Post-operative complications and ADHD.
Article in Frontiers in child and adolescent psychiatry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
ADHD is associated with a number of developmental, emotional, social, academic, and cognitive health risks that can affect the adolescents' quality of life. There have been various guidelines published regarding the management of children with ADHD, however, it has been reported that physicians may not adequately screen for ADHD prior to surgery. To our knowledge, there are no such studies studying post-operative complications and outcome rates in adolescents with ADHD. We conducted a retrospective case-control study through the TriNetX databases. We identified patients with ADHD (ICD-10: F90) undergoing a surgical procedure (CPT: 1003143), and a control group of non-ADHD patients undergoing a surgical procedure. From these two pairs of case-control cohorts we compared outcomes of post-procedural infections, post-procedural shock, and any post-procedural complications. We identified 791,481 matched pairs of subjects undergoing surgery where one of the pair had ADHD and the other did not. Among subjects undergoing a surgical procedure, those with ADHD had a significantly higher risk of post-procedural infection and any post-procedural complication, relative to subjects without ADHD. Furthermore, those with ADHD showed a heightened risk of post-procedural complications in all procedural subcategories. These novel findings suggest that ADHD is a notable factor in surgical care and should be given special consideration by both surgeons and psychiatrists.
