Developmental Screening Tools Used with First Nations Populations: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Developmental surveillance and screening is recommended for all children under five years of age, especially for those from at-risk populations such as First Nations children. No review to date has, however, evaluated the use of developmental screening tools with First Nations children. This review aimed to examine and synthesise the literature on developmental screening tools developed for, or used with, First Nations populations children aged five years or younger. A PRISMA-compliant systematic review was performed in the PsychInfo, PubMed, and Embase databases. Additional searches were also undertaken. In total 444 articles were identified and 13 were included in the final review. Findings indicated that several developmental screening tools have been administered with First Nations children. Most tools, however, have only been evaluated in one study. Results also found that no studies evaluated actions taken following positive screening results. More research evaluating the accuracy, acceptability, and feasibility of using developmental screeners with First Nations children is required before widespread implementation of developmental screening in clinical settings with First Nations children is recommended.
