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
purposeAlthough several studies have shown a relationship between anti-transgender experiences and binge drinking and/or hazardous drinking, very little research has examined how these experiences relate to heavy drinking. That is the focus of this study.
methodsThis paper uses data from the 2015 National Transgender Survey, and is based on a sample of 17,367 transgender adults residing in the United States. Analyses compare three groups: current "regular" drinkers (drank at least some alcohol during the previous month but no days consuming five or more drinks) (
results13.8% of the participants met the criteria for heavy drinking; 26.4% more were classified as binge drinkers. The more anti-transgender experiences people had, the more likely they were to engage in heavy drinking. Multivariate analyses revealed that this relationship was a robust one, holding up even when numerous other potentially confounding control measures were included in the analyses.
conclusionsAnti-transgender experiences are a strong predictor of heavy drinking. This type of minority stressor is an important consideration when understanding what leads many transgender individuals to become heavy drinkers.
