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
Objectives: Our study aimed to assess perspectives of the Thai transgender adults toward three diagnostic criteria: 1) transsexualism (the World Health Organisation's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, tenth revision; ICD-10), 2) gender incongruence (the International Classification of Diseases, eleventh revision; ICD-11), and 3) gender dysphoria (the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition; DSM-5). We also gathered comments and suggestions on these criteria for future refinement, especially specific to Thai sociocultural contexts. Methods: During February to November 2023, we conducted a survey among transgender individuals from five major Thai transgender communities. Participants were requested to 1) indicate their agreement whether each criterion could describe their identity and be suitable for the Thai transgender community using ten-point Likert scales, 2) select three keywords from each criterion and one most appropriate criterion, and 3) provide additional suggestions. Results: A total of 266 transgender individuals, participated in the study (62.4% and 25.2% transgender men and women, and 12.4% other identities). Both ICD-10 and DSM-5 criteria received the highest levels of agreement, averaging scores of 8.7 across most categories. Suggestions for refining criteria included a sufficiently long duration, using terms indicating inclusivity of all identities as a person, and noting positive outcomes of transitioning within the criteria. Conclusions: The DSM-5 criteria garnered the highest levels of agreement in terms of identity description and suitability for the Thai sociocultural contexts. Nonetheless, further refinement can be improved, especially to ensure the inclusivity of transgender individuals with identities beyond the binary.
