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

Background: Traditional models of applied behavior analysis (ABA) services for those diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) involve time-intensive, labor-intensive, comprehensive, in-person services. The increasing prevalence of ASD in the United States has precipitated a need to identify effective, accessible, and innovative methods to address the needs of those with ASD. Objective: The present descriptive study examines the feasibility and acceptability of a fully virtual, targeted model of ABA service delivery. Methods: This retrospective analysis evaluated changes over time in adaptive behavior, maladaptive behavior, and caregiver satisfaction during focused, virtual ABA therapy delivered by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. Results: Improvements in standard scores across Vineland-3 domains and improvements in quality of life (Child and Family Quality of Life, Second Edition), in addition to high levels of caregiver satisfaction, were observed over time. Conclusions: While causality cannot be determined for these improvements, results support the feasibility and acceptability of this novel ABA service delivery model.
