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

Objectives: Previous empirical evidence suggests that sociocultural dynamics and social skills of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are related. Therefore, the current study investigated (1) the relationship between social skills and autism symptomology, and (2) the mean difference between social skills and sociocultural dynamics (gender, sibling dynamics, family system). Methods: A sample of 100 children with ASD, age-ranged 7 to 12 ( Results: Findings showed significant mean differences in social skills with gender, sibling dynamics, and family system in children with ASD. Boys with ASD showed higher social skills in terms of social awareness as compared to girls with ASD. Children with ASD having older siblings showed higher social skills in terms of self-management, responsible decision-making, self-awareness, and relationship skills as compared to children with ASD with younger or no siblings. Children with ASD living in nuclear families showed better self-management, responsible decision-making, and self-awareness as compared to children with ASD living in joint families. Conclusions: Understanding the sociocultural dynamics will contribute to scientific knowledge and also hold a base for designing and tailoring effective interventions for children with ASD.
