Associations Between ADHD Symptoms and Diagnosis Across the Preschool Period.
Article in Journal of attention disorders, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThe purpose of the study was to examine which attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms at ages 3 to 5 are most strongly associated with an ADHD diagnosis in a large dataset of preschoolers across the United States.
methodsData were drawn from the Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program, a large national dataset in the United States. Children were included if their caregiver(s) completed at least one of five measures that assessed ADHD symptoms at age 3 (
resultsAll 10 symptoms assessed were significantly associated with an ADHD diagnosis.
conclusionResults suggest that some symptoms may be more useful than others when determining if a preschool-aged child is likely to be diagnosed with ADHD. Providers should consider the context and impairment associated with the symptoms. Future work should build upon limitations to assess all 18 ADHD symptoms in children with and without ADHD diagnoses across developmental periods.
