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

In reading the published letter to the editor by Drs Venkatesh and Morris, they raise a number of points concerning educating students about developmental embryology, along with clinical (and presumably legal) considerations concerning individuals with DSDs or gender. Its publication is timely, given the recent debates in the wider medical community, and in public, following the publication of the Cass report, and the "WPATH files" (by Michael Shellenberger). While typical developmental embryology, and examples of variations, should rightly be included within the undergraduate curriculum (and has traditionally been taught pre-clinically by anatomists), establishing the extent to which diagnosis and management of DSDs and gender dysphoria should be included within modern undergraduate curricula is surely more appropriate for our specialist Clinical Colleagues to determine.
