Analysis of blood sodium level in autism spectrum disorder.
Article in International journal of developmental disabilities, 2024. 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
Introduction: A number of recent studies have brought attention to the involvement of dietary salt and blood sodium levels in the etiopathogenesis of autism. In our study, by comparing the blood sodium levels of children with autism spectrum disease (ASD) and healthy children, we aimed to shed light on the etiopathogenesis of ASD. Method: We retrospectively analyzed the blood sodium levels obtained from the 4-year follow-up of 84 children (42 with ASD and 42 controls). Results: According to the comparison of blood sodium levels obtained from the 4-year follow-up of children in the ASD and control groups, no significant difference was found between the blood sodium levels of both groups. Discussion: The notion that blood sodium levels influence the progression of autism is novel, and the majority of material on this topic comes from animal trials. The results of the few human-focused studies are controversial. More studies are needed to elucidate the role of blood sodium levels and salt consumption in the etiology of autism.
