Comparison of Receptive Verbal Abilities Assessed Using the KBIT-2 and BPVS3 in Adults With Down Syndrome.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Down syndrome (DS) is the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability. There is, however, considerable variation in cognitive abilities between those with DS, with some individuals scoring at floor on some tests, particularly for age-standardised outcomes. This variation and these floor effects can pose a problem for comparing and combining study populations when different standardised measures have been used to assess individuals' cognitive abilities, for example combining results across studies to investigate genetic or other factors associated with cognitive abilities. To facilitate this comparison and combination of study populations assessed using different tests of verbal abilities, we administered two commonly used standardised tests of receptive language, the Kaufmann Brief Intelligence Test 2 (KBIT-2) verbal scale and the British Picture Vocabulary Scale 3 (BPVS3) to 34 adults with DS (age range 19-59) to investigate relationships between outcomes for these two tests. We found a very strong correlation between raw scores for the KBIT-2 verbal scale and the BPVS3, and determined equations to convert between scores for the two tests. Intraclass correlations between the two scales for age-equivalents and calculated
