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
Introduction: Migration is a growing phenomenon and has impact on sexual and reproductive health outcomes, such as an increased burden for STIs, sexual violence and unintended pregnancies. Equitable access to sexual health care is of great importance for young people from ethnic minorities (EMs). In this study, we aimed to determine the proportional representation of first- and second generation EMs under 25 years at Dutch Sexual Health Centers (SHCs) compared to native Dutch citizens. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, coded health records data of 270,927 persons in the age group of 15 till 24 years visiting SHCs between 2016 and 2021 were included. Health records data was combined with census tract data (Statistics Netherlands) to average annual calculate consultation rates, i.e., dividing 6-year-average of the number of first consultations of a patient in the study period belonging to a specific EM by the total number of citizens in the age group of 15 till 24 years belonging to that EM in the Netherlands in 2021, multiplied by 1000. Results: The consultation rate for native Dutch patients was 22.0 per 1000 persons (95 %CI: 21.8-22.2, 18.9, 19.8 (95 %CI: 19.8-20.4) for first-generation EMs and 18.4 (95 %CI: 18.0-18.8) for second-generation EMs. In both first- and second generation EMs, consultation rates for patients from Turkey, Morocco, Eastern Europe and Asia were lower than for native Dutch patients. Consultation rates among patients from Africa were lower for first-generation EMs than native Dutch patients. Consultation rates among patients from Indonesia, Suriname/Dutch Antilles, Latin America and other western countries were equal or higher than among native Dutch patients. Discussion: Our study showed that several EMs were underserved in Dutch sexual health care, suggesting lower access to care and indicating the need for culturally sensitive approaches to increase access. Using consultation rates is informative to indicate inequalities in access to sexual health care among EMs.
