Sibling Relationship Profiles of Autistic Youths in a Social-Ecological Context.

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 identify profiles of autistic youths' sibling relations and examined if social-ecological variables (i.e., youth characteristics, family and caregiver functioning, peer relations, academic performance) were associated with these profiles.
methodCaregivers (N = 2,142; 88.1% mothers) of autistic youths aged 6-17 years (M = 11.07 years; SD = 3.17; 80.1% male) completed electronic measures assessing social-ecological variables and youths' sibling relations. We used a latent profile analysis (LPA) to define sibling relation profiles based on the qualities (emotional support, companionship, conflict, and criticism) of relations between autistic youths and their closest-in-age siblings. We performed ANOVAs to compare sibling profiles on social-ecological variables.
resultsThe LPA yielded a 3-profile solution: a positive group (18.2%), a negative group (17.2%), and a low engagement group (64.5%). ANOVAs and χ
conclusionMost sibling relations among autistic youth fit a low engagement profile based on caregiver report. Positive sibling relations were linked with positive functioning in other social-ecological domains. The nature of these linkages warrants further investigation, particularly using longitudinal, multi-informant, and mixed-method designs.
