Autism in ICU.
Article in Journal of the Intensive Care Society, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition. Autistic people face challenges as patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) and as providers of healthcare in the ICU. This article describes the experience of autistic people using a neurodiversity-affirming approach. Using the 'Autistic SPACE' framework, the needs of autistic people are described in terms of sensory needs, need for predictability, need for autistic acceptance, communication differences and how to approach them, and the benefits of a person-centred empathy-based approach to autistic people. The approach to autistic patients is described in terms of reasonable adjustments within a framework of positive risk taking. For supervisors and managers of autistic healthcare professionals, autism-friendly adjustments to training and working practice, with rationales, are suggested.
