Everyday executive functions in children with neurofibromatosis type 1: Data from nine institutions.

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
objectiveExecutive function (EF) difficulties are prevalent in neurogenetic syndromes such as Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), the most common autosomal dominant condition associated with nervous system tumors. However, age-related differences in EF problems in children with NF1 remain poorly understood. This study aimed to examine how EF problems in daily life vary across ages throughout childhood and adolescence and how these age patterns vary across demographic and NF1 disease-related characteristics.
methodThis study integrated data of 1,294 observations from 1,025 children with NF1 (
resultsChildren with NF1 demonstrated elevated EF problems compared to the normative mean from early childhood through late adolescence, with deviations generally largest from midchildhood through midadolescence. At ages showing the greatest deviations from the normative mean, medium to large EF gaps were observed across five core domains (Cohen's
conclusionsLeveraging the largest EF data set of children with NF1 to date, this study precisely estimated EF problems across developmental periods and highlighted the heterogeneity in EF age patterns. These age-specific estimates are crucial for establishing EF developmental norms that guide clinical practice and patient management strategies. The findings can inform the design of individualized intervention and prevention strategies tailored to various developmental periods and diverse demographic and disease-related characteristics for children with NF1.
