Primary School Children's Self-Reports of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder-Related Symptoms and Their Associations With Subjective and Objective Measures of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
Article in Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundThe diagnosis of Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is primarily dependent on parents' and teachers' reports, while children's own perspectives on their difficulties and strengths are often overlooked. GOAL: To further increase our insight into children's ability to reliably report about their ADHD-related symptoms, the current study examined the associations between children's self-reports, parents' and teachers' reports, and standardized continuous performance test (CPT) data. We also examined whether the addition of children's perceptions of ADHD-symptoms to parents' and teachers' reports would be reflected by objective and standardized data.
methodsThe study included 190 children with ADHD, aged 7-10 years, who were referred to a pediatric neurologic clinic. A retrospective analysis was conducted using records of a clinical database. Obtained data included children's self-reports of their attention level and ADHD-related symptoms, parent, and teacher forms of the Conners ADHD rating scales, Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Teacher's Report Form (TRF), and CPT scores.
resultsChildren's self-evaluations of their functioning were globally associated with their teachers' and parents' evaluations, but not uniquely. Children's self-reports of ADHD symptoms were not uniquely linked to a specific CPT impairment index, but to a general likelihood of having an impaired CPT. The CPT performance successfully distinguished between the group of children who defined themselves as inattentive and those who did not.
conclusionPrimary school children with ADHD are able to identify their limitations and needs difficulties and that their perspectives should inform clinical practice and research. The clinical and ethical imperative of taking children's perspectives into account during ADHD diagnosis and treatment is highlighted.
