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
Ongoing, large-scale longitudinal studies and surveillance systems are moving beyond historical single-item sex or gender measures to better capture gender identity. We examined patterns in adolescents' responses over a two-year period (2020-2021 to 2021-2022 school years) after the COMPASS study adopted a two-step measure of gender identity. Descriptive analyses revealed that, over time, 3.5% and 5.5% of high school students (n = 11 618) selected a different response for sex and gender, respectively. Our findings show that by implementing an inclusive measure that recognizes sex and gender as distinct constructs can improve the identification of all gender identities without compromising data quality.
