Contrasting presentations of children with ADHD and subthreshold ADHD.
Article in Pediatric research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundWe aimed to explore the differences and relationships in body composition, social function, and comorbidities between children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and subthreshold ADHD.
methodsA case-control study was conducted to analyze the differences between children with ADHD and subthreshold ADHD. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the factors influencing social functional impairments and comorbidities.
resultsChildren with ADHD and subthreshold ADHD had a higher fat mass index than healthy children (p < 0.05). The scores of all six social functional domains were higher in the subthreshold ADHD and ADHD groups than in the control group (p < 0.05). The prevalence of comorbidity was higher in children with subthreshold ADHD and ADHD compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Inattention and comorbid anxiety/depression increased the risk of functional impairments in children with ADHD (full syndrome/subthreshold), whereas a higher fat-free mass index reduced the risk. The severity of hyperactivity was associated with a higher risk of comorbidity in children with ADHD (full syndrome/subthreshold).
conclusionChildren with subthreshold ADHD and ADHD had more fat mass and higher rates of social functional impairments and comorbidities than healthy children. There were clinical correlations between body composition, social functional impairments, and comorbidities in ADHD. IMPACT: 1. Children with subthreshold ADHD and ADHD had higher fat mass levels than normal children. 2. The social function impairments and comorbidities of children with subthreshold ADHD were similar to those with ADHD. 3. Inattentiveness and anxiety/depression increased the risk of functional impairments in children with ADHD (full syndrome/subthreshold), while a higher fat-free mass index and skeletal muscle-to-body fat ratio reduced the risk.
