Labyrinth scale in the differential diagnosis between autism spectrum disorder and language disorder.
Article in CoDAS, 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
purposeTo analyze the contribution of the Labyrinth Scale in the differential diagnosis of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Language Disorder (LD) aged between 2 and 4 years.
methodsThe sample consisted of 38 children diagnosed with LD, 48 with ASD, and 28 with Typical Development (TD). The LD group, evaluated in private clinics and school clinics, consisted of children with language delays confirmed by the Dimensional Inventory of Child Development Assessment (IDADI), as well as speech-language pathology evaluation with instruments such as the Language Development Assessment (LDA), ABFW, among others. They were also evaluated using the Labyrinth Scale. Those responsible signed the Free and Informed Consent Term (FICT). Statistical analysis was performed using JASP software, version 0.15, one-way ANOVA test, and Scheffé post hoc tests.
resultsDifferentiated scores were demonstrated between the LD, ASD, and TD groups both in general terms and in the subscales of the Labyrinth Scale.
conclusionThe Labyrinth Scale allowed differentiating the LD, ASD, and TD groups, showing that the instrument has specificity to perform the differential diagnosis.
