Filter by:The ultimate goal of this study is to find the association between specific polymorphism of candidate genes and medication response in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) patients. These results will lead the investigators' team: (1) to resolve controversies over inconsistent findings in previous pharmacogenetic studies; (2) to study the medication effect on the neuropsychological functions that are useful candidate endophenotypes for ADHD; (3) to delineate the nature and the effect of gene-gene interaction in the drug response of ADHD patients.
To understand whether a relationship exists between eating disorders and ADHD, we seek to clarify the prevalence of ADHD in individuals with eating disorders. To this end, we will estimate the prevalence of ADHD, and other neuropsychiatric disorders, in outpatients with history of an eating disorder diagnosis. Secondarily, we will identify patterns of cognitive deficits in outpatients with history of an eating disorder diagnosis. We will also examine whether ADHD in this population is associated with functional and familial correlates associated with ADHD.
The objective of this study was to establish that an optimal dose of Quillivant XR oral suspension would result in a significant reduction in signs and symptoms of ADHD compared to placebo treatment in pediatric patients ages 6-12 years with ADHD.
This study will determine the effectiveness of an intervention for preventing at-risk kindergarten and pre-kindergarten children from developing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (process by which JNJ-31001074 is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and eliminated by the body) after a single dose of JNJ-31001074. Up to three dose strengths will be tested in patients 12-17 years old with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

This study will determine whether two new psychostimulant medications are more effective, tolerable, and acceptable than two older medications for treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Neurofeedback is increasingly advocated for treatment of ADHD despite a thin evidence base. The numerous open and partially controlled studies suffer serious design flaws. In particular, there is no published double-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT), which would control for experimenter and participant biases. The primary aim of this R34 pilot study is to conduct a small-scale pilot with 39 8-12 year-olds with ADHD to prepare for such a larger RCT.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the psychometric validation of the Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale and the Weiss Symptom Record. It is hypothesized that the Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale has strong psychometric properties and good convergent validity with other measures of functioning and discriminant validity from symptoms and quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety/tolerability of 3 different dosages of JNJ-31001074 compared with placebo in adult patients with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
