Psychometric properties of ADHD screening and diagnostic tools in patients with severe substance use disorders.

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
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the performance of several tools for diagnosing ADHD in an adult population suffering from SUD, within a multi-tool diagnostic procedure. Method: Eighty-two patients suffering from SUD and suspected of ADHD were referred to undergo the procedure. They were asked to complete two questionnaires: the Adult Self Report Scale (ASRS-6) and the Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS-25) and three interviews: the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI-S), the Dual Diagnosis Screening Interview (DDSI) and the Diagnostich Interview Voor ADHD (DIVA-5). Their performance was compared to a consensus statement provided by trained psychiatrists and psychologists informed by all the assessments. Results: All the tools showed good sensitivity (0.81-0.98), but only the DIVA-5 showed good specificity (0.88). Accordingly, the negative predictive value calculated for an assumed prevalence of ADHD of 23 % was high for all tools (0.88 - 0.99) whereas only the DIVA-5 showed a good positive predictive value (0.71). Conclusion: The ASRS, the WURS, the MINI and the DDSI are thus useful screening tools among SUD patients, but the DIVA-5 seems to provide the most accurate information to ascertain ADHD diagnosis in this population. Further investigations are needed to assess the impact of prior standardized comorbidity evaluations on the accuracy of DIVA-5.
