Understanding and Addressing Disinformation in Gender-Affirming Health Care Bans.
Article in Transgender health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Legislation undermining the human rights of transgender and gender-expansive (TGE) people is on the rise. Many U.S. states have passed or proposed laws that restrict gender-affirming health care (GAC), which are largely rooted in scientific disinformation, meaning intentional falsehood. Scientific disinformation presents a significant threat to TGE people, providers of GAC, health care professionals, and the general public. Clinicians, legal advocates, and others need effective strategies to rebut disinformation. This perspective reviews the status of GAC bans and the disinformation strategies that underlie them, and provides practical tools to challenge false claims.
