Attention to Social and Non-Social Stimuli in a Continuous Performance Test in Autistic and Typically Developed Participants: An ERP Study.
Article in Journal of autism and developmental disorders, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by a range of symptoms, including restrictive behaviors and deficient social skills. We investigated EEG correlates of social attention, face, and non-face perception by applying a continuous performance test (CPT) with two different sets of stimuli (letters and faces). The CPT required participants to respond to a specific target stimulus (e.g., "X") only when it followed a specific preceding stimulus (e.g., "O"). Event-related potential (ERP) components, including P100, N170, P200, N250, P300, and continuous negative variation (CNV), were analyzed in 19 young adults with ASD and 19 typically developed (TD) individuals that were matched for intelligence, age, and gender. TD participants had higher accuracies only for the target condition and regardless of stimulus type. No ERP differences between the two groups were found for the CPT with letter stimuli. By contrast, autistic individuals exhibited lower amplitudes of P300 and CNV during face CPT. Results suggest diminished allocation of attentional resources and response preparation towards socially relevant face stimuli.
