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

The Transformative Research on Equity And Social determinants to Uplift Resilience and Empower LGBTQ+ Health in China (TREASURE) is the first large-scale cohort study designed to investigate health conditions and social determinants of health among the LGBTQ+ population in China. The TREASURE cohort study was developed in close collaboration with community-based organizations, ensuring culturally appropriate study procedures and improved inclusion of hard-to-reach populations. Participants were recruited through co-created, multi-channel strategies, including on-site recruitment, community outreach, WeChat advertising, and social network referrals. Eligible participants were individuals aged 16 years and older, who self-identified as LGBTQ+ and resided in Chengdu or had primary LGBTQ+ social activities in the area. From August 2023 to November 2025, 10,093 participants enrolled in the baseline investigation from Chengdu City and surrounding areas including cisgender gay men (47.9%), cisgender lesbians (19.0%), cisgender bisexual individuals (5.8%), transgender participants (13.3%), and queer or questioning individuals (14.1%). The first round of cohort follow-up was conducted 12 months after the baseline and every two years thereafter. The baseline survey collected comprehensive data on sociodemographic information, sexual orientation and gender identity related experiences, psychosocial factors, health outcomes, and other topics of interest. Follow-ups are designed to obtain repeated measurements of sociopsychological determinants and health outcomes, as well as additional information on health service needs. The TREASURE cohort documents a substantial burden of psychosocial adversity among LGBTQ+ individuals in China, including high levels of trauma exposure, SOGI-related discrimination and violence, depressive symptoms, PTSD symptoms, suicide risk, and other adverse health outcomes.
