Translation, Cultural Adaption, and Examination of the Psychometric Properties of the Persian Version of "First Year Inventory," an Autism Screening Tool.

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 Disorders (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with challenges in social communication and restricted, repetitive behaviors. Early diagnosis is vital for effective interventions. In low- and middle-income countries like Iran, reliable screening tools for ASD are scarce. This study aims to translate, culturally adapt, and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the "First Year Inventory, version 2" (FYI) for use in Iran. The FYI was translated into Persian using the Watson and DuBay (2019) method. A panel of ten experts assessed its validity. Based on their feedback, necessary cultural and linguistic adjustments were made. A pre-test was conducted with parents of typically developing infants, and psychometric properties such as test-retest reliability, internal consistency, and criterion validity were evaluated. The study translated and culturally adapted the FYI for screening ASD in 12-month-old infants. Data from 110 participants showed good psychometric properties, with excellent discriminative ability in distinguishing ASD from typically developing infants and children with developmental delays. The adaptation of FYI addressed linguistic, cultural, and technical challenges, confirming its applicability in Iran. The tool showed strong validity and reliability in distinguishing ASD. However, cultural nuances in the social-communication domain highlighted the need for further refinement. Future research should focus on larger samples and integrate FYI with other diagnostic tools for improved screening accuracy.
