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

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a developmental disorder characterized by inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, often treated with amphetamine and methylphenidate agents. There is limited published data to provide established guidelines for stimulant use during pregnancy, and even less data on particular medications. This case study reports maternal-fetal outcomes with lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse) use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The patient who received this medication during her second pregnancy experienced significant improvement in her mental well-being compared to her first pregnancy, despite a similar pregnancy course and fetal outcomes, including preterm delivery, neonatal intensive care unit admission, cleft palate, and micrognathia in both pregnancies. In addition, this case demonstrates one instance of successful breastfeeding with maternal use of lisdexamfetamine with no observed side effects in the infant. This report highlights the importance of managing ADHD during pregnancy and the postpartum period and offers an example of breastfeeding without significant side effects or concerns.
