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

This study investigated whether linguistic proficiencies in students' first language (L1)- Spanish-and English (L2) moderated the response to intensive reading intervention for sixth- and seventh-grade multilingual learners (MLs) with reading difficulties. We used confirmatory factor analysis to estimate proficiency scores in English and Spanish using measures of expressive and receptive vocabulary, syntax, and grammar. We then used latent variable moderated structural equation modeling to evaluate how proficiency in English and Spanish moderated the effect of treatment on students' reading outcomes in response to intervention. Two important findings occurred. First, the overall linguistic proficiencies of the sample were below average, suggesting the prevalence of low L1 and L2 may be high amongst the population of middle gradeMLs with reading difficulties. Second, we observed only one significant moderation effect: the effect of treatment on students' letter and word recognition was statistically significantly higher for students with higher English proficiency.
