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

Background: While there are data showing the effects of gender-affirming hormone therapy on sexual satisfaction in transgender and gender-diverse individuals, there is no research on sexual function in patients seeking or undergoing gender-affirming hysterectomy (GAH). Aim: This project is a descriptive study of baseline characteristics (pre-hysterectomy) in patients seeking GAH. Methods: Twenty participants at a single tertiary care center were surveyed on orgasm satisfaction (Orgasm Rating Scale), and sexual function (Transmasculine Sexual Functioning Index). Results: The study sample ( Conclusion: This study should be replicated in a larger, more diverse sample, with stratification across hormone therapy use, and longitudinal follow-up to assess for change in sexual function over time.
