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

The relation between Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and memory performance has attracted growing interest in recent years. However, one of the more complex memory abilities, object-location memory (OLM), remains scarcely studied within the context of ADHD. In this study, we examine incidental and intentional OLM performance in treated and untreated adults with ADHD and in controls. Fifty-eight adults with ADHD (26 medicated and 32 unmedicated) and 51 neurotypical individuals are assessed in a paper-and-pencil format for incidental and intentional OLM under a divided-attention condition. The results showed that all groups demonstrate higher performance in incidental OLM than in intentional OLM. Furthermore, medicated ADHD participants demonstrate reduced incidental OLM performance relative to unmedicated ADHD participants and controls. However, no group differences between unmedicated participants and controls are observed. This study reveals an overlooked aspect of visuospatial performance in ADHD under mental load and calls for further research on the impact of stimulants on incidental OLM.
