within GAS is the role that gender affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) plays in enhancing surgical outcomes. GAHT has been used adjunctively with GAS as a comprehensive therapy to ameliorate gender dysphoria. This literature review will examine the positive effects of GAHT on the surgical outcomes on GAS, as well as other important considerations prior to surgery. As such, the primary objective of this literature review is to evaluate and assess the current evidence concerning the efficacy and safety of GAHT, as it relates to Gender Affirmation Surgery procedures.
