Adapting Psychological Therapies for Individuals With Intellectual Disabilities: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Clinical psychology & psychotherapy. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
The aim of this systematic review was to identify how psychotherapies have been adapted to suit the needs of people with intellectual disabilities. A comprehensive literature search garnered 39,777 studies, which were screened for eligibility. Systematic searches, following PRISMA guidelines, identified 122 studies that met eligibility criteria, and findings were synthesised using framework synthesis. Six overarching adaptation categories were identified: (1) multisensory methods, (2) activities, (3) communication, (4) delivery medium, (5) additional support and (6) structure. Adaptations were primarily used to increase engagement, promote retention of information and improve communication between clients and clinicians. While a group of adaptations that aimed to improve the acceptability and accessibility of psychotherapy for people with intellectual disabilities were identified, larger studies are required to understand their efficacy.
