No auditory conduction abnormality in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Article in Functional neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurobehavioral developmental disorder characterized by lack of sustained attention and hyperactivity. It has been suggested that asymmetrical conduction of the auditory stimulus in the brainstem plays a role in the pathophysiological process of ADHD. In the present study, the functional integrity of the central auditory pathway was assessed using the auditory brainstem response (ABR), mid-latency response (MLR) and slow vertex response (SVR). Twenty ADHD children and twenty controls were recruited for the study and recordings were done on a computerized evoked potential recorder using the 10-20 system of electrode placement. There emerged no significant difference in absolute peak latencies, interpeak latencies and amplitude of ABR or latency of MLR in the ADHD children as compared with the controls. Prolongation of the SVR latency was found in the children with ADHD versus the controls, but the difference was statistically insignificant. The present study does not suggest any auditory conduction abnormality as a contributory factor in ADHD.
