1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purpose of reviewDespite the increasing prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) among youth, disparities exist when it comes to access to diagnostic assessment and intervention of ASD in clinical and school settings. A review of the literature on sociocultural issues that contribute to these disparities would allow psychiatrists, clinicians, and researchers to better understand these challenges and aid in the development of culturally responsive approaches to support racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse families of youth with ASD. RECENT

findingsDisparities in ASD services are primarily due to system-level factors, including access to information or healthcare, stigma, and discrimination. Similarly, interactional factors, such as language/communication barriers, a lack of trust in professionals, and limited training in cultural responsiveness, can hinder support for diverse families of youth with ASD. This review focuses on several areas: (1) structural inequities that contribute to disparities in ASD services, (2) sociocultural issues in assessment and diagnosis, (3) sociocultural issues in interventions and service use, and (4) neurodiversity. This review underscores the importance of including diverse samples in ASD research to improve understanding of the strengths, challenges, perspectives, and preferences of underrepresented and underserved families of youth with ASD. These efforts can lead to culturally responsive service delivery.
