Development and Initial Testing of a Health-Related Independence Measure for Autistic Young Adults as Reported by Caregivers.
Article in Autism in adulthood, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Becoming an adult comes with education, work, living, and health-related transitions. Health care transition (HCT) services help adolescents prepare for a smooth transition to adult care, ensure health insurance retention, and promote adolescents' independent management of health care and life needs. Lack of HCT services can result in negative outcomes such as unmet needs, overmedication, and loss of decision-making authority. Autistic young adults (AYA) are half as likely to receive HCT services compared with special needs young adults. Furthermore, there are no HCT readiness measures that address the unique needs of AYA. Methods: This study used a mixed-methods approach to develop and test a holistic caregiver-reported measure of HCT readiness for AYA Health-Related Independence (HRI). The phases used to create and test the HRI measure included: (1) construct and question topic development through qualitative data collection with AYA and caregivers; (2) question development with clinicians and caregivers; and (3) initial question testing utilizing cognitive interviews and pretesting of the instrument with caregivers. Results: Measure constructs were developed based on qualitative findings from AYA ( Conclusion: The development of the HRI measure was a comprehensive and iterative process. This article highlights the measurement development process and its potential impact on AYA, caregivers, and clinicians. Lay summary:
