Barriers to the Participation of Small African American-Owned Technology Firm Entrepreneurs in the Federal Assistive Technology-Research and Development Ecosystem: A Companion Delphi Study.
Article in Journal of rehabilitation, 2025. 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
The preceding companion Delphi study represented an analysis of HBCU-based science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) research scientists' perspectives on challenges to participating in the United States (U.S.) federal assistive technology- research and development (AT-R&D) ecosystem (i.e., National Science Foundation [NSF], National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research [NIDILRR], and National Institutes of Health [NIH]). Here in this companion Delphi study, we analyzed data collected on small African American-owned technology firm entrepreneurs', including those with disabilities, perspectives that can be considered for enhancing self-employment and federal AT-R&D participation. The panelists identified the six most important barriers as limited entrepreneur skill and knowledge development; insufficient investment of and access to capital loans, facilities, and human resources; restrictive historically Black college/university (HBCU) and technology firm collaborations; limited professional networks; evolving labor market/supply demands; and unavailability of capable mentors. Recommendations that can be considered for policy and systems modifications to stimulate the creation of new small AT-R&D businesses and high paying jobs in technology and artificial intelligence (AI) are presented.
