Short report: Call to action for autism clinicians in response to anti-Black racism.

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
lay abstractBlack autistic people experience anti-Black racism when interacting with service systems and the clinicians in those systems. In this article, we describe the various steps families take to get services and how anti-Black racism makes that process even harder. We discuss research that shows the negative effects of anti-Black racism in autism assessment, treatment, and quality of care. We then provide five recommendations that clinicians should follow to reduce anti-Black racism in the autism field: (1) find Black autistic people and listen to their opinions about your organization, (2) always keep learning about how your profession promotes anti-Black racism, (3) recognize that the process of a clinician learning to be culturally humble takes time and is never "complete," (4) pay attention to all of the steps that families must take to receive autism services and how these steps are even harder for Black individuals, and (5) advocate for your organization to make systems-level changes in their policies and procedures.
