Extending the HealthySteps Program to Improve Access to Autism Spectrum Disorder Assessment Services: A Pilot Study.
Article in Journal of primary care & community health. 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
There has been a significant increase in the need for early identification and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Limited access to care and long wait times are barriers to timely diagnosis. Integrated primary care is a promising avenue for early identification of signs and symptoms of ASD. This paper provides preliminary evidence for the effectiveness of an extension of the HealthySteps (HS) program for identifying and diagnosing ASD within an integrated pediatric primary care setting. The pilot extension resulted in shorter wait times for an ASD evaluation, more timely diagnoses leading to referrals to intervention at a younger age, and increased access to services addressing psychosocial risk factors that may serve as barriers to receiving care. Additionally, this article discusses implications and future directions for adapting the HS model in integrated behavioral health practices.
