Impact of physical activity and psychological skills training with parental participation on cognitive, emotional, and behavioral outcomes in children with ADHD and their parents: A study protocol.

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
backgroundAttention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by difficulties in attention, hyperactivity, and impulse control. Previous studies have suggested that engaging in moderate to vigorous physical activity (PA) and undergoing psychological therapy can help improve ADHD symptoms when combined with pharmacological treatments. This study aims to investigate the effects of parent participation in physical activities and psychological skills training (PST) on the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral outcomes of children with ADHD, as well as the emotional well-being of their parents.
methodsParticipants for the study will be recruited from a tertiary medical institution. The focus will be on children aged 6-12 years who have been diagnosed with ADHD and are currently receiving treatment at the hospital. Assessments will be conducted separately for the children and their parents. We will evaluate the children's cognitive, emotional, and behavioral aspects, while for the parents, we will assess only emotional and behavioral aspects. The study will consist of three Intervention Groups (IG 1 and IG 2) and one control group. IG 1 will receive a combined intervention of PA and PST, IG 2 will participate in PA alone, and the control group will not receive any intervention. DISCUSSION: This study's findings underscore the benefits of greater active participation when children participate in activities with their parents. It will also demonstrate the possible advantages of integrating PA with PST. The research will also explore how these interventions may influence parents, providing insights into whether their engagement enhances their psychological well-being.
