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

Neurofeedback training (NFT) provides strategies for children with ADHD to achieve changes on the neurophysiological and behavioral level to attenuate ADHD symptoms. We assume self-efficacy (an "active attitude"), a core variable in successful NFT. In a randomized, double-blind controlled study, we investigated the impact of a "placebo instruction" on the EEG-regulation performance during two sessions of Theta-Beta-NFT in children with ADHD (age 8-12 years). Children receiving the information "this might be a placebo-training" showed inferior neuroregulation (n = 10) compared to children receiving a standard instruction (n = 12). Results of our pilot study are discussed in view of factors necessary for a valid training (ensuring maximal self-efficacy in the participants) and the fidelity of placebo-controlled trials in NFT-research.
