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 recent years, there has been an increasing recognition of the unique healthcare needs of gender-diverse patients in Australia. With the continuous growth of referrals to gender health services, there is an increased demand for specialised dermatological care. There is still a significant knowledge gap and a lack of guidelines specifically tailored to this patient group. In this article, we will provide a brief overview of the journey of Transgender and Gender Diverse (TGD) individuals as they embark on psychological and pharmacologic treatment for gender dysphoria in Australia. We endeavour to contribute to the existing body of knowledge by examining the evidence surrounding the treatment of skin, hair and nail issues for TGD patients. This article will outline how dermatologists can assist in the care of the gender-diverse patient. Although puberty blockade (stage 1 treatments) has minimal dermatological impact, gender-affirming pharmacotherapy (stage 2 treatments) can lead to many dermatological issues including acne, patterned hair loss (PHL) and dermatitis. The dermatologist may also play a role in stage 3 treatments which include surgical or procedural interventions for gender affirmation.
