Digital addiction and its relationship with cognitive function among children - A cross sectional study.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Modern children exhibit a significantly greater reliance on technology compared to earlier generation. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the digital addiction and its effect on cognitive function among children. A Cross sectional study using convenience sampling technique was used to collect data from 419 children aged 9-17 years from pediatric ward and Out Patient Department (OPD) in a tertiary care hospital. The analysis included 419 participants and examined the relationship between digital addiction, measured by the Digital Addiction scale for children (DASC), and cognitive function measured by the PedsQL Cognitive function scale. The mean DASC score was 61.41 ± 18.51, and the mean PedsQL score was 388.49 ± 138.17. A statistically significant negative correlation was found between DASC and PedsQL scores (r = -0.57, p < 0.001), indicating Digital addiction has negative impact on cognitive function of children. This suggests that as digital addiction increases, cognitive function tends to decrease.
