Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Teen Self-Report on Health Behaviors and Social-Emotional Wellbeing: United States, July 2021-December 2022.
Article in Journal of developmental and behavioral pediatrics : JDBP. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivePromoting health during adolescence can support long-term well-being, especially for teens diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), who face increased risks due to the disorder's impact on development and health behaviors. ADHD is often associated with difficulties in social interactions, a higher likelihood of bullying involvement, and co-occurring mental health conditions. These factors may also be influenced by health factors such as physical activity, sleep quality, and screen time usage. Nationally representative teen self-reports provide a novel perspective on ADHD-related health outcomes compared with relying on parent reports.
methodWe used nationally representative data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) and NHIS-Teen from July 2021 to December 2022, to examine teen-reported health and well-being factors, stratified by parent-reported ADHD diagnoses among teens aged 12 to 17 years. Weighted prevalence estimates and adjusted prevalence ratios (aPR) adjusting for teen age, sex, and family income, all with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), were calculated.
resultsJust over 10% of teens had ADHD and they reported higher prevalence of bullying victimization (aPR = 1.64, CI = 1.27-2.11), difficulties making friends (aPR = 1.83, CI = 1.15-2.90), difficulty getting out of bed (aPR = 1.29, CI = 1.02-1.64), irregular wake times (aPR = 2.17, CI = 1.45-3.25), and >4 hours daily screen time (aPR = 1.26, CI = 1.05-1.52) than teens without ADHD; teens with ADHD reported a lower prevalence of lacking peer support (aPR = 0.70, CI = 0.51-0.96).
conclusionTeens with ADHD face distinct challenges related to social-emotional well-being and health behaviors that support overall wellness. Findings may inform opportunities for health promotion among teens with ADHD.
