'GP services are still heteronormative': Sexual minority cisgender women's experiences of UK menopause healthcare - Health equity implications.
Article in Post reproductive health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveThis article reports on UK sexual minority cisgender women's experiences of menopause health and healthcare, based on a data subset from a study exploring lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer (LGBTQ+) menopause.
methodsAn online survey was conducted with UK LGBTQ + individuals who went through/are going through the menopause. Quantitative data were analysed using simple descriptive statistics. Qualitative data were analysed using thematic analysis.
resultsCisgender respondents comprised 51 lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, queer, and 'other' women, aged between 17 and 89 years. They reported similar types and levels of menopause symptoms as heterosexual cisgender women in other studies, apart from higher levels of anxiety and depression, especially bisexual women. Dissatisfaction regarding menopause healthcare services related to access, information, and heteronormative/heterosexist provision.
conclusionsHealthcare providers must ensure they provide inclusive menopause services to sexual minority cisgender women.
