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

Introduction: Sensory processing differences are increasingly recognized in adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but their relationship with social participation remains understudied. This study examined sensory processing and social participation across three adult ADHD symptom groups and evaluated the association between sensory processing and social participation. Methods: This cross-sectional online survey included 209 adults aged 21-65 years, categorized into self-reported ADHD diagnosis ( Results: Significant group differences were observed across all four sensory processing quadrants and social participation score. Adults with low ADHD symptoms generally reported fewer sensory processing differences and social participation difficulties than the other two groups. The self-reported ADHD diagnosis and elevated ADHD symptom groups differed significantly only in the low registration quadrant. The sensory processing quadrants increased the model for an additional 26% of the variance in social participation beyond ADHD group and anxiety/depression status (Δ Conclusion: The findings suggest that the self-reported ADHD diagnosis group and the elevated ADHD symptoms group show similar patterns of sensory processing and social participation, and that sensory processing may be relevant to understanding social participation in this population.
