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

Head motion is a major confounding variable for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis, and is commonly seen in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This study investigated the trajectory of change in head motion in typically developing children and children with ADHD, and examined possible altered trajectories in head motion between children with remitted and persistent ADHD. 105 children with ADHD and 84 controls completed diffusion and resting-state functional MRI scans at up to three waves over ages 9-14 years. In-scanner head motion was calculated using framewise displacement, and longitudinal trajectories analyzed using generalized additive mixed modelling. Results revealed a significant age effect on framewise displacement where head motion decreased as age increased during both diffusion (p < .001) and resting-state functional MRI (p < .001). A significant effect of group was also observed; children with ADHD displayed greater framewise displacement than controls over the age range (diffusion MRI p = .036, functional MRI p = .004). Further analyses revealed continued elevation in head motion in children in remission from ADHD (diffusion MRI p = .020, functional MRI p = .011) compared to controls. Rates of change in head motion did not significantly differ between diagnostic groups. Findings indicate a critical link between in-scanner head motion and developmental age within children regardless of ADHD diagnosis, important to consider in studies of neurodevelopment. Findings also suggest change in head motion with age does not differ between individuals with remitted and persistent ADHD, adding further evidence that behavioral manifestations of ADHD may continue despite clinical remission.
