Navigation of a New-Onset Pulmonary Embolism in a Patient Receiving Female-to-Male Gender-Affirming Care: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The growth of the transgender and/or gender diverse (TGD) community has created an increased demand for comprehensive and evidence-based gender-affirming care, especially when providing a hormone-based regimen. Although there are known risks of adverse events from receiving exogenous hormone replacement therapy, many of these risks are typically attributed to members of the TGD community receiving estrogen-based therapy. In this report, a case of a subsegmental pulmonary embolism in a male patient assigned female at birth who was actively receiving testosterone-based, female-to-male gender-affirming care is detailed. In doing so, attention is drawn to a potential complication of this approach, thereby empowering clinicians and patients alike to be cognizant of such risks while still pursuing this otherwise pivotal and necessary care.
