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/impulsivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) are prevalent neurodevelopmental disorders in children, often co-occurring and leading to significant academic and behavioral challenges. Despite global studies, there is limited data on the prevalence of these disorders in rural Thailand. This research aimed to identify the prevalence of ADHD and ODD among primary school children in rural Chiang Mai, Thailand, from parent and teacher perspectives and to assess the relationships between ADHD and ODD symptoms. METHODS AND MATERIAL: This study, conducted in two primary schools in the rural area of Chiang Mai, Thailand, involved 198 students, 11 teachers, and 198 parents, and used multistage random sampling to ensure representativeness. A cross-sectional study was conducted. Teachers evaluated the children's behaviors using the SNAP-IV scale. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the demographic data, and Pearson's correlations were calculated to assess relationships between ADHD and ODD symptoms.
resultsParent assessments reported 3.03% of children at risk for inattention, 3.54% for hyperactivity/impulsivity, and 4.55% for ODD. On the contrary, teacher assessments indicated higher risks of inattention (3.54%), hyperactivity/impulsivity (13.13%), and ODD (14.65%). Strong correlations emerged between inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity (r = 0.780) and between hyperactivity/impulsivity and ODD (r = 0.645) in parent ratings, with similar patterns in teacher ratings, showing a correlation of r = 0.674 between hyperactivity/impulsivity and ODD.
conclusionsADHD and ODD are common among primary school children in rural Thailand, with significant symptom overlap. Differences in parent and teacher reports highlight the need for multi-informant assessments.
