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

Pediatric gender clinics are a uniquely safe and affirming space for transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth to be forthcoming about safety and risk concerns. Given this group of young people are at increased risk for suicidality and self-harm, it is essential for pediatric hospitals and gender clinics to have a gender-affirming mental health attending of the day to assist when TGD youth are feeling unsafe and would benefit from additional support. In this perspectives piece, we present the role, responsibilities, and workflow of the gender-affirming mental health attending of the day and how they offer essential support during mental health crises.
