Cyclical uncertainty: Healthcare providers and gender affirming care in Central Appalachia.
Article in International journal of transgender health, 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
Purpose: An estimated 1.4-2.3 million transgender and gender nonbinary (TGNB) adults live in the United States. Very few studies have explored TGNB healthcare delivery from the perspectives of primary care providers in the Southeast region broadly, and even fewer have focused on the Central Appalachian region in particular. This project explores the perspectives of providers in the area to better understand the needs of this population. Methods: Healthcare providers in community health organizations within Central Appalachia participated in sixteen in-depth interviews. Researchers performed a qualitative thematic analysis to identify major themes in experiences of providing gender affirming care (GAC) for TGNB in the region. Results: Data analysis revealed four major themes: 1) practitioners' baseline knowledge of GAC influences their perception of providing care for TGNB patients, 2) practitioners report a lack of certainty in providing care to TGNB patients, 3) practitioners show interest in and recognize the need for educational resources and support in providing GAC, and 4) colleagues and patients are a useful source of knowledge for providing GAC. Conclusion: Participants held inconsistent definitions for what
