Reducing Barriers to Autism Screening in Community Primary Care: A Pragmatic Trial Using Web-Based Screening.
Trial report in Academic pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 determine whether an intervention addressing both logistical and knowledge barriers to early screening for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) increases evidence-based screening during 18-month well-child visits and primary care providers' (PCPs') perceived self-efficacy in caring for children with ASD.
methodsForty-six PCPs from 10 diverse practices across four counties in Washington State participated. PCPs attended a 2-hour training workshop on early recognition and care for toddlers with ASD and use of a REDCap-based version of the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers-Revised with Follow-up (webM-CHAT-R/F) that provided automated presentation and scoring of follow-up questions. Data were collected at baseline and 6 months following each county's training window. PCPs' screening methods and rates and perceived self-efficacy regarding ASD care were measured by self-report and webM-CHAT-R/F use was measured via REDCap records.
resultsAt follow-up, 8 of the 10 practices were using the webM-CHAT-R/F routinely at 18-month visits. The proportion of PCPs reporting routine M-CHAT screening increased from 82% at baseline to 98% at follow-up (16% increase, 95% confidence interval [CI] 3%-28%; McNemar exact P = .02). The proportion using the M-CHAT-R/F follow-up interview questions increased from 33% to 82% (49% increase, 95% CI 30%-68%, exact McNemar test, P < .001). Significant increases in self-efficacy were found for all seven areas assessed (Ps ≤ .008).
conclusionsThis brief intervention increased PCPs' self-reported valid use of the M-CHAT-R/F at 18 months and their self-efficacy regarding ASD care. Combining educational information with a web-based ASD screen incorporating the M-CHAT-R/F follow-up questions may increase universal ASD screening with improved fidelity.
