Editorial: Can omega-3 fatty acids improve executive functioning? Will this reduce ADHD and depression?
Article in Journal of child psychology and psychiatry, and allied disciplines, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Families with children who have neurodevelopmental disorders and mental health problems often opt to use nonmainstream and complementary medicines including dietary supplements. One dietary supplement popular with parents seeking treatment for both depression and ADHD is omega-3 fatty acids. This has led to much research and scientific debate dedicated to examining the efficacy of omega-3 supplementation as a treatment for both depression and ADHD.
