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

Cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS) is a set of behaviors including mental confusion, excessive daydreaming, and slowed behavior and thinking that are strongly related to but distinct from attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). A small body of research suggests that CDS may be associated with specific daily life executive functioning (EF) deficits in children, above and beyond ADHD symptoms. However, findings remain mixed, partially due to using smaller and ADHD-defined samples, mono-informant designs, and non-optimal measures of CDS. The current study examined multi-informant CDS and ADHD symptoms in relation to daily life EF in children (N = 263; ages 8-12 years; M±SD
