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: Detransition refers to stopping, shifting, or reversal of an initial gender transition. Some people detransition temporarily, and later re-start a transition process, or retransition. Despite calls for research and care surrounding detransition/retransition, these experiences remain poorly understood by care providers and LGBTQ2S+ community-serving organizations. Methods: Between December 2023-April 2024, a cross-sectional survey was administered to 957 individuals (aged 16 and older) living in the US or Canada who self-identified with experiences of detransition. Participants were recruited Results: Participants reported a wide range of current gender identities/expressions such as: woman ( Conclusion: Greater understanding and community-led care relating to detransition/retransition from an LGBTQ2S+-affirming lens can help to mitigate minority stressors and distress associated with these experiences.
