Venous Thrombotic Risk in Transgender Women Undergoing Estrogen Therapy: A Systematic Review and Metaanalysis.

A study which concluded the risk for venothrombotic disease due to estrogen therapy may be overstated and further study is required to have reason limit it's prescription based on the commonly feared factors (age, tobacco use, obesity) specifically with more data on risk factors in relation to routes of administration.

The Papers page is a thorough compendium of up-to-date trans-specific research with a high quality of evidence, as well as guides on ways to access them, or find more research.

It is at the heart of all our goals stated in the "About Us" tab below, and one of the more polished articles on the wiki having been curated by our research librarian LilianaUmbra.

Useful library tools

The following tools may be helpful for developing lists of your favourite books, or finding copies to purchase online or borrow from your local libraries. Feel free to send suggestions to Umbra

  • Worldcat is the largest online library catalogue in the world, useful for both finding available copies of books on this list at local libraries worldwide, and collecting cataloguing data (such as authorship, edition, available versions in other languages ISBN, ISSN, etc). Simply search by ISBN or title to find a detailed listing including branches in your area.
  • Goodreads is a very useful tool for organizing reading lists (called shelves), gathering reviews, finding books organized by genre, and connect with book selling and library sites such as Amazon and Worldcat.
  • Library Extension (Chrome) an extension that connects to the major online book vendors as well as Goodreads and provides you with how many copies are available within your local library branches.
