In a recent study conducted published in npj Mental Health Research, researchers found significant associations between family income, asthma, and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms in children. The findings provide evidence for a causal pathway where lower family income not only directly leads to more severe ADHD symptoms but also has an indirect effect through asthma in early childhood. This research highlights the interconnected nature of socioeconomic status, physical health, and mental health in children. ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by pattern...

A new study published in the journal European Psychiatry has shed light on an unconventional approach to managing symptoms associated with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The findings suggest that small, repeated doses of substances like psilocybin and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) could potentially help reduce ADHD symptoms and enhance some aspects of emotion regulation. These findings could pave the way for new treatments that focus not only on the primary symptoms of ADHD but also on improving emotional and social functioning. ADHD is typically marked by inattention, hyp...

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is often linked with difficulties in social interactions. Recent research published in Scientific Reports has shed light on how decision-making deficits, particularly impulsivity and the inability to delay gratification, play a crucial role in the social challenges faced by children and adolescents with ADHD. The study reveals that these decision-making challenges are consistent over time and significantly predict social difficulties. Previous research has primarily focused on the overt symptoms of ADHD, such as inattention and hyperactivity, and...

A study published in the journal Cellhas established a connection between disturbances in gut flora during the early years of life and the development of neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Researchers at the University of Florida and Linköping University have identified biomarkers present at birth that are indicative of future diagnoses of these disorders, offering a new approach to early detection and intervention. Neurodevelopmental disorders like autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ADHD affect millions worldwide, influencing brain...

A meta-analysis exploring the relationship between attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and cannabis consumption found that 27% of individuals with ADHD develop cannabis use disorder at some point in their lives, with 19% suffering from it at the time of data collection. Compared to those without this disorder, individuals with ADHD face almost three times the risk of developing cannabis use disorder. This study was published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research. Cannabis, commonly referred to as marijuana, is a psychoactive plant utilized for medicinal, recreational, and spiritua...

New research has found that individuals with more pronounced symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) tend to achieve higher reward rates in an online foraging task. These participants spent less time at a single location and more frequently switched to other locations, showing a greater preference for exploring new areas. The study was published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B. Foraging for food, water, and mates constitutes a fundamental aspect of the lives of all mobile organisms. Researchers believe that foraging played a crucial role in the development of inte...

In a landmark study led by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), scientists have uncovered a connection between symptoms of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and unusual patterns of brain connectivity. Analyzing nearly 10,000 brain images from youths with and without ADHD, the researchers identified distinctive interactions between the brain’s frontal cortex and deep brain structures involved in processing information. This discovery, published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, provides new insights into the neurological underpinnings of ADHD and opens avenues for future ...
