Diagnostic Accuracy of Parents' Evaluation of Developmental Status (PEDS), PEDS Developmental Milestones, and PEDS Combined in Indian Children Aged Less than 2 Years.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo assess the diagnostic accuracy of Parent's Evaluation of Developmental Status (PEDS), PEDS Developmental Milestones (PEDS:DM) and PEDS Combined for developmental screening of Indian children aged less than 2 y.
methodA hospital-based study of diagnostic accuracy was conducted over 17 mo. Children under 24 mo (n = 180) were enrolled after exclusion of severe illnesses or known neurodevelopment disorders. The index tools included standardized Hindi translations of PEDS and PEDS:DM. The reference tool was Developmental Assessment Scale for Indian Infants (DASII). Both were administered by blinded researchers. Parameters of diagnostic accuracy were computed.
resultsThere were 13 (7.2%) failures in PEDS, 119 (66.1%) in PEDS:DM and 119 (66.1%) in PEDS Combined. DASII identified 3 children with developmental delay. Sensitivity (Sn) [95% CI] of PEDS was 33.3 [0.8-90.6] and Specificity (Sp) 93.2 [88.5-96.5]. The Sn and Sp of both PEDS:DM and PEDS Combined were 100 [29.2-100] and 34.5 [27.5-42.0], respectively.
conclusionsHindi translations of PEDS, PEDS:DM and PEDS Combined are not suitable for developmental screening of children less than 2 y due to suboptimal diagnostic accuracy.
