Filter by:Attention-deficit with or without hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a real health public concern. No easy-use diagnosis tool are available. Metabolomic approaches has brought very usefull data in others neurological diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or autism spectrum disorder, as we had shown in previous studies. Targeting on neurotransmitter pathways involving in ADHD, metabolomic screening could help to enhance our diagnosis power to better help numerus of children. We propose to study the phenylalanine and the tyrosine pathways with a multimodal metabolomic approach, in easy-available biological fluid (blood and urine), in child or adolescent suspected of ADHD. Our objectives are: 1- to determine a specific metabolomic signature of ADHD 2- to compare the diagnostic value of this metabolomic signature with the reference methodology for ADHD diagnosis, as now practiced in our reference center for learning troubles.
In this study, the investigators will investigate the effects of polyphenolic extract from pine bark on the inattention and hyperactivity in patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) based on antioxidative status.
Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that affects 3-5% of young people under 18-years-old. Young people with ADHD have difficulties with attention, impulsivity and hyperactivity that make it harder for them to learn, form relationships and prepare for adulthood. Clinical guidelines state that young people taking medication for ADHD should be closely monitored and have their medication reviewed regularly to ensure they receive the correct dose to improve their symptoms. However, many young people aren't monitored as closely as guidelines recommend. This can lead to lack of improvement or worsening of symptoms meaning that children may not experience the benefits of medication as quickly as they should. At the moment, assessing whether or not medication is working relies on the opinions of teachers and parents, collected through questionnaires. The difficulties of this are: differences of opinion between people, lack of information provided by them, and not returning the questionnaires. A test performed on a computer (QbTest) provides doctors with a report of the young person's symptoms and can therefore show whether medication is working. This may help doctors reach accurate decisions about medication dose more quickly, reducing the need for questionnaires. The study team met with families and young people with ADHD and medical experts and developed a procedure for using QbTest to measure medication effects. The study team will measure how well this procedure works in the real world by asking a group of young people to complete the test when they first start taking medication and at their follow-up appointments. The study team will ask doctors and families/young people for their opinions on the procedure. The study team shall share our findings with other researchers and with the public by attending local support groups and providing summaries of the study results. The findings will be used to prepare for a future study.
The primary objective of this study was to examine the effects of the Cogmed training program on working memory among youths 7 to 13 years old, while controlling presence and presentation of ADHD-related comorbidity. A secondary objective was to examine the generalization of effects to ADHD symptoms, non-verbal reasoning, attentional and executive functions, motor impulsivity, reading comprehension, and mathematical reasoning. Participants were under pharmacological treatment for ADHD combined type and a comorbidity. They were randomized into an experimental group that received the Cogmed program and an active control group that received a low-intensity comparison version of the training. They were evaluated at three time points: six weeks prior to intervention onset (T1), immediately prior to onset(T2), and one week following intervention completion (T3).
The study is a multicenter, dose-optimized, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel efficacy laboratory classroom study with KP415 in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
