Hippocampal Volume in Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Speech and Language Delay.
Article in Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: Hippocampus is a complex brain structure located deep in the temporal lobes of the brain. The structure has been implicated in several disorders related to cognition. Reports are emerging of its involvement in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The current study was planned to assess the volume of the hippocampus in children with ADHD and speech and language delay with normal birth history using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Material and Methods: MRI brain of 12 children (age range = 3-6 years) and 22 controls with clinical diagnosis of ADHD as per Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-5 were obtained in oblique coronal sequence (T1 weighted). The entire hippocampus formation was outlined manually using Image-J software available freely from www.freesurfer.com. Results were expressed as volume cubic millimeters ± SD. Results: Volumes of the hippocampi of children with ADHD were 2450.2 ± 667 mm Conclusion: Current study reported a substantial shrinkage (23%) of the left and right hippocampus in children with ADHD compared to controls.
