Attention-Deficit/Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) in adults is associated with global impairments and deficits in quality of life. The ADHD functional impairments during adulthood usually persist even after adequate medication treatment. The Skill Training Group of the Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is one of the group therapies that had been adapted for the specific treatment of ADHD patients. Our primary aim is to explore the feasibility of the approach in different culture and to evaluate the efficacy of the Skill Training Group as an add-on treatment for adults using ADHD medication. This is a Randomized Clinical Trial comparing the Skill Training Group added to stimulants to treatment as usual. 52 adults previously diagnosed with ADHD and treated with stimulants in our ADHD outpatient program will be enrolled. Only patients with residual symptoms will be included (ADHD-Self Report Scale - ASRS ≥ 20). The intervention comprises the standard 12 sessions therapy program. The groups will have between 8 and 12 patients each, and will be conducted by a trained DBT therapist with supervision from a senior DBT therapist. The primary outcome will be the ASRS scores. Secondary outcomes include scores in ADHD Quality of Life, Beck's Depression Inventory, Beck's Anxiety Inventory, and performance in a neuropsychological test (difference between pre and post-intervention) (Stop Signal Task). Adherence to the protocol will also be checked. The recruitment was initially scheduled for beginning in November.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of SHP465 at 6.25 milligram (mg) in children aged 4 to 12 years diagnosed with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHP465 at 6.25 mg in the treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children aged 6-12 years.
A trial to assess the safety and efficacy of OPC-64005 in the treatment of adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
The investigators anticipate to identify specific polyunsaturated fatty acids that show significant differences between ADHD and control groups. In addition, these findings may offer more biological understanding in explaining the relationship between polyunsaturated fatty acids and visual memory among children with ADHD. The results will significantly contribute to the knowledge of the pathophysiological mechanisms of ADHD, especially the polyunsaturated fatty acids related to the behavioral/visual memory deficits of ADHD.
This project aims to assess the evolution of symptoms in ADHD children from 8 to 17 years, with various types of attention training. Different groups A, B and C will be evaluated: the first with Neurofeedback training, the second with a similar training but not indexed on brain activity and the third without training. 30 patients will be randomly assigned to groups A and B according to a ratio 2:1. Others patients who meet the same criteria but for logistical reasons cannot comply with the training constraints will be assigned to group C. Children included in groups A and B will participate in training sessions (Neurofeedback and control training, respectively) as well as in four evaluation sessions. Children in group C will only participate in evaluation sessions (baseline control group). Patients of groups A and B will be followed over 6 months: 4 months of training and a follow-up evaluation 2 months after training. Patients of group C will be followed each 2 months for 6 months. This study uses electro-encephalography measures, serious video game, neuropsychological tests and questionnaires. It also uses actigraphy measures to evaluate sleep quality.
This study aimed to evaluate the longitudinal association between n-6:n-3 LCPUFAs ratio in cord blood and child ADHD symptoms at 4 and 7 years old. This study was based on the INMA project, a population-based birth cohort in Spain. Higher cord blood n-6:n-3 ratio was associated with higher subclinical ADHD symptoms during early and mid-childhood.
This is PART A of a 2-part, 6-week, double-blind, dose-optimization, parallel-group study in children and adolescents (ages 6-17 years) with ADHD with and without CNVs in specific genes implicated in glutamatergic signaling and neuronal activity. Parts A will include subjects determined to have a specific gene mutations implicated in glutamatergic signaling and neuronal connectivity.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational treatment is effective in improving the total score on the ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version in children 4-5 years old diagnosed with ADHD.
