'One Size Does Not Fit All'. The Voices of Professionals Regarding the Delivery of Relationships and Sexuality Education to Children and Young People With Intellectual Disability: Findings From a UK-Wide Qualitative Study.
Article in Journal of applied research in intellectual disabilities : JARID, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRelationships and sexuality education (RSE) is critical for children and young people with intellectual disabilities; yet, it is a contentious issue. This study explored the views and experiences of professionals regarding RSE programmes.
methodSemi-structured individual interviews were conducted with 16 health, social care and education professionals. Professionals came from across the UK (England n = 5, Scotland n = 1, Wales n = 2, Northern Ireland n = 8). Interview data were subjected to thematic analysis.
resultsThree themes emerged: (i) preparation for success; (ii) effective communication and lifelong learning and (iii) individual support and resources. Professionals were motivated and committed to offer the best learning experience possible. There is inconsistency in delivery across programmes, taking time and effort to develop.
conclusionsThe development of structured programmes and tailored resources is necessary to enable practitioners to effectively support and deliver RSE.
