Best Practices for Gender-Affirming Care for Pediatric Orthopaedic Patients.
Review in Journal of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Transgender and gender-expansive youth may experience barriers to healthcare due to stress and anxiety associated with accessing healthcare coupled with a lack of awareness by providers of best practices for treating this population. The pediatric orthopaedic community has an opportunity to improve relationships and outcomes for transgender patients by understanding the distinctive qualities of this population and how to best support these patients via the provision of gender-affirming care. By following best practices for gender-affirming care, pediatric orthopaedic providers are uniquely positioned to provide affirming, supportive care for transgender patients within their practices, which may ultimately impact patient outcomes and patient satisfaction. Gender-affirming care should begin the moment the patient enters the healthcare facility, continue through all perioperative and follow-up care, and should be practiced by all members of a multidisciplinary care team. Synergizing the expertise of psychologists, developmental and behavioral pediatricians, and orthopaedic surgeons, this article offers best practices at each step in the care pathway for providers to consider. An interview with a pediatric patient with gender considerations who has previously undergone orthopaedic surgery is included at the end of this article to provide additional insight from the patient perspective.
