Filter by:The purpose of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured aerobic exercise intervention for adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with and without medication and compare it to medication alone. Participants will be randomly assigned to medication only + education, aerobic exercise intervention only, and combined aerobic exercise and medication groups. Participants will be evaluated at baseline, following medication optimization (for medicated groups), following 8 weeks of intervention, after 3 months of follow-up, and after 6 months of follow-up. The investigators hypothesize that the combined group will have the best outcome at all evaluation points and that treatment gains will be maintained throughout the follow-up period if the assigned treatments are continued.
Paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity (PSH) is a frequent symptom after traumatic brain injury and concerns up to 30% of severely brain-injured patients. PSH is due to unbalanced autonomic nervous system activity, resulting in sympathetic surges causing hypertension, tachycardia, sweating and hypertonia. The affected patients suffer more pain, more cardiovascular distress, more infections and prolonged rehabilitation and mechanical ventilation; additionally it could lead to a worse outcome. Classical music was shown to reduce autonomic nervous system imbalance in healthy people and in many medical diseases. It could be a means to dampen sympathetic surges for brain-injured patients presenting with PSH, as well. Our study aims at demonstrating that early musical intervention, started with the weaning of sedation, can reduce both the prevalence and the severity of paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity in traumatic brain-injured patients.
The investigators administered a randomized controlled trial (RCT) through random assignment of children with ADHD into three different groups to compare the effects of cognitive-motor rehabilitation, immediate release methylphenidate, and an active control on the executive functioning, learning, and behavioral symptoms of children with ADHD.
The main objective of the study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of the personalized Neurofeedback Training device versus Methylphenidate in the treatment of children and adolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
This study evaluates the use of Rhodiola rosea in the attention of adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Half of participants will receive Rhodiola rosea 800mg, while the other half will receive 800mg of placebo.

Open label, flexible dose, long-term multicenter study of safety and efficacy of SPN-812 ER in pediatric ADHD patients
A study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dasotraline in children 6 years of age to 12 years of age with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in a simulated classroom setting.
The investigators will conduct a randomized placebo-controlled trial of a computerized intervention targeting working memory in 30 children with comorbid Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Tourette Syndrome (TS).
The primary purpose of this study is to identify whether, after adjustment for confounders via stratification on a propensity score and adjustment for calendar year, the combined endpoint consisting of #1 to #4 (1. switching back to Concerta, 2. changing the use of immediate release [IR] methylphenidate, 3. beginning a new attention deficit hyperactivity disorder [ADHD] medication, or 4. stopping both Concerta and the long acting [LA] methylphenidate {authorized generic [AG] methylphenidate or equivalent generic [EG] methylphenidate} that was begun on the index date), differs between participants who switch from branded Concerta to the EG formulations versus participants who switch from branded Concerta to the AG formulation.
