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

objectiveTo examine associations between measurements of neurodevelopment and psychosocial health status at age 8 and 16 years in patients with repaired dextro-transposition of the great arteries. STUDY

designIn the 16-year follow-up of the Boston Circulatory Arrest Study, 137 parents completed the Child Health Questionnaire-Parent Form-50, of whom 135 had completed the Child Health Questionnaire-Parent Form-50 when their child was age 8 years. Psychosocial and physical summary scores were used to assess change in health status from age 8 to 16 years. A comprehensive battery of neurodevelopmental testing was performed at ages 8 and 16 years to examine associations with adolescent health status.

resultsLower psychosocial summary scores of 16 year old subjects with dextro-transposition of the great arteries were highly associated with numerous concurrent domains of neurodevelopmental function, most notably with higher (worse) scores on the Conners' Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder/Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-4th Edition Scales (parent: r = -0.62, P < .001; adolescent: r = -0.43, P < .001) and the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function Global Executive Composite (parent: r = -0.66, P < .001; adolescent: r = -0.39, P < .001). Psychosocial and physical summary scores tracked from ages 8 to 16 years (r = 0.44 and 0.47, respectively, P < .001 for each). Higher (worse) scores of multiple attention measures at age 8 years predicted worse psychosocial summary scores at age 16 years.

conclusionsAttention deficits at age 8 years were highly predictive of worse psychosocial health status in adolescence. Further studies are needed to assess whether treatment of childhood attention deficit hyperactivity disorder could improve adolescent well-being.
