Early speech therapy intervention in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Article in CoDAS, 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
purposeTo analyze the results of speech therapy intervention based on the principles of the DIR/Floortime model in early childhood in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
methodsA longitudinal, quantitative, and prospective manner with direct and indirect intervention, whose target population was children up to three years and eleven months of age, with atypical language development associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder. It led twenty-four speech therapy early intervention sessions based on the DIR Floortime model, in addition to two initial assessment sessions, and two sessions for final assessment.
resultsTwenty children completed the research, with an average age of 29 months at the initial assessment and 36 months in the final assessment. Among the children, 90% already had a diagnosis of Infantile Autism (F84.0). Comparing the results of the Pragmatic Profile, There was an average increase of 0.8 communicative acts and 6.66% in the occupation of the communicative space with statistical significance, as well as a decrease in the use of gestures. There was also a positive glow with moderate significance between "Intentional two-way communication" and the number of acts expressed per minute (the greater the capacity for intentional two-way communication, the greater the number of acts per minute).
conclusionWhen analyzing the pre- and post-intervention results, a consistent and statistically significant evolution is observed. In social communication, skills are interconnected and need to be worked on in a correlational manner, observing the individual needs of each child.
