Distance delivery of a parent-implemented language intervention for young boys with fragile X syndrome.
Article in Autism & developmental language impairments. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
backgroundIn addition to significant cognitive delays, boys with fragile X syndrome display phenotypic characteristics that include delays in language, inattention, social anxiety, and escape-maintained challenging behaviors. Despite these challenges, families affected by fragile X syndrome often have limited access to center-based intervention programs.
methodsThe present study utilized a multiple baseline design across participants to examine the preliminary effectiveness of a 12-week, parent-implemented spoken language intervention for three 5- to 7-year-old boys with fragile X syndrome. The goal of the intervention was to teach the biological mothers of each boy to use a set of verbally responsive language support strategies while participating in shared book reading activities with her child. All aspects of the intervention, including pre- and post-treatment measures, were delivered into the family's home via distance video teleconferencing.
resultsResults from this study provide preliminary support for the efficacy of this parent-implemented language intervention approach by demonstrating generalized improvements in both targeted maternal strategy use and measures of child spoken language.
conclusionsThe present study expands upon prior language intervention research utilizing distance delivery of services for families affected by fragile X syndrome. Additionally, the study provides early support for the feasibility of collecting pre- and post-treatment assessments at a distance.
