Neonatal Risk, Maternal Sensitive-Responsiveness and Infants' Joint Attention: Moderation by Stressful Contexts.

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
Neonatal risk factors have been associated with atypical development in various areas of social communication, including joint attention (JA), but little is known about factors in the early caregiving environment that can modify the negative implications of neonatal risk. The present study examines the links between neonatal risk and infants' JA, while considering the mediating role of maternal sensitive-responsiveness and the moderating roles of stressful contexts. One hundred and eighty-two families with infants (50% female) born in a wide range of gestational ages and birthweights participated in the study. Neonatal risk was assessed shortly after birth using three indicators: birthweight, gestational age, and degree of medical risk. At age 6 months, maternal sensitive-responsiveness to infants' foci of attention was rated and maternal anxiety and household chaos were measured. Infants' JA behaviors were assessed at age 12 months. A moderated-mediation model revealed that maternal anxiety symptoms and household chaos moderated the links between neonatal risk, maternal sensitive-responsiveness, and infants' responding to JA. Specifically, neonatal risk was related to less maternal sensitive-responsiveness only when maternal anxiety symptoms were above average levels, but not when anxiety symptoms were low. Moreover, maternal sensitive-responsiveness was positively related to infants' responding to JA behaviors when household chaos was low but not when it was high. These findings highlight the complex nature of the links between infants' early biological risk and caregiving environments in the development of social communication skills.
