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

Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that often coexists with other neurodevelopmental disorders. The intricate comorbidity of ADHD with depression, Tourette syndrome (TS), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) presents substantial challenges in the screening, diagnosis, and management of these conditions. The aim of this study was to utilize big data-derived brain charts as an objective standard to assess brain development, comparing regional brain development differences between children with pure ADHD and those with comorbidities, and to explore the presumed correlation between specific structural deviations and the severity of ADHD symptoms. Methods: This is a large, population-based cross-sectional study with an observational design that prospectively enrolled 459 children with ADHD, using big data-derived brain charts as an objective standard for assessing brain development. Through normative brain chart modeling, we investigated regional brain development disparities between children with pure ADHD and those with comorbidities, exploring the associations between structural deviations and clinical symptoms. Results: Significant intergroup differences were observed in cortical thickness in the left cuneus gyrus ( Conclusions: Brain charts effectively unveil structural variations in ADHD and comorbid groups, aiding in the prediction of inattention severity. These insights advance our understanding of ADHD's neurobiology and pave the way for personalized diagnostics and therapies.
