Active clinical trials for "Hyperkinesis"

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.

2-week open-label safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study of methylphenidate HCl ERCT in 4-5 year old children with ADHD.

The purpose of this study is to see if an intervention training executive functions like attention, working memory, and self-regulation for preschoolers at risk for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is feasible, acceptable to families, and improves attention, behavior, and functioning.

The primary objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy of Atomoxetine (ATMX) in the treatments of adolescent and young adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with comorbid Substance Use Disorder (SUD). The secondary objective of the study is to determine the efficacy of ATMX in preventing SUD relapse. As previous pre-clinical work has demonstrated that ATMX has led to significant improvement in ADHD in children and lacks abuse liability, the investigators hypothesize that ATMX will be efficacious in treating ADHD in adolescents and young adults with SUD, and that ATMX will also be efficacious in preventing SUD relapse.

The purpose of the proposed study is to determine the effectiveness of methylphenidate HCl (Concerta) in college students with ADHD. This study will consist of 110 college students between the ages of 18 and 25 who are enrolled full-time in a local or junior college. The study consists of an 8-week double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of placebo versus methylphenidate HCl (Concerta®) followed by a 10-week extension of open label methylphenidate HCl (Concerta®).

Depression and obesity are very common among adolescents and young adults with attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, intervention programmes to prevent these comorbid disorders rarely exist. In a pilot randomized-controlled study we test two newly developed intervention programmes that do not involve medication: bright light therapy and physical exercise. Both interventions will be supported by a mobile Health application to monitor and feedback intervention success and booster patients' motivation.

This is a research study to learn if a computer-based intervention that provides direct attention and metacognitive strategy development can improve attention, memory, and executive control in adolescents with moderate-to-severe TBI who are experiencing attention difficulties post injury.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether SPD465 is safe and effective in the treatment of ADHD in young adult drivers after a duration of 16 hours.

The goal of the study is to use graph theory to examine how the organization of the functional brain network may be altered by the administration of methylphenidate. This effect is to be compared between methylphenidate intake and placebo intake, as well as between healthy adult males and adult males with a diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

A 6-week double-blind study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Quillichew extended release chewable tablets in 4-5 year old children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
