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
objectiveTo describe the sociodemographic profile and access to social assistance and health services among trans people and travestis experiencing homelessness in Salvador, the capital city of Bahia state.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study involving 24 (4.5%) participants who identified as trans people or travestis out of a total of 529 people, aged 18 or older, living in public spaces or institutional shelters included in the survey. Data were collected between 2021 and 2022, using structured questionnaires.
resultsThe sample was predominantly comprised of trans women and travestis (n=18), young individuals (n=13), of Black race/skin color (n=22), single individuals (n=18) and those engaged in informal occupations (n=23), many of whom reported experiencing violence (n=17). Frequent barriers to accessing healthcare and social assistance services were found (n=15), including lack of documentation, delay in service provision and social/racial discrimination.
conclusionThe findings highlight the heightened vulnerability of transgender people and travestis experiencing homelessness, who are subjected to multiple forms of discrimination and social exclusion.
