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

Nonmedical prescription stimulant use is prevalent among college students despite no evidence of meaningful neuropsychological improvement in students without attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The present study addresses methodological limitations of existing placebo-controlled stimulant administration research by including a within-subject design, baseline comparison, and self-report/subjective measures of neuropsychological functioning to better clarify evidence of cognitive enhancement among college students without ADHD.
