Active clinical trials for "Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity"

The results of this study are expected to provide important and new information regarding the treatment of academic impairment among college students with ADHD. The present study should provide a substantial addition to the existing knowledge base concerning interventions for college students with ADHD. In addition, because the intervention is being implemented during college, potential benefits include the prevention of the severe academic and psychosocial functioning difficulties associated with ADHD, including school dropout.

This study evaluates the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of centanafadine sustained-release tablets in adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Participants will either receive a twice-daily dose of centanafadine sustained-release tablets, or twice-daily placebo.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by problems with sustaining attention, organization, planning, procrastination, daydreaming, restlessness, impulsivity and hyperactivity.This is an outpatient study for subjects between the ages of 18-60, who have an Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) diagnosis meeting all inclusion criteria and not meeting any of the exclusion criteria.

To date the effects of chiropractic care on behavior and neurological function in children diagnosed with ADHD has not been investigated thoroughly and is limited mostly to case studies and retrospective case reviews. Our research group recently completed a pilot study that investigated the effects of a single session of chiropractic care on oculomotor function and reading ability in children with ADHD. The findings of this study suggested that chiropractic care may have a role in improving oculomotor control and reading ability in this population group. This proposed study is the next step in this program of research and is a pilot clinical trial that will investigate whether 4 weeks of chiropractic care influences behavior, neurological function, or quality of life in children with ADHD.

This study is designed to test if Baduanjin training can reduce the hyperactive-impulsive symptoms of children with Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) compared to routine excise. Investigators will also evaluate if the Baduanjin training will positively affect Chinese Traditional Medicine (TCM) symptoms compared to controls and if these impacts are related to the change of the executive function.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), is a highly genetic and complex neurological disorder, where disruptive behavior, emotional imbalance, and lack of attention can interrupt with normal development of adolescents, self-awareness, and self-regulation in a way that has an impact on the family unit. Effective family intervention programs, that empower resilience and strength, to cope with the stressful situation from ADHD, are therefore needed. Nevertheless, there is a lack of knowledge regarding what type of interventions are the most effective for these families. As well as, little is known about the benefits of family-level intervention for families of adolescents with ADHD at outpatient care and what amount of combination in an intervention is appropriate. Psychiatric advanced practical nurse (APN) practitioners are in a key role to offer such an intervention. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility of offering a family-level intervention, for parents of 13-17 years old adolescents with ADHD, at a Children and Adolescents' Psychiatric Outpatient Unit (BUGL). Also, to evaluate if the intervention, which consists of group educational sessions, family sessions, and access to evidence-based information's on ADHD, fitted the families. A nurse-led educational and support intervention will be offered for parents of adolescents with ADHD once a week over a 5-week time period. First, there will be offered three group support sessions, with information about the general impact of the ADHD disorder on the family's daily life. Second, two special therapeutic conversations and support interviews will be offered to each family, where each parent can discuss their daily situation specifically and its impact on the family as a whole. Third, caregivers will have access to about 140 pages of evidence-based material on a closed website (pan pale) regarding the ADHD disorder in adolescents and its impact on the family. The outcome of this process will help in determining the feasibility of subjecting the intervention to a more expensive and time-consuming randomized controlled trial (RCT) study.

The purpose of this study is to increase physical activity (PA) in children with ADHD using a novel, family-based intervention that promotes PA within the context of evidence-based behavioral management training (BMT) for caregivers, enhanced with mobile health (mHealth) behavior change strategies. Primary Objective: To evaluate the primary effects of a 9-week, family-based intervention (Lifestyle Enhancement for ADHD Program - LEAP) to promote PA in young children with ADHD Secondary: To evaluate secondary effects of the LEAP program on child ADHD symptoms and executive functioning

This randomised, placebo controlled trial explores the effects of supplementation with a probiotic drink (kefir) in children diagnosed with ADHD on behaviour, sleep, attention and the gut microbiome.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of the videogame-like digital therapy on attentional functioning and symptoms in Adults diagnosed with ADHD.

The investigators have designed an innovative proof-of-concept trial designed to provide data as to whether the speech difficulties in children with developmental dysphasia (DD) are improved with intranasal inhalations of bioactive factors (BF), produced by macrophages of M2 phenotype (M2-BFs). The rationale for this approach is the ability of central nervous system (CNS) to repair and the important role of macrophages in the regulation of this process. It was found that type 2 macrophages (M2) have anti-inflammatory and neurorestorative potential, in contrast to pro-inflammatory and neurotoxic effects of М1 cells. The influence of M2 is largely realized through the production of a wide spectrum of bioactive factors (cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, neuropeptides, microvesicles etc) that inhibit inflammation, protect neurons from apoptosis, stimulate neurogenesis, the growth and remyelination of axons, the formation of new synapses and activate angiogenesis. This study uses M2-BFs, as therapeutic tool, and intranasal administration focusing on nose to brain transport, as a mode of delivery. Expected clinical effects in treated children: improvement of speech understanding, word formation, grammatical structure of speech and formation of coherent speech.
