Daily Routines and Habits in Individuals with ADHD: A Scoping Review

This scoping review analyzed literature on routines and habits in ADHD across both children and adults, identifying four main affected domains: sleep hygiene, feeding, physical activity, and sedentary behaviors. The review found significant research gaps, including the absence of validated assessment tools specifically designed for ADHD routines/habits and limited intervention studies, with most research focusing on pediatric rather than adult populations.

Three-Year Outcomes of Motivational Interviewing-Enhanced Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Adolescent ADHD: A Randomized Community Trial

This randomized controlled trial evaluated long-term effects of STAND (cognitive-behavioral therapy combined with motivational interviewing) versus usual care for adolescents with ADHD across community clinics over 3 years. Licensed therapists delivering STAND showed superior outcomes in hyperactivity/impulsivity, parent-teen conflict, and organizational/time management skills compared to unlicensed providers, though intent-to-treat analyses showed no overall group differences.

Scientists discover ancient brain cells that help block distractions

Researchers identified neurons in an ancient brain region that function as a focus filter, enabling selective attention to relevant stimuli. Temporarily disabling these neurons in mice produced ADHD-like distractibility symptoms, which normalized upon reactivation, suggesting a biological mechanism underlying attention regulation.

Effect of Prior Depression Diagnosis on Bipolar Disorder Outcomes: A Retrospective Cohort Study

This retrospective cohort study analyzed 5,595 Japanese patients newly diagnosed with bipolar disorder to examine whether a prior depression diagnosis and its duration affected psychiatric and all-cause hospitalization rates and mortality. Patients with prior depression history showed slightly lower all-cause hospitalization risk (HR=0.87), with duration of preceding depression (≥1 year vs <1 year) not significantly altering psychiatric hospitalization outcomes.

Autism in Schizophrenia and Its Original Link to Self-Disorder: Returning a Borrowed Concept

This academic paper traces the historical origins of the term 'autism' coined by Eugen Bleuler in 1910 to describe schizophrenia, and how the concept was later borrowed to describe autism spectrum disorder, leading to diagnostic confusion. The authors argue that autistic features in schizophrenia differ fundamentally from autism spectrum disorder—rooted in self-disorder rather than developmental autism—and propose this distinction is crucial for accurate differential diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Association Between Bipolar Disorder and Parkinson's Disease: A Review of Dopaminergic Mechanisms and Clinical Implications

This literature review examines the association between bipolar disorder and Parkinson's disease, focusing on their shared dopaminergic dysfunction in nigrostriatal and mesolimbic pathways. Recent analyses and meta-analyses show increased risk of developing Parkinson's disease in bipolar disorder patients, though differentiating idiopathic from medication-induced parkinsonism requires careful evaluation including DAT scans.

Formal and Informal Care Costs Following Traumatic Brain Injury and Spinal Cord Injury from Motor Vehicle Accidents: A Cross-Sectional Australian Study

This study compared the weekly utilization and associated costs of formal and informal care in 81 people with traumatic brain injury and 30 with spinal cord injury from motor vehicle accidents in Australia. Spinal cord injury (tetraplegia/paraplegia) required significantly higher costs for both formal and informal care, while informal care costs exceeded formal care costs for both conditions, highlighting the critical yet underacknowledged role of family caregiving in supporting recovery.

Problematic Social Networking Site Use: Effects on Mental Health and Brain Function

Excessive social networking site use is associated with elevated rates of depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and sleep disturbances, with preliminary neuroimaging evidence suggesting reduced gray matter in regions related to reward processing and inhibitory control. Cognitive Behavior Therapy shows promise as a short-term intervention, though more research is needed to fully understand the neurobiological mechanisms and treatment efficacy.

Comorbid Psychiatric Symptoms as Mediators Between Childhood ADHD Symptoms and Functional Impairment in University Students

This study examined 110 university students with elevated ADHD symptoms to determine whether current psychiatric comorbidities (depression, anxiety) mediate the relationship between childhood ADHD symptoms and functional impairment across domains like family, social functioning, and self-concept. Results indicated that while childhood ADHD symptoms directly predicted family domain impairment, depressive and anxiety symptoms were stronger predictors of impairment in life skills, self-concept, and social functioning, with indirect pathways through comorbid symptoms confirmed.

Paraben and Phthalate Exposure in Adolescents With ADHD: A Case-Control Study

This case-control study compared urinary concentrations of parabens and phthalate metabolites between 39 adolescents with clinically diagnosed ADHD and 41 healthy controls, finding differences in several chemical metabolites and an association between dimethyl phthalate and ADHD status. The study used validated laboratory methods and adjusted for socioeconomic and anthropometric factors, though the authors note that findings for compounds with low detection frequency should be interpreted cautiously.

Parent Profiles as Predictors of Emotion Dysregulation in Adolescents: ADHD vs. Non-ADHD Comparison

This study identified three distinct parenting profiles among 266 adolescents (51% with ADHD diagnosis) and examined their association with emotion dysregulation. Findings showed parents of adolescents with ADHD were more likely to exhibit high internalizing symptoms, emotion dysregulation, and moderate authoritative parenting compared to parents of non-ADHD peers.

Psychiatric Comorbidities in Functional Neurological Disorders and Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures: Systematic Review and Policy Recommendations

This systematic review examines psychiatric comorbidities associated with Functional Neurological Disorders (FND) and Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures (PNES), finding these are not autonomous conditions but develop alongside autism, borderline personality disorder, PTSD, and alexithymia. The authors propose a biopsychosocial model where early trauma, abuse, and neglect contribute to progressive neurological sensitivity, particularly in young female patients, and recommend improved assessment and integrated treatment policies.
