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

objectiveRecently the relationship between alleles frequency distribution, drug response and the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), has been actively researched. We investigated the association between the genetic type, alleles and drug response for the dopamine receptor D4 (DRD4) gene in ADHD patients in Korea.

methodsOne hundred fourteen patients diagnosed with ADHD according to the the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders version IV (DSM-IV) diagnostic criteria were selected for the study. The clinical features of patients were confirmed by Korean version of Conners' parent rating scale, Attention deficit Diagnostic System, Korean version of Spielberger state-trait anxiety scale. Blood samples were taken from the 198 subjects. DNA was extracted from blood lymphocytes, PCR was performed for DRD4 Polymorphism. Alleles, genotype frequencies, the Clinical Global Impression (CGI) improvement score were compared using the chi-square test. Korean ADHD Rating Scale (K-ARS) and CGI severity scores were compared using the t-test.

resultsIn comparing the ADHD with 4/4 repeats group and without the ADHD with 4/4 repeats group, no significant difference was seen between the DRD4 genetic type, alleles distribution, and CGI drug response.

conclusionAs a result, it is viewed that there is no relationship between ADHD and DRD4, but final decision is indefinite. Follow up studies with larger patient or pure subgroups are expected.
