Complementary therapies for the management of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children: a scoping review.
Article in Revista latino-americana de enfermagem, 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
to map the scientific literature regarding complementary therapies used by health professionals for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. this scoping review was based on the recommendations proposed by the Joanna Briggs Institute. Five data sources were searched. Inclusion criteria comprised articles published in English, Spanish, or Portuguese; children aged one to nine years diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, regardless of additional age ranges covered; and no restrictions on publication date, study design, or bibliographic type. Therapies were grouped into four categories: mind-body therapies, supplementation, herbal therapy, and dietary therapy. a total of 1,444 publications were identified, with 133 peer-reviewed articles selected for analysis. Sixty-five complementary therapies were identified, with neurofeedback (n=38) being the most frequently cited mind-body therapy. Other interventions included a prevalence of polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation (n=14), Ginkgo biloba use (n=6) in phytotherapy, and oligo-antigenic diet (n=5) in dietary therapy. complementary therapies show potential for alleviating symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in childhood. However, some therapies still lack scientific validation, highlighting the need for targeted experimental studies to ensure safe and effective use.
