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

Introduction: Prescribing testosterone for gender affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) has been increasing in Australia with much of this practice done by general practitioners (GPs) and there are current AusPATH guidelines on how this can be done appropriately. There has been limited data collected from GPs about how well these patients are monitored and the adverse effects (AEs) that are experienced by this population of patients. Objectives: The primary objective of this study was to collect data about monitoring and adverse effects of GAHT provided in GP settings. Methods: The PUSH! Audit was a cross-sectional study that collected data from 9 GP Clinics across 5 Australian cities who provided GAHT with testosterone. Data was also collected about cisgender men who were prescribed testosterone for testosterone deficiency (TD) as a comparison group ( Results: The patients in the GAHT group ( Conclusion: This study shows that GAHT with testosterone can be provided effectively in general practice with high levels of success and very low levels of AEs.
