Considerations for collecting and analyzing longitudinal data in observational cohort studies of transgender, non-binary, and gender diverse people.
Article in International journal of transgender health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The health and well-being of transgender, non-binary, and gender-diverse people is receiving increasing attention from epidemiologists and public health researchers, including those utilizing longitudinal observational cohort studies. These longitudinal studies are advantageous over cross-sectional observational study designs given their scope over several timepoints rather than one, and when exposures and outcomes are prospectively measured this improves validity of causal claims. However, within these longitudinal studies, gender is often collected inconsistently (e.g. only asked at a single timepoint), or inadequately (e.g. questions that use limiting notions of gender). Due to the temporal nature of gender, this introduces potential including misclassification error and may provide an incomplete picture of gender diversity in a sample. This article considers these methodological issues and offers evidence-based recommendations to ensure longitudinal data on trans, non-binary, and gender-diverse people is treated with epidemiological rigor, while maintaining inclusivity.
