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
Studies have identified a higher prevalence of co-existing psychiatric and medical disorders in children with ADHD. There is a shortage of longitudinal studies providing an overview of potential medical disorders in children with ADHD. The objective of this study was to provide a broad overview of lifetime prevalence and relative risk of medical disorders in a nationwide Danish cohort of children with and without ADHD during the first 12 years of life. A population-based prospective follow-back cohort study used data from Danish national health registries to identify a cohort of all children born in Denmark between 1995 and 2002. The children were followed from birth until 12 years of age in two national registries. Children with ADHD had a significantly higher prevalence of recorded diagnoses across all included chapters of medical disorders in the ICD-10, except for neoplasms, where the association with ADHD was non-significant. The highest relative risk was observed for the chapter concerning diseases of the nervous system, with episodic and paroxysmal disorders being the most frequently registered underlying category. The findings indicate that children with ADHD have an increased risk of a broad range of medical disorders compared to the general population during the first 12 years of life, except for neoplasms.
