Feeling 'not enough' or 'too much': Exploring how LGBTQ+ adults experiencing disability navigate Canadian health contexts.
Article in Journal of health psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Disability and LGBTQ+ communities experience healthcare disparities, however, most research has looked at these communities separately which erases the unique health experiences of people who belong to both. This project sought to explore intersections between gender, sexuality and disability within Canadian health contexts through three life-story interviews with seven adults (aged 25-35; 21 interviews total) who identified as LGBTQ+ and experiencing disability. Thematic narrative analysis resulted in interrelated themes associated with axes of self-identification that demonstrated how participants navigated tensions between being perceived as not disabled, trans and/or queer 'enough' or 'too much' within healthcare settings. Participants relayed stories of strategically omitting and/or sharing aspects of their intersectional identities with healthcare providers to receive the care they needed. This study, in demonstrating some of the difficult compromises and decisions LGBTQ+ adults who experience disability navigate to access healthcare, highlights how ableism, cis-heterosexism and racism intertwine to shape medical systems.
