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

Objectives: This study aims to analyze differences between lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) and non-LGBTQ+ Veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in terms of demographics, comorbidities, and medical care usage, including differences by sex of record, including separate analyses for transgender and non-transgender Veterans. Methods: Chi-square, Results: The study found significant differences, particularly concerning positive LGBTQ+ status and sex of record. There were significant differences found in age, marital status, and medical care usage, as well as pain, mental health, and substance use disorder diagnoses. Differences in having experienced military sexual trauma, crime, or maltreatment were especially significant, with increased percentages among LGBTQ+ individuals, and sex of record females. In separate analyses, there were similar differences among transgender and non-transgender Veterans, with similar increased risks for sex of record females. Conclusion: Our findings suggest an intersectionality of LGBTQ+ status and sex of record in the context of PTSD. These findings may help guide future research, policy, and interventions.
