ADHD and Sex Differences in School Bullying Victimization and Perpetration Based on Inverse Probability Treatment Weighting.
Article in Child psychiatry and human development, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exhibit heightened vulnerability to school bullying, with sex-specific patterns. This study analyzed data from the 2021 Korean National Survey on Mental Health of Youth, comprising 6,689 adolescents (ages 12-18; 50.9% male). After inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) adjustment, the effective sample comprised 3,1789 adolescents at risk of ADHD and 3,511 controls. Logistic regression analyses revealed pronounced sex differences. Female adolescents with ADHD symptoms showed significantly elevated odds of overall victimization, teasing/verbal provocation, and bullying perpetration, particularly verbal abuse. Conversely, male adolescents with ADHD symptoms demonstrated reduced odds of social exclusion and sexual harassment victimization, but an increased risk of verbal abuse perpetration. These findings underscore the critical role of sex in shaping the dynamics of ADHD-related bullying behaviors. They highlight the need for tailored, sex-sensitive interventions targeting emotional regulation and social skills deficits in adolescents with ADHD.
