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

backgroundTo explore the brain regions with higher functional connectivity with the cerebellum at resting state and the brain functions related to cognitive function in children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

methodsThirty children with ADHD and 33 typically developing children (TDC) were examined using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans. Seed-based functional connectivity (FC) analysis was performed.

resultsFour brain areas with higher FC values were identified in ADHD children. These four areas were the left middle frontal gyrus, right middle frontal gyrus, right superior temporal gyrus and left parahippocampal gyrus (P < 0.05). The results of the CPT show that the number of omission errors was significantly higher in the children with ADHD than in the TD group (5.13±5.12 vs 2.18±2.36, P = 0.000). The commission number in the ADHD group was also significantly higher than that of the TD group (4.03±6.56 vs 2.00±2.85, P = 0.002). However, no statistically significant difference was observed in the correct reaction time between the two groups (641.54±146.79 ms vs 584.81±145.82 ms, P = 0.835).

conclusionThe dysfunction of cerebellar functional connectivity in specific brain regions may be one of the pathological and physiological causes of cognitive impairment of ADHD.
