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 examines the parental use of social media within autism spectrum disorder (ASD) families in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), focusing on perspectives and challenges in promoting social inclusion. Through semi-structured interviews with 21 participants, including 16 females and 5 males aged between 36 and 47, insights were gained into their experiences navigating social media platforms. Using thematic analysis, findings reveal varied approaches to leveraging social media for fostering social inclusion, alongside challenges such as misinformation and stigma. The study underscores the importance of understanding parental strategies and barriers in utilizing social media for supporting children with ASD in the UAE.
