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

Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exhibit various degrees of motor and cognitive impairments in fine and gross motor skills. These impairments impact social functioning, while also hindering academic achievement, self-esteem, and participation. Specifically, motor impairments are not fully addressed by current therapies. For example, approximately 50% of children with ADHD exhibit significant motor impairments, as per clinical measures, while the other 50% experience more impairments in motor planning, execution and control than do typically developed (TD) children. Such findings indicate that ADHD-specific mechanisms may be underpinning motor impairments. In this paper, we outline ADHD impairments in motor planning, execution, and control, and the potential role of two such mechanisms: internal motor representation and timing perception. Next, we suggest mental imagery as an approach for treating ADHD motor impairments, potentially through addressing internal motor representation and timing perception.
