The importance of early and accurate service information for young people accessing gender care.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Relevant and accurate information is crucial for patient access to healthcare. In the current literature, the availability and provision of information have been proposed to be key barriers to young people accessing gender care. However, it is unclear what kind of information young people want and how clinical services should address this access barrier. Here, we share the results of qualitative interviews with 14 young adults (aged 18-22) who accessed gender care as minors (under 18 years old) in Australia. Three themes were identified from the data: (1) information seeking, (2) a lack of information affects expectations, and (3) a lack of information impacts decision making about accessing care. Participants looked for at least three types of information prior to accessing gender care: medical, experiential, and service information. Our results highlight the key gap was information about services and how they work. Clinical services should consider their practical and ethical role in providing accurate and reliable service information to young people, prior to the clinical encounter.
