This study evaluates the feasibility and preliminary impacts of a new parenting program consisting of a series of educational videos, automatically delivered via a popular texting platform. The program content for the feasibility study is focused on teaching parents strategies to better manage one of the commonly reported challenges that children face, a transition to a non-preferred activity. Parents with young children experiencing behavior difficulties with daily transition routines are invited to participate in the study.
Advancement in teaching methods, together with the frenetic change in the lifestyles of the school population, provides a unique opportunity to advance scientific knowledge. The current project, called "The Break4Brain Project", aims to examine the acute (transient) effects of physical activity on brain function, cognition, and academic performance in children with and without Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Specifically, a total of 60 children between 10 and 12 years old will be included with (n=30) and without (n=30) ADHD. The study will use an intra-subject design of isolated conditions with four measurement moments where the children will perform three different experimental conditions lasting 10 minutes, which will be randomized in a counterbalanced manner. These experimental conditions will be based on physical activity engaging cognitively, physical activity without engaging cognitively, and cognitively engaging control condition. This project could have a significant impact in the educational field, since, if brain function, cognition, and academic performance prove to be favorably stimulated, acutely, by physical activity through active breaks, these could be prescribed as an effective teaching strategy for children with and without ADHD in the school setting.
The primary objective of this study is to explore and evaluate the use and utility of a guided Internet-delivered psychological treatment for adults with ADHD with a combined focus on: i) Evaluating the impact of potential predictors to treatment adherence, treatment response, treatment use and utilty. ii) Evaluating the feasibility, clinical benefits and implementation process of the treatment in routine outpatient care. iii) Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the treatment program.
This study will investigate the effects of an online mindfulness-based intervention with a randomized controlled trial.
This study evaluates the feasibility and preliminary impacts of a new parent support program consisting of a series of educational videos, delivered via a popular texting platform. For this pilot project, the program content is focused on teaching parents strategies to better manage one of the commonly reported challenges children face, a transition to a non-preferred activity. Parents with children demonstrating inattentive, hyperactive and impulsive behavior and experiencing difficulties with daily transition routines are invited to participate in the study.
This RCT-study proposes the evaluation of an intensive educational intervention tailored for adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in community mental health centers (CMHCs). Given the prevalent challenges of prolonged waiting lists and low patient engagement in CMHCs, the research seeks to assess the efficacy of this intervention in enhancing patient engagement, self-efficacy, satisfaction with the information and overall health outcomes. The intervention, developed collaboratively with user representatives, combines a brief group-based educational sessions with standard clinical care. The primary hypotheses posit that this approach will lead to increased patient satisfaction with the treatment, patient self-efficacy, and activation compared to conventional treatment. Additionally, it aims to improve patients' satisfaction with information received. The study will employ a ITT analysis to assess the intervention's effects against usual treatment practices in outpatient settings. The anticipated outcome is a significant improvement in level of patient satisfaction, level of self-efficacy and level of satisfaction with the received information for patients with ADHD, potentially informing clinical practices and optimizing care for adults with ADHD.
The overall project aim is to study children's neurodevelopmental outcomes (including diagnoses of autism, ADHD, and intellectual disability) following exposure to maternal anemia during pregnancy or anemia during the first year of life using national and regional Swedish health-data registers, and to assess children's neurodevelopmental outcomes over the range of maternal hemoglobin levels during pregnancy.
A randomized, sham-controlled, double-blind clinical trial to examine the safety and effectiveness of tRNS on unmedicated pediatric patients (7-12 years) with ADHD. Subjects will undergo either tRNS or sham treatment for 10 days during a two-week period in a home-simulated environment. Each treatment session is 20 minutes, during which their attention will be maintained using a software game.
The goal of this exploratory study following a cross-sectional online survey in women with ADHD is to 1. describe overall experiences regarding ADHD symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, sources of support, and any perceived barriers on those domains; 2. determine which life domains are most affected by ADHD symptoms; 3. calculate the prevalence of reported health conditions within the following domains: circulatory system, endocrine or metabolic system, gastrointestinal system, genitourinary system, musculoskeletal system, nervous system, respiratory system, skin, reproductive system, cancer, psychiatric conditions, COVID-19, sensory sensitivity, menstrual cycle, and sleep; 4. identify topics that women with ADHD would like to see studied in future research.
