Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Brain Development in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

The primary purpose of this study is to investigate brain whether ADHD represents a disruption or a delay of brain development. Children and adolescents both with and without ADHD are asked to participate in several MRI sessions, two years apart. This will allow us to chart brain development over time, both in typical development and ADHD, and therefore to address whether ADHD represents a disruption or a delay of typical brain development.

Electroencephalogram and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Study

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity DisorderHealthy Controls

The purpose of this research is to assess and determine brain oscillations or "brain signatures" of adult participants with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) relative to adult participants without ADHD using the technique electroencephalogram (EEG). Electroencephalogram is entirely non-invasive way of tracking brain activity.The main goal of this study is to establish biological factors for determining the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

ADHD: Gaps Between Patients With Alcohol-dependence and Impact on Relapse

AlcoholismAttention Deficit Disorder With Hyperactivity

Some recent studies have found that adult attention deficit - hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) was frequent among patients with alcohol-dependence. However, no investigation has ever addressed whether ADHD may impact the drinking outcome. Moreover, most of the different aforementioned studies assessed ADHD using the ADHD self-report scale (ASRS). The ASRS is a screening questionnaire that is of limited diagnostic value, and the overrepresentation of high-score ASRS among patients with alcohol-dependence could be in part due to differential diagnoses such as antisocial or borderline personality disorders, executive function impairments, or isolated impulsiveness. The study aims to evaluate "ADHD: Gaps between patients with Alcohol Dependence and Impact on early Relapse" (AGADIR). In AGADIR, subjects with alcohol-dependence are recruited at the end of a residential detoxification program. They are assessed for ADHD using the ASRS, but also with a standardized diagnostic tool, i.e., the Diagnostic Interview for ADHD in adults (DIVA 2.0). Potential differential diagnoses are screened during the baseline visit. The patients are followed-up during the 12 first post-detox weeks, through a standardized psychosocial treatment. ASRS is re-performed at the end of the follow-up.

Children With ADHD and Emotional Dysregulation

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity DisorderDisruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder

Studies have shown that children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and emotional dysregulation are characterized by high severity of ADHD, comorbid behavior disorders and increased risk of chronic difficulties. New studies have shown promising results by focusing on improving emotional regulation. We lack knowledge about differences in symptom patterns, stability of symptoms over time, comorbid disorders, neurocognitive functions, knowledge and regulation of emotions, psychosocial risk factors and reactions to stress. Children 6 to 12 years admitted to specialist and diagnosed with ADHD will be recruited. ADHD children with and without emotional dysregulation defined as fullfilling the criteria for the diagnosis Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD) with regard to differences in symptom patterns, stability of symptoms over time, comorbid disorders, neurocognitive functions, knowledge and regulation of emotions, psychosocial risk factors and reactions to stress..

TLR Polymorphism, ASO and Beta-hemolytic Group A Streptococcus Infections in ADHD: an Observational...

Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder

The aim of this observational cross-sectional study is to evaluate the streptococcal infection (clinical history, ASLO title and anti-DNAse title B) and autoimmunity (ABGA antibodies) in a sample of 100 adult patients diagnosed with ADHD (ie in patients in whom the disorder is permanent). Another objective will be to evaluate the frequency and types of genetic alterations of innate immunity (TLR polymorphisms, MyD88, IRAK-4) that can determine an infantile susceptibility to gram positive infections (ie S. pyogenes, S. pneumoniae, S. aureus) and the possible relationship between these elements, also in relation to comorbidity with other ABGA-related pathologies, to identify a possible pathogenetic immune mechanism of ADHD. Prevalence data will be obtained on an outpatient ADHD population for previous (history) and recent streptococcal infection (ASLO and Anti-DNAsiB), for the detection of ABGA and for the co-presence of other ABGA-related pathologies. By comparing the subgroups obtained by dividing the results on the basis of the positive infectious history, anti-streptococcus, autoantibody and comorbidity titers, it will be possible to assess whether the elevation of the ABGA titer is only linked to the previous/current infection ("infectious" group) or if there is a subpopulation of ADHD patients presenting pathological elevation of ABGA titers in the absence of infectious pictures ("immune" group). Furthermore, it is expected that the comparison of the descriptive polymorphisms TLR, MyD88 and IRAK-4 between the "infectious" and "immune" group may show a predisposition in subjects of the "immune" group.

The purpose of this research is to learn more about how children with mental health problems, including bipolar disorder (BD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), differ from children without these problems. The investigators want to understand how these 4 groups of children differ in brain activity, function, and structure.
