Active clinical trials for "Hyperkinesis"

Subjects will answer the following questionnaire and tests: Symptom severity and improvement will be measured using ADHA Rating scale IV (ADHD RS) Demographic Questionnaire - composed by the researchers Family Eating Habits Questionnaire (FEAHQ-33) Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) Test MOXO The subjects will take the study product for six months. After six months the subject will fill once again all the questionnaires.

The aim of the current study is to examine whether the ability to avoid irrelevant auditory stimuli and focus hearing, enabled by the device developed by "Nuance Hearing", may help students with ADHD in classroom listening situations by significantly reducing background distractions.

This is a study evaluating the relationship between prenatal nutrition and neural development in infants born to mothers with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). We are hypothesizing that women randomized to a whole food, nutrient-dense diet during their 3rd trimester of pregnancy will have infants with more advanced neural development as compared to infants born to mothers receiving standard-of-care treatment.

The purpose of the study is to examine how well two types of treatment follow up work compared to one another: standard community follow up medication monitoring plus tailored case management follow up. A child's participation will involve 3 months of treatment consisting of medication and psychological, behavioural, and academic interventions tailored to their individual needs. Following this treatment, the child will be randomly assigned to receive two years of either community follow up or medication monitoring plus tailored case management follow up delivered by the study team. During both types of follow up, at 6 month intervals, the parent and child will be asked to complete interviews with our study personnel and comprehensive assessments pertaining to ADHD symptoms and various other areas of functioning. Parents will also be asked to obtain information from the child's teacher regarding the child's functioning at 6 month intervals during the school year.

Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) comprise about 5-10% of the elementary school-age population. One place where children with ADHD have great difficulty is in being accepted by peers and in making friends. It has unfortunately been very difficult for the field to find good treatments for peer relationship problems for this population. Even when children with ADHD do improve their behavior, it is common that peers do not seem to like the child with ADHD any better. This may happen because children often have negative reputations with their classmates that are hard to change. That is, once a class of children get the impression that one child is disliked or the social outcast, even if that child's ADHD symptoms get better, the peer group may not notice any of these improvements. It is hypothesized that the elementary school teacher may be able to help peers notice positive behavior changes in children with ADHD when they do occur. This clinical trial will design and pilot-test an intervention that would train teachers in classroom practices to reduce the peer rejection of students with ADHD. The pilot test will be conducted in a summer program created to be similar to a regular school classroom in structure. If the treatment seems to succeed in the summer program, then it will be tried in regular classrooms in a future study.

The study aims to implement and evaluate an RCT of behavioural sleep interventions for children aged 5-12 years with ADHD, and their primary caregivers, (women) in Saudi Arabia to address the following questions: To what extent can a behavioural intervention improve sleep difficulties and increase sleep duration in children with ADHD? To what extent do intervention-induced changes in sleep for children or primary caregivers (women) account for any changes in ADHD symptoms?

For children with ADHD aged 4-10 at the time of enrollment, starting from preschool, focusing on apathy and emotional control, using psycho-behavioral measurements, EEG experiments, and eye tracking technology to evaluate and implement targeted Sexual intervention and six-month follow-up. Establish a diagnosis and treatment decision analysis model and psychological treatment plan for ODD/CD.

The investigators intent to recruit 80 attention deficit hyperactivity disorder families. The attention deficit hyperactivity disorder families had received executive function training one year before.They will be randomized to intervention group and control group using a block randomization design. The intervention group will participate in intensive executive function training immediately,while the control group will receive executive training after 3 months.

ADHD children have executive function (EF) impairments,so we randomize the children to the training or a waitlist to improve EF ,adding contingent reinforcement to ascertain whether EF deficits are amenable to the training in children with ADHD.

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects about 5% of school-age children and 3.5% of adults worldwide. This condition is under-recognised in France and other European countries and, therefore, under-diagnosed. As part of the European Network for Adult ADHD, the investigators translated into French a structure interview called the Diagnostic Interview for Adult ADHD (DIVA). The investigators also translated rating scales such as the ASRS and the WURS. Validation studies are rare in France. The aim of this study is to include two groups of 50 adults whether they have or not ADHD with respect of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual - Revision 4(DSM-IV) criteria as implemented in the DIVA (i.e. actual at adulthood and past in childhood). Subjects have to fill out a booklet of questionnaires including the WHO's Adult ADHD Symptom Rating Scale (ASRS) (screening tool for actual diagnosis) and the Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS, a screening tool for ADHD in childhood with respect of the Utah criteria). The investigator will be able to compare the actual criteria for ADHD between the ASRS and the DIVA, and the past criteria for ADHD between the WURS and the DIVA. Finally, an estimate of the prevalence of ADHD in adults will be computed.
