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

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a series of neurodevelopmental disorders that may affect a patient's social, behavioral, and communication abilities. As a typical mental illness, ASD is not a single disorder. ASD is often divided into subtypes, such as autism, Asperger's, and pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS). Studying the differences among brain networks of the subtypes has great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of ASD. To date, many studies have analyzed the brain activity of ASD as a single mental disorder, whereas few have focused on its subtypes. To address this problem, we explored whether indices derived from functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data exhibited significant dissimilarities between subtypes. Utilizing a brain pattern feature extraction method from fMRI based on tensor decomposition, amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation and its fractional values of fMRI, and gray matter volume derived from MRI, impairments of function in the subcortical network and default mode network of autism were found to lead to major differences from the other two subtypes. Our results provide a systematic comparison of the three common ASD subtypes, which may provide evidence for the discrimination between ASD subtypes.
