1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 characteristics of oral narrative discourse in children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

methodsThe study included schoolchildren aged 6 to 10 years, divided into two groups: ASD group (n = 26), with oral children diagnosed with ASD; and control group (n = 26), with typically developing children. Sociodemographic data were collected through questionnaires applied to parents/guardians, and the schoolchildren were evaluated regarding intellectual estimation and oral narrative discourse (partial retelling, total retelling, and story comprehension); the story was read aloud to them.

resultsThe schoolchildren belonged to socioeconomic classes A/B, and most mothers had a bachelor's degree. No schoolchild was classified as intellectually disabled. The oral narrative instrument identified a difference between the groups in the partial retelling test; the ASD group performed worse. There was no difference in total retelling or oral comprehension. Regarding the morphosyntax used in constructing narrative sentences, a difference was identified in the use of nouns and prepositions, with poorer performance in the ASD group. No significant differences were observed in the use of other morphosyntactic categories.

conclusionSchoolchildren with ASD, in favorable sociodemographic conditions, present oral narrative performance similar to that of typically developing children, with occasional differences.
