Pediatric Primary Care Perspectives on Integrated Mental Health Care for Autism.
Article in Academic pediatrics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
objectiveTimely identification of mental health needs and linkage to services is critical to provide comprehensive care for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Pediatric primary care is well-positioned to facilitate this process through integrated care approaches. As a first step toward mental health integration, this study applied the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, and Sustainment framework to characterize determinants of implementing integrated care practices for ASD.
methodsSixty pediatric primary care providers and leaders from 3 organizations completed focus groups and surveys about identification of mental health needs in children with ASD and access to mental health services. Findings were integrated to examine convergence (ie, do the 2 methods confirm or find similar results) and expansion (ie, do the 2 methods provide insights beyond either method alone).
resultsResults converged regarding 3 primary influences to integrated care practices for ASD: 1) limited specialized mental health referral options for ASD, 2) unique structural characteristics of the mental health system act as barriers to accessing care, and 3) caregivers differ in the degree to which they understand co-occurring mental health conditions and pursue recommended services. Qualitative results provided expansion by highlighting unique implementation considerations (eg, alignment with health care delivery priorities and values) based on primary care characteristics.
conclusionsFindings confirm need for a tailored approach for linking children with ASD to appropriate mental health treatment. Results yield insight into the needs for organizational capacity to support integrated care and provide direction toward adapting an integrated mental health care model for children with ASD.
