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

An electronic survey of transgender and nonbinary (TNB) adolescents was administered between June and August 2023 to identify potential facilitators of gender-affirming medical care (GAMC). Results indicated the most important facilitator was being able to access GAMC from their regular doctor. Accessing care via school-based health centers, a telemedicine visit with a gender specialist, and sharing videos about GAMC with parents were more important to those who had not been seen in a clinic that provides GAMC. Overall, this study offers important insights into how to improve access to GAMC for TNB adolescents who want but are not receiving this care.
