Let's use a RefPtr to protect usage of `axParent`, since we call axParent->correspondingControlForLabelElement() which does non-trivial work that could potentially destroy it. We can also use C++17-style multi-condition if-statements to make this more concise:

if (RefPtr axParent = notification.first->parentObject(); axParent && axParent->isLabel()) {
    if (RefPtr correspondingControl = axParent->correspondingControlForLabelElement())
        updateNode(axParent->correspondingControl.get());
}
break;

correspondingControlForLabelElement does a bit of work, so let's only call it once. Something like this might work:

if (RefPtr correspondingControl = axObject.isLabel() ? axObject.correspondingControlForLabelElement() : nullptr)
    updateNode(*correspondingControl);

+            if (RefPtr axParent = notification.first->parentObject(); axParent && axParent->isLabel()) {
+                if (RefPtr correspondingControl = axParent->correspondingControlForLabelElement())
+                    updateNode(correspondingControl.get());
+            }
+            break;

The update of the related nodes and properties should happen in AXIsolatedTree::updateNode. So I would leave this as before and move this additional logic to AXIsolatedTree.

I see that you are already doing part of it in in here, so do the whole thing here.

We want to do this update when AXTextChanged, but AXIsolatedTree::updateNode doesn't know which notification was sent—so this allows us to conditionally do the update.
