The Role of the Gut Microbiota and the Immune System in the Development of Autism.
Review in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are neurodevelopmental disorders that present with social skills and communication challenges, restricted interest, and repetitive behavior. The specific cause of autism is not well understood yet. However, numerous studies indicated that environmental and genetic factors, dysregulated immune response, and alterations to the balance and content of the gut microbiota are implemented in the development of autism. Many non-pharmacological interventions are nominated to manage autism, including family support services and psychoeducational methods. Moreover, different pharmacological therapy modalities are recommended for children with ASD. Learning more about the brain, immune system, and gut connections could assist in early diagnosis and treatment of this devastating neurodevelopmental disorders as an early intervention in ASD could improve a child's overall development. We gathered data from relevant previously published articles on PubMed to evaluate the role of the gut microbiota and the immune system on the development of autism..
