TikTok in Transgender Health: Is It Really Useful for Plastic Surgeons?
Article in Transgender health, 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
Purpose: In 2020, videos with the hashtag #trans had over 6 billion views on the video-sharing application "TikTok." We aim to analyze TikTok users' engagement with gender-affirming surgery (GAS) content by transgender and nonbinary (TGNB) patients and plastic surgeons. Methods: Between August 23 through September 11, 2021, we analyzed the top 14 hashtags for GAS and the top 10 most viewed videos for each hashtag using the TikTok application. We extracted the number of shares, likes, comments, and analyzed the quality of video comments, content, and creator. Results: Transmasculine top surgery ( Conclusion: TikTok users mostly engage with videos by the PSO on postoperative outcomes compared with educational and TGNB awareness/pride content posted by patients and surgeons. Adapting TikTok content may increase engagement with future patients and family members.
