Intersections of sexual orientation, gender identity, and race/ethnicity and odds of reporting depression and anxiety symptomology in the Household Pulse Survey.
Article in Journal of mental health (Abingdon, England), 2026. 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
purposeWe examined odds of anxiety and depression symptomology among sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals compared to straight and cisgender individuals, stratified by race.
methodsData represented 918,892 households in the Household Pulse Survey from July 2021-October 2022. The Patient Health Questionnaire-2 measured depression symptoms (Scores >3 = depression symptoms). The Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-2 measured anxiety symptoms (Scores >3 = anxiety symptoms). Sexual orientation was categorical: "Gay/Lesbian," "Straight," "Bisexual," "Something Else," or "Don't know." Gender identity had 3 levels: "Cisgender Male," "Cisgender Female," or "Transgender/other gender identity." Logistic regression estimated odds ratios(OR) and 95% confidence intervals(CI) for depression and anxiety among sexual minority individuals compared to straight individuals and transgender individuals compared to cisgender males. Intersection of sexual orientation/gender identity was also examined. Models (adjusted for sociodemographic factors) were stratified by race/ethnicity.
resultsTransgender individuals showed doubled odds of depression (OR:2.30 95%CI:1.98,2.67) and anxiety (OR:2.41 95%CI:2.23,2.61) versus cisgender individuals. Bisexual individuals had nearly tripled odds versus straight individuals. Transgender bisexual individuals showed highest odds versus cisgender males (depression OR:6.22 95%CI:5.06,7.64; anxiety OR:7.11 95%CI:6.13,8.24). Non-Hispanic White individuals typically showed highest symptomology.
conclusionSGM individuals showed increased anxiety and depression symptomology, with unexpected racial disparities warranting further intersectionality research.
