Resting state vagal tone in attention deficit (hyperactivity) disorder: A meta-analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To quantify evidence on resting-state vagal activity in patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) relative to controls using meta-analysis. METHODS: Three electronic databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, CINAHL Plus) were reviewed to identify studies. Studies reporting on any measure of short-term, vagally mediated heart rate variability during resting state in clinically diagnosed ADHD patients as well as non-ADHD healthy controls were eligible for inclusion. RESULTS: Eight studies reporting on 587 participants met inclusion criteria. Random-effect meta-analysis revealed no significant main effect comparing individuals with ADHD (n = 317) and healthy controls (n = 270) (Hedges' g = 0.06, 95% CI: 0.18-0.29, Z = 0.48, P = 0.63; k = 8). Sub-group analysis showed consistent results among studies in adults (k = 2) and children (k = 6) with ADHD. CONCLUSIONS: Unlike a variety of internalising psychiatric disorders, ADHD is not associated with altered short-term measures of resting-state vagal tone.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
