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

objectivesThis study aimed to describe how minority stress and employment discrimination are associated with job quality (ie, employment type and income) among sexual- and gender-minority (SGM) workers.

methodsWe conducted a pooled cross-sectional analysis of the 2021 and 2022 surveys from a national study of SGM adults in the United States. Using multinomial logistic regression models and stratification by six gender groups, we examined associations of minority stress and past-year employment discrimination with job quality.

resultsAmong 4221 workers, 22.0% experienced precarious employment and 6.8% were unemployed. Approximately half earned ≤US$50 000. The mean minority stress score was 14.41, indicating moderate-to-severe minority stress. A one-standard-deviation increase in minority stress was associated with higher odds of precarious employment [adjusted odds ratio (OR

conclusionsHigher minority stress levels and employment discrimination were associated with worse job quality among SGM workers. Future labor market reforms should reduce minority stress and employment discrimination, as well as improve job quality, for SGM workers.
