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
Objective: To examine uptake of in-person and digital sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services among adolescents and young adults, quantify uptake across time, and explore whether the introduction of digital services affected the sociodemographic composition of users. Patients and Methods: This Swedish total population study included all Stockholm residents aged 12-22 years between January 1st 2018 and December 31st 2022. The primary outcome was in-person or digital visits (chat and video) of SRH services within a year, identified using regional health care registries. Sociodemographic predictors included sex, age, migrant background, parental education, and household income, analyzed with repeated-measures multivariable regressions. Results: Among the 454,405 individuals, 23.96% had at some point used SRH services (80.01% women) between 2018 and 2022. In-person visits remained the predominant mode of contact. Women had higher annual utilization rate of both in-person (women: 15.27%; 95% CI, 15.13-15.40; men: 1.75%; 95% CI, 1.72-1.78) and digital visits (women: 2.23%; 95% CI, 2.16-2.30; men: 0.12%; 95% CI, 0.11-0.13). Significantly lower uptake was also observed in the lowest income quintile (digital: adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.34; 95% CI, 0.31-0.36; in-person: aOR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.42-0.45) compared with the highest quintile (reference group). Among digital visits, chat was more equitably used than video consultations across sociodemographic groups, including smaller differences between the highest and lowest income quintiles (chat: aOR, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.54-0.65; video: aOR, 0.25; 95% CI, 0.23-0.27). Only modest reductions in socioeconomic disparities were observed after the introduction of digital services. Conclusions: Sociodemographic disparities in utilization were not alleviated by the introduction of digital visits; in-person users were also the primary digital users. Chat could be more equitable than video, but further research is needed.
