Vowel errors produced by preschool-age children on a single-word test of articulation.
Article in Clinical linguistics & phonetics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Eighty-four children, age 4-5 years, with and without speech sound disorder (SSD) completed a battery of standardized speech and language tests, including the Goldman-Fristoe Test of Articulation, Third Edition (GFTA-3). Children with SSD produced more vowel errors than children with typical speech abilities. Percentage vowels correct and consonant error variability were highly correlated, suggesting that poorly specified phonological representations affect both consonants and vowels within a child's phonological system. However, the GFTA-3 did not contain sufficient target words to determine full vowel inventory. Using words from the GFTA-3, we present a case study of a child with vowel errors along with a sample analysis of these errors, primarily in terms of consonant-vowel feature interactions. Children who exhibit vowel errors on standardized single-word tests of speech accuracy may benefit from further vowel probes to determine how vowel and consonant errors interact in their phonological systems for more targeted therapy.
