Chewing efficiency in children with motor speech disorders.
Article in European archives of paediatric dentistry : official journal of the European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeThis study aimed to investigate chewing efficiency in children with speech sound disorders (SSD). With a focus on those with motor speech disorders (MSD).
methodA clinical sample of 101 children with SSDs (78 with MSD), aged 4-9 years, and a control group of 76 typically developing (TD) children participated. Chewing efficiency was assessed using the two-colour Hue-Check
resultsAn independent samples t-test showed that children with SSD chewed less efficiently than TD children. A one-way ANOVA revealed that children with MSD + (i.e., all children with MSD who also had concomitant language-oriented diagnoses [LD] and/or oral motor developmental delay [ODD]) aged 7-9 years had significantly lower chewing efficiency than age-matched TD peers (p < 0.001, η
conclusionChildren with MSD demonstrated reduced chewing efficiency compared to their TD peers. Possibly reflecting a broader, not yet fully understood, symptom complex. Oral motor developmental delay (ODD) was common across the entire SSD group. These findings underline the importance of future research exploring symptom interrelations and guiding targeted interventions.
