Effects of Washed Fecal Bacteria Transplantation in Sleep Quality, Stool Features and Autism Symptomatology: A Chinese Preliminary Observational Study.
Article in Neuropsychiatric disease and treatment, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07756255 (Feasibility, Safety and Tolerability of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in an Adolescent Population With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), which is not on this map. Cited by 23 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
Purpose: Autism spectrum disorder is a highly complex neurological and psychosocial disorder characterized by social dysfunction, severe reduction in speech, and a single stereotyped behavior. The treatment methods are currently limited, and children with autism generally suffer from constipation and sleep disorders. It is urgent to find an alternative psychotropic drug, given the drug dependence and adverse reactions that may occur with long-term medication. Patients and Methods: This retrospective study included 49 children with autism at the first affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Pharmaceutical University, who received washed fecal microbiota transplantation (WMT) treatment between June 2019 and July 2021 and compared the sleep disorder scores between the constipation group, control group and blank group. Results: Second WMT could significantly improve the sleep disorder scores in the constipation group ( Conclusion: WMT could relieve constipation and improve sleep disorders in children with autism, with no deterioration in stool morphology and sleep disorders in other children. Moreover, there were no obvious serious adverse clinical events after WMT.
