Alcohol Use Disparities Among Transgender and Nonbinary Adults: An Intersectional Investigation.
Article in Drug and alcohol review, 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
introductionThis study examined an intersectional perspective on alcohol use disparities within transgender and nonbinary (TGNB) adults.
methodsWe examined the data from the 2015 U.S. Transgender Survey (N = 27,715), a cross-sectional, nationwide survey of TGNB adults. The number of drinking days and the number of binge-drinking days were primary outcomes. Analyses followed a multilevel analysis of individual heterogeneity and discriminatory accuracy approach to examine alcohol disparities across gender identities (transgender, nonbinary and crossdresser) and intersections with race/ethnicity, age, sex assigned at birth and dis/ability status.
resultsSignificant identity-related differences existed within TGNB communities across all facets of identity. Relative to the sample average, individuals at the intersection of White and crossdressers reported elevated levels of alcohol use. Further, effects were most pronounced across combinations of transgender, nonbinary, White and Black participants to accurately describe alcohol risk in subpopulations relative to examining risk associated with each one of these identities independently. DISCUSSION AND
conclusionsDisparities in alcohol use among TGNB adults are best understood from an intersectional perspective. Affirming public health initiatives for alcohol use should consider identity-related differences across TGNB communities. SCIENTIFIC SIGNIFICANCE: Results provide the first evidence that alcohol use disparities exist across gender and intersecting identities in a large sample of TGNB adults. Findings lay the groundwork for future research examining mechanisms responsible for these disparities.
