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

Physicians are often the first health care professionals to encounter children that display symptoms associated with developmental disorders such as autism. Unfortunately, there is lack of information regarding what strategies physicians should adopt in treating these symptoms and where they should look to refer individuals who present with severe symptoms of autism. This paper provides some preliminary information regarding the current behavioral assessment and treatment strategies in order to help physicians identify and make appropriate recommendations for successful treatment when working with autistic children. The essential components of successful treatment for autism are outlined; some preliminary treatment methodologies that physicians can recommend parents or caregivers attempt are also highlighted. In addition, the current behavioral treatment strategies used for acquisition of social skills and language are covered as well as methodologies for the reduction of maladaptive behavior in children with autism.
