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

Purpose: Few studies have explored mental health needs and barriers to accessing care among transgender and nonbinary (TNB) individuals during adolescence. The purpose of this study was to explore TNB young adults' mental health care utilization, unmet care needs, and barriers to receiving care in adolescence. Methods: A 42-item cross-sectional survey was administered to TNB individuals aged 18-20 years. Chi Results: Of 286 participants, approximately half (42.3%) were women and 50.7% reported being "out" to at least one parent before the age of 18. More than half (55.2%) reported having seen a mental health provider in adolescence; however, only 10.1% indicated that they had received enough mental health support. Significant differences were found in having seen a mental health provider by gender identity ( Conclusions: These findings provide a better understanding of the mental health care utilization and needs among TNB individuals in adolescence. Further research focused on ways to support TNB adolescents and how parents can support their TNB adolescents' mental health is warranted.
