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

Objective: Previous studies indicated that maternal thyroid dysfunction increase the offspring's risk for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, the relationship between thyroid function and symptoms in children with ADHD remains unclear. Methods: A total of 49 children with ADHD were enrolled. The Conners 3 scale was used to estimate the symptoms associated with ADHD. Correlation between thyroid hormones and the scores of the Conners 3 scale was evaluated by Pearson correlation analysis. Then, ADHD children were divided into two groups according to the hyperactivity index (HI) of the Conners 3 scale: ADHD children with hyperactivity behaviors (HB) (HI > 1.5) and ADHD children without HB (HI < 1.5). The demographic characteristics, thyroid hormones, and routine laboratory parameters between the two groups were collected. To distinguish HI-related factors, a univariate analysis and a binary logistic regression predictive model were used. The discriminative ability of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in predicting ADHD children with HB from ADHD children without HB was investigated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve method. Results: The levels of TSH were positively correlated to the scores of the Conners 3 scale (r = 0.338, Conclusion: These results suggested that the serum TSH levels may be related to the HB in children with ADHD.
