Sensory processing, emotional and behavioural challenges in children with autism spectrum disorder and attention deficit hyperactive disorder.
Article in International journal of developmental disabilities, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Previous studies have found sensory processing abnormalities, behavioural, and emotional challenges in children with developmental disorders, particularly autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. There is little research on the sensory, emotional, and behavioural differences between individuals with autism spectrum disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) across age cohorts. Aim: This study examined the correlation and differences in sensory processing, emotional, and behavioural challenges in children with autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and typically developing children. This study also examined these characteristics in two age groups: 4-11-year-olds and 12-18-year-olds. Methodology: The study included 362 mothers of their children among three groups: 123 with ASD, 100 with ADHD, and 139 from the typical population. The Short Sensory Profile (SSP) and Child Behaviour Checklist were administered to participants along with a demographic profile. The participants were between 25-50. Pearson correlation, MANOVA and MANCOVA were used to fulfil research objectives. Results and discussion: The study found a link between tactile sensitivity, sensation seeking, auditory filtering, and behavioural and emotional issues in children with ASD and ADHD. Sensory features also predicted emotional and behavioural issues in these populations. The MANCOVA analysis showed significant variations in sensory processing, behavioural, and emotional issues among populations, controlling for age groups. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study shows the need for early diagnosis of sensory processing impairments in these groups and developmental-stage-specific therapies. The study highlights the need for longitudinal research to understand sensory processing patterns, emotional, and behavioural issues, and development, particularly in India.
