Associations of impulsivity, hyperactivity, and inattention with nonsuicidal self-injury and suicidal behavior: longitudinal cohort study following children at risk for neurodevelopmental disorders into mid-adolescence.
Article in BMC psychiatry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 15 papers.
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 knowledge of how the separate Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) subdimensions (impulsivity, hyperactivity, and inattention) are associated with nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and suicidal behavior (SB) is limited. The objective of this study was to investigate the associations of childhood ADHD subdimensions with NSSI and SB in children at risk of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs; including ADHD).
methodsThe sample (N = 391) included twin pairs where at least one twin screened positive for at least one NDD or common comorbidity at age 9 or 12. Data on ADHD subdimensions was collected through a telephone interview with a caregiver/legal guardian at age 9 or 12, and data on NSSI and SB was collected through an in-person clinical assessment at age 15. The associations between the ADHD subdimensions and NSSI or SB were tested in three different models: (1) univariable, (2) together with the other ADHD subdimensions, and (3) in a confounder-adjusted model including other NDD symptoms in addition to ADHD subdimensions, for NSSI and SB separately.
resultsA total of 32 (8.2%) adolescents reported life-time engagement of NSSI, and 18 (4.6%) SB. Childhood impulsivity was associated with SB and childhood inattention with NSSI, in all models. Hyperactivity was not meaningfully associated with any of the outcomes.
conclusionImpulsivity and inattention, but not hyperactivity, may be of particular importance in understanding SB and NSSI. Brief screening for impulsivity and inattention in childhood could facilitate detection of children vulnerable to NSSI and SB and indicate valuable information for preventive and intervention strategies.
