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
Differences in audiovisual processing may influence language development in autism. We characterized preferential looking to temporally synchronous audiovisual speech in fifty infants (28 elevated-likelihood [54% male]; 22 population-level-likelihood [50% male]) aged 12-18 months. We first tested whether preferential looking to synchronous audiovisual speech differed between groups; population-level-likelihood infants demonstrated greater preferential looking to synchronous audiovisual speech relative to elevated-likelihood infants by 18 months. We then assessed whether preferential looking to synchronous audiovisual speech was related to concurrent expressive language (1) directly, (2) via vocalization complexity, and (3) as moderated by age, sex, and familial likelihood group. Infants completed an eye tracking task and standardized communication and language assessments at 12-18 months. The population-level-likelihood infants demonstrated greater preferential looking to synchronous audiovisual speech relative to elevated-likelihood infants by 18 months. Preferential looking to synchronous audiovisual speech was not directly and unconditionally associated with concurrent expressive language. However, moderation and mediation analyses showed that preferential looking to synchronous audiovisual speech was significantly associated with concurrent expressive language through increased vocalization complexity in male infants. Implications for research, theory, and clinical practice are discussed.
