Characteristic Similarities of Irritability Between Autism and Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder

This study compared irritability symptoms in 21 children with high-functioning autism, 21 with disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), and 14 healthy controls using standardized behavioral assessment scales. Results showed that autism and DMDD share similar irritability profiles but differ in aggression patterns, with implications for differential diagnosis and clinical management of mood dysregulation in autistic children.

Sleep Problems in Children with Autism and ADHD: A Comparative Study of Effects on Communication Skills

This comparative study examined sleep disturbances in 122 children (ages 7-12) across three groups: typically developing, ASD, and ADHD, finding that both clinical groups experienced significantly more sleep disorders than controls, with ADHD showing greater sleep breathing problems. Sleep difficulties partially mediated the relationship between symptom severity and communication skills in both ASD and ADHD groups, suggesting sleep assessment is important when evaluating communication in these conditions.

Protocol for Development and Testing of the schiZotypy Autism Questionnaire (ZAQ): A Differential Diagnostic Screening Tool for Autism and Schizotypal Disorder

This study describes the development of the ZAQ, a new screening questionnaire designed to discriminate autism spectrum disorder from schizotypal disorder while providing combined screening for both conditions. The research employs a two-phase approach comparing 200 autistic patients, 100 schizotypy patients, and 200 controls against clinical diagnoses from specialized psychiatric teams to assess diagnostic accuracy and validity.

The Association Between Autism Spectrum Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Symptoms in Medical Students

A cross-sectional study of 168 Iranian medical students examined the correlation between ASD and ADHD symptoms using validated self-report questionnaires, finding significant associations between the two conditions. The research revealed high prevalence of both ASD and ADHD symptoms among participants, with males showing significantly higher rates of ASD symptoms than females.

Psychiatric Screening Measures in Behavioral Variant Frontotemporal Dementia

This study evaluates how patients with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) perform on psychiatric screening questionnaires designed for primary disorders like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and autism. Results show high false-positive rates on ADHD (54%) and autism (89%) screening measures in bvFTD patients, highlighting the risk of misdiagnosis when specialized neurobehavioral assessment is not performed.

Stimulant medication and symptom interrelations in children, adolescents and adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder

This study used network analysis to compare ADHD symptom relationships between 348 stimulant-treated individuals, 70 untreated individuals with ADHD, and 444 non-ADHD controls, finding stronger symptom associations in the treated group. The authors note that prospective longitudinal studies are needed to determine whether these differences reflect treatment effects or pre-existing factors.

Thyroid Hormone Receptor Mutation Presenting as ADHD: A Case Report

A 21-year-old man diagnosed with ADHD and learning disabilities was found to have resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) caused by a novel heterozygous mutation in the thyroid hormone receptor beta gene. This case illustrates how a rare genetic endocrine disorder can present with ADHD-like symptoms, emphasizing the importance of thyroid assessment in ADHD evaluation.

Association of Screen Time with ADHD Symptoms and Brain Structure Development: A Longitudinal Mediation Analysis

This longitudinal study of over 10,000 children from the ABCD cohort examined associations between screen time, ADHD symptom development, and brain structure changes over 2 years. Higher baseline screen time was associated with increased ADHD symptoms and reduced cortical thickness in frontal and temporal regions, with total cortical volume partially mediating this relationship.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder diagnoses and prescriptions in UK primary care, 2000-2018: population-based cohort study

This population-based cohort study analyzes trends in ADHD diagnoses and medication prescriptions across UK primary care over 18 years, examining whether increases reflect true prevalence changes or potential overdiagnosis. The research provides evidence-based insights into ADHD epidemiology and prescription patterns relevant to mental health service planning.

Components of Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy for Mitigating Core Symptoms in Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis

A systematic review and network meta-analysis of 43 randomised controlled trials (3,817 participants) evaluated which specific components of cognitive-behavioural therapy are effective for ADHD core symptoms. Third-wave therapy, behaviour therapy, and standard CBT showed superior efficacy compared to placebo, with organisational strategies and third-wave components emerging as particularly effective individual elements.

Pestle Needle Acupuncture Combined with EEG Biofeedback and Methylphenidate for ADHD in Children

A study of 78 children with ADHD compared methylphenidate plus EEG biofeedback alone versus the same treatment plus pestle needle acupuncture therapy over 3 months. The combination group showed higher reported efficacy rates and improvements in attention tests, sleep quality, and stress hormone markers, though methodological limitations and lack of external validation limit confidence in findings.

Self-compassion manifestations and their relationships with ADHD symptoms and quality of life in adults

This cross-sectional study examined self-compassion levels in 32 adults with ADHD, finding that negative self-compassion subscales (particularly overidentification) were more pronounced than positive ones. Self-compassion significantly mediated the relationship between ADHD symptoms and quality of life, suggesting recovery-based interventions targeting overidentification and enhancing common humanity may improve outcomes for adults with ADHD.

Increasing Prevalence of ADHD in Patients With Borderline Personality Disorder

A longitudinal study comparing adults with borderline personality disorder diagnosed in 1992 versus 2020 found significantly higher ADHD prevalence in the recent cohort, particularly among females. The researchers attribute this increase to broadening of DSM diagnostic criteria over time rather than a true epidemiological shift in ADHD occurrence.

Impaired emotional multimodal integration in inhibition of return in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder

This study examined how children with ADHD process combined audiovisual emotional information compared to typically developing peers using a discrimination task. Children with ADHD showed impaired audiovisual emotional integration across conditions and abnormal inhibition of return effects, suggesting deficits in both bottom-up and top-down emotional processing pathways.

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms and bullying victimization from childhood to adolescence: A within-person cross-lagged approach

This longitudinal study of 872 Norwegian children followed biennially from ages 6-14 examined reciprocal relationships between ADHD symptoms and peer victimization using clinical interviews and teacher reports. Results showed bidirectional effects between inattentiveness symptoms specifically and victimization, suggesting inattentiveness increases bullying risk while victimization may worsen inattentive symptoms.

ADHD Symptoms and Intelligence in Children with Cerebral Palsy: A Case-Control Study

This case-control study of 66 children (6-18 years) found ADHD significantly more prevalent in cerebral palsy (CP) patients (36.4%) than controls (9.1%), often presenting with predominantly inattentive symptoms. Children with both CP and ADHD showed lower intelligence scores and more severe motor disability compared to those with CP alone.

Frequency of low ImPACT scores among adolescent and young adult student-athletes with ADHD and/or learning disorder

This study examined how frequently adolescent and young adult student-athletes with ADHD and/or learning disorders obtain low scores on ImPACT, a computerized concussion assessment tool. The research addresses a gap in normative data by analyzing baseline neuropsychological test performance in a large sample of athletes with neurodevelopmental diagnoses.
