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

Prematurity and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are risk factors for alterations in language development. Their coexistence, frequent in twin pregnancies, may result in atypical communicative profiles that require specific interventions. This case report analyzed the linguistic, cognitive, and socioemotional development of two premature twins with ASD, relating the results to the therapeutic strategies applied. Standardized tests were applied to measure cognitive, linguistic, adaptive, and socioemotional development. The intervention combined the TEACCH, ABA, DIR/Floortime, and Hanen-More Than Words models. Both children showed significant impairments in communication, executive functions, and autonomy, with differentiated clinical profiles. Individualized interventions favored advances in functional language, emotional regulation, and routines, although challenges in language generalization and pragmatics persisted. The combination of prematurity and ASD creates complex challenges that require individualized therapeutic approaches. Early and intensive intervention, based on structured and relational approaches, is useful to promote functional and communicative development.
