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

Objective: This meta-analysis evaluated the associations between noise exposure, air pollutants, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, aiming to inform future prevention strategies. Methods: Studies were systematically retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library, covering publications from inception to November 2025. Heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q test and the Results: Noise exposure was associated with a small increase in ADHD risk (odds ratio [ Conclusions: Noise and several air pollutants (PM Systematic Review Registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/view/CRD42024593274, identifier CRD42024593274; https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/view/CRD42025632899, identifier CRD42025632899.
