ADHD Symptom Exacerbation Across the Menstrual Cycle: Effects on Medication Use, Sleep Quality, and Stress

This prospective diary study of 125 naturally cycling adult females with ADHD found that ADHD symptoms (inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity) and functional impairment significantly increased during the late luteal phase compared to the follicular phase, with participants using nearly twice as much medication during this period. Sleep quality was reduced and perceived stress was elevated in the late luteal phase, both predicting increased next-day symptoms.

Schema Mechanisms Underlying Emotion Dysregulation and Impulsivity in Comorbid ADHD and Borderline Personality Disorder

A cross-sectional study of 440 participants (ADHD-BPD comorbid, ADHD-only, BPD-only, and healthy controls) examined how early maladaptive schemas and schema modes relate to emotion dysregulation and impulsivity using validated clinical interviews and psychometric scales. Results showed the ADHD-BPD group had significantly elevated emotion dysregulation and impulsivity, with specific schema modes ('Angry Child', 'Enraged Child') and schemas ('Emotional Inhibition', 'Defectiveness/Shame') explaining 85% of emotion dysregulation variance.

Effects of Chronic and Acute Cannabis Use on Cognition and ADHD Symptoms: A Naturalistic Study

This empirical study examined 104 adults across four groups to assess how cannabis use affects cognitive performance and ADHD symptoms. While chronic cannabis users with ADHD reported subjective symptom improvements, they and non-ADHD users showed objective cognitive deficits; acute intoxication reduced impulsivity and anxiety but impaired overall cognitive function.

Viloxazine Extended-Release: A Clinical Review for Adult ADHD Treatment

Viloxazine ER (Qelbree), a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, is FDA-approved for ADHD in adults and showed significant symptom reduction and improved executive function in a 6-week randomized controlled trial. The medication demonstrated sustained benefits over 24 months with good tolerability, with insomnia and headache as the most common side effects and no significant cardiovascular or hepatic safety concerns.

Distinct and Common fMRI-Complexity Patterns in Children With ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

This study analyzed resting-state brain imaging data from 9-10 year old children in the ABCD Study to identify unique versus shared patterns of brain complexity in children with ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, OCD, and comorbid conditions. Using sample entropy analysis, researchers compared functional brain activity patterns across executive function networks between children with single diagnoses, multiple diagnoses, and healthy controls.

Stimulant treatment for ADHD and risk of juvenile criminal offending: Population-based cohort study

This Australian population cohort study of over 75,000 individuals with ADHD found that untreated ADHD was associated with increased risk of first criminal offence, which was substantially reduced by stimulant medication in young males. Stimulant treatment showed less protective effect for repeat offences, and some unexpected increased risk in treated females aged 10-17 years, suggesting complex relationships between treatment, sex, and reoffending outcomes.

Differentiating Pediatric Bipolar Disorder and ADHD Using Actigraphy and Self-Reported Mood Data with Machine Learning Prediction

This study examined 209 inpatients to distinguish bipolar disorder from ADHD by analyzing objective activity patterns (actigraphy) alongside self-reported mood and energy ratings. Machine learning models using actigraphy, sleep, and demographic data successfully predicted severe mood episodes on the same day and the following day, with bipolar disorder showing tighter coupling between activity extremes and mood disturbance.

ADHD Symptoms and Risky Sexual Behaviours in University Students: The i-Share Study

This cross-sectional study of 13,085 French university students examined associations between ADHD symptoms and risky sexual behaviours using validated self-report measures and adjusted logistic regression analysis. Students with elevated ADHD symptoms showed significantly higher rates of early sexual initiation, inconsistent condom use, STI diagnoses, and multiple partners, with female students also showing reduced contraceptive use.

Exercise-Based Interventions for ADHD: A Review of Modalities, Mechanisms, and Practical Applications

This review examines how different types of physical activity—including aerobic exercise, closed-skill activities (swimming, yoga), open-skill sports, and high-intensity interval training—affect ADHD symptoms in children and adolescents. Evidence suggests structured exercise may improve attention, reduce hyperactivity and impulsivity, and enhance executive function through mechanisms involving brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and catecholamine modulation, though optimal parameters remain to be established.

Circadian rhythm patterns and screen time in relation to sleep quality in adults with ADHD

This comparative study of 100 adults with ADHD and 100 healthy controls found that ADHD adults reported significantly higher screen time, more disrupted circadian rhythms, and poorer sleep quality. Biological rhythm disruption was identified as the strongest predictor of poor sleep quality across both groups, exceeding the predictive power of ADHD symptom severity or screen time alone.

Autistic traits in children with comorbid Specific Learning Disorder and ADHD: cognitive and behavioral predictors

This study of 150 children aged 8-12 years found that those with both Specific Learning Disorder and ADHD showed significantly elevated autistic traits compared to ADHD-only groups, with deficits in motivation, executive function, and motor skills being key predictors. Findings suggest that autistic trait expression in neurodevelopmental comorbidity is associated with underlying motivational, executive, and sensorimotor impairments rather than existing as an independent condition.

Interoceptive abilities in adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

This study compared interoceptive abilities (perception of internal bodily signals) in 57 adults without ADHD and 30 with ADHD diagnoses using behavioral measures like the heartbeat counting task and self-report questionnaires. Adults with ADHD showed significantly lower interoceptive accuracy, confidence, and insight compared to controls, even after accounting for confounding factors like depression and autistic traits.

The Common Structure of Dimensional Personality Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

This preregistered study of 2,567 adults examined shared latent structures between ADHD symptoms and personality dysfunction using dimensional models and structural equation modeling. Results showed ADHD components correlate strongly with impaired personality functioning and moderately with pathological traits, especially disinhibition, which remained substantially associated with ADHD after accounting for general personality pathology.
