Filter by:Evaluating neurobiological disorder associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and the contribution of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the adaptation of inhibitory control.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an individualized text messaging intervention for the parents of children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is effective in improving medication adherence and disease management.
A study in ADHD and neuro-typical children to assess EVO game play over 29 days.
Lack of appetite and weight loss are a common side effect of ADHD therapy with amphetamines such as methylphenidate. Lack of sufficient food intake has been shown to have negative effects on weight and height as well as learning and memory. There is no current treatment to prevent this loss of appetite except discontinuation or reduction of the methylphenidate. Discontinuation or reduction of the drug can cause the return of ADHD symptoms. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of two doses of a drug, cyproheptadine, vs placebo to find out if cyproheptadine prevents the appetite suppression associated with methylphenidate.
The purpose of this long term post-marketing study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of osmotic release oral system methylphenidate hydrochloride (OROS-MPH) in participants with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
The aims of the current study are to examine gene-environment interactions associated with norepinephrine (NE) system genes (ADRA2A, SLC6A2) in ADHD, and to evaluate whether genetic changes in norepinephrine pathway are associated with differences in functional connectivity of white matter fiber tracts, as measured by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Furthermore, this study aims to examine neurobiological markers, such as intermediate neuroimaging phenotypes or neuropsychological endophenotypes associated with the pathophysiology of ADHD. Through evaluating drug responses and side effects with the associated measures of clinical, neuropsychological and neuroimaging characteristics, investigators would like to investigate predictors of treatment response associated with NE system genes in ADHD.
The main purpose of this study is to determine the rate and extent of absorption of one or more modified release formulations of amphetamine (HLD100) in both adolescents and children with ADHD.
The purpose of this study is to study the efficacy and security of noninvasive brain stimulation as a new approach for patients with Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) plus other psychiatric conditions like ADHD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder, etc.
The purpose of this study is to determine if tocotrienol supplementation given to school going children with ADHD will result in reduction of their ADHD symptoms.
This pilot study seeks to evaluate initial evidence for the effect of L-methylfolate supplementation to OROS-Methylphenidate pharmacotherapy on ADHD symptoms and associated features in adults with ADHD, as well as tolerability of this supplementation. The investigators will conduct a 12-week double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial with L-methylfolate supplementing open-label OROS-Methylphenidate (OROS-MPH). The investigators propose to examine 40 adult (ages 18-55) subjects satisfying the DSM-IV diagnostic criteria for ADHD.
