ADHD and the Development of Depression: Commentary on the Prevalence, Proposed Mechanisms, and Promising Interventions.
Article in Current developmental disorders reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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) has been identified as a significant risk factor for the development of later depression. Furthermore, their comorbid presentation results in greater levels of impairment than either disorder in isolation. Research has pointed to several causal mechanisms by which ADHD co-occurs with depression including the persistence of ADHD symptoms, reward responsivity, and emotion dysregulation as well as parenting/family factors and maternal depression. Stemming from this mechanistic research, interventions have been developed in recent years that aim to prevent depression in youth with ADHD. The Behaviorally Enhancing Adolescents Mood (BEAM) Program and The Integrated Parenting Intervention for ADHD (IPI-A) have both demonstrated promising results. Directions for future research are discussed with an emphasis on neurobiological mechanisms and the dissemination/implementation of interventions to reduce risk for depression among youth with ADHD in community care settings.
