Dysphagia in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Scoping Review.
Review in World journal of otorhinolaryngology - head and neck surgery, 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
Objective: There are four phases of swallowing: oral preparatory, oral transit, oropharyngeal, and esophageal. Disruption of any phase(s) can lead to dysphagia. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) children have a high rate of dysphagia compared with neurotypical peers. This scoping review aims to identify the phases of swallow affected in ASD children and highlight the role of the otolaryngologist in evaluating dysphagia in ASD children. Data Sources: Pubmed, Embase, APA PsycInfo, and Google Scholar. Review Methods: A scoping review using the above databases was performed of studies from January 2003 to September 2024 evaluating dysphagia in ASD children. Two reviewers independently screened all abstracts, and three reviewers independently performed full-text screening to ensure studies met predefined inclusion criteria. Results: Of the 637 unique abstracts identified, 20 articles were included. Oral phase swallowing was evaluated in 19 (95%) studies, with food selectivity ( Conclusion: While oral phase dysphagia in ASD children is commonly reported, there is limited information on oropharyngeal and esophageal dysphagia. Further research is needed to identify ENT-specific symptoms associated with dysphagia in ASD children, as otolaryngologists play a crucial role in diagnosing and treating anatomic abnormalities that contribute to dysphagia.
