Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a persistent neurodevelopmental disorder that affects 5% of children and adolescents and 2.5% of adults worldwide. Throughout an individual's lifetime, ADHD can increase the risk of other psychiatric disorders, educational and occupational failure, accidents, criminality, social disability and addictions. No single risk factor is necessary or sufficient to cause ADHD. In most cases ADHD arises from several genetic and environmental risk factors… Expand

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
TLDR
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is associated with an increased risk of negative long-term outcomes however, with support many patients thrive and have successful lives. Expand
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
TLDR
This chapter reviews the current diagnostic criteria, epidemiology, and history of ADHD, and the different phenotypes (predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive/impulsive, or combined) and diagnostic process. Expand
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Predominantly Inattentive Subtype/Presentation: Research Progress and Translational Studies
TLDR
The Research Domain Criteria has been proposed to provide a novel framework for understanding the nature of neuropsychiatric illnesses and ultimately improve their diagnosis and treatment. Expand
Shared genetic background between children and adults with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder
TLDR
It is confirmed that persistent ADHD in adults is a neurodevelopmental disorder and the existing hypothesis of a shared genetic architecture underlying ADHD and different traits to a lifespan perspective is extended. Expand
Shared genetic background between children and adults with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder
TLDR
It is confirmed that persistent ADHD in adults is a neurodevelopmental disorder and the existing hypothesis of a shared genetic architecture underlying ADHD and different traits to a lifespan perspective is extended. Expand
ADHD symptoms in the adult general population are associated with factors linked to ADHD in adult patients
TLDR
Factors associated with categorical ADHD are also correlated with ADHD symptoms in the adult population, and Childhood ADHD symptoms, neuroticism, and psychoticism were positively associated with current IA and HI symptoms, while extraversion had an opposite association with these symptom domains. Expand
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), antisociality and delinquent behavior over the lifespan
TLDR
Although the understanding of the role of ADHD in the development of criminal behavior has substantially improved during the last two decades, more research is needed to further elucidate the mechanisms generating unfavorable outcomes and to engender adequate treatment strategies for this population at risk. Expand
Common psychiatric and metabolic comorbidity of adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: A population-based cross-sectional study
TLDR
Adult ADHD remained associated with all comorbidities in older adults aged 50 to 64 when all conditions were assessed from age 50 onwards and Clinicians should remain vigilant for a wide range of psychiatric and metabolic problems in ADHD affected adults of all ages and both sexes. Expand
Management of anxiety disorders in children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder: a narrative review
TLDR
Adjunctive cognitive-behavior therapy for anxiety disorder symptoms is strongly recommended and is considered superior to medication alone, and in moderate and severe cases of comorbid Ads, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors can be added to the stimulants, with the required caution. Expand
Risks and Benefits of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Medication on Behavioral and Neuropsychiatric Outcomes: A Qualitative Review of Pharmacoepidemiology Studies Using Linked Prescription Databases
TLDR
A qualitative systematic review of studies that investigated the effects of ADHD medication on behavioral and neuropsychiatric outcomes using linked prescription databases from the last 10 years found no evidence of increased risks for suicidality and seizures and highlighted several knowledge gaps to be addressed.

ADHD: Prevalence, Diagnosis, and Issues of Comorbidity
TLDR
Acute and long-term use of long-acting stimulant formulations (methylphenidate and amphetamine compounds) have shown robust efficacy and tolerability consistent with the treatment response established in children with ADHD, and non-stimulant medications have demonstrated efficacy as well, and may be preferred in patients with tic and substance use disorders. Expand
Is adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder a valid diagnosis in the presence of high IQ?
TLDR
It is suggested that adults with ADHD and a high IQ display patterns of functional impairments, familiality and psychiatric co-morbidities that parallel those found in the average-IQ adult ADHD population. Expand
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in adults: an overview
TLDR
Assessment of clinical, family, psychopharmacologic, neurobiological, and outcome studies found multiple reports describing adults with clinical features highly reminiscent of the childhood ADHD, suggesting converging lines of evidence support the validity of ADHD in adults. Expand
Diagnosis and evaluation of adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
TLDR
Although some areas of adult ADHD knowledge remain unclear, there is a strong sense of how to proceed with diagnosis using current DSM-IV criteria as a guide and the clinician-administered interview remains the cornerstone of diagnostic evaluation. Expand
Patterns of psychiatric comorbidity, cognition, and psychosocial functioning in adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
TLDR
The results show that referred and nonreferred adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder have a pattern of demographic, psychosocial, psychiatric, and cognitive features that mirrors well-documented findings among children with the disorder. Expand
Separation of cognitive impairments in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder into 2 familial factors.
TLDR
The findings suggest the existence of 2 familial pathways to cognitive impairments in ADHD and indicate promising cognitive targets for future molecular genetic investigations. Expand
Co-transmission of conduct problems with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: familial evidence for a distinct disorder
TLDR
The finding that ADHD + CP can represent a familial distinct subtype possibly with a distinct genetic etiology is consistent with a high risk for cosegregation and provides partial support for the ICD-10 distinction betweenhyperkinetic disorder and hyperkinetic conduct disorder. Expand
Gender effects on Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity disorder in adults, revisited
TLDR
Findings in this study bear striking similarities to findings reported in pediatric samples, supporting the validity of ADHD and stressing the importance of identifying and treating the disorder in adulthood. Expand
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and risk of substance use disorder: developmental considerations, potential pathways, and opportunities for research.
TLDR
These opportunities to explain attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)-related risk of substance use disorder (SUD) remain available for study by considering characteristics of children with ADHD and factors affecting their outcomes side by side with overlapping variables in the developmental literature on SUD etiology. Expand
Does childhood attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder predict risk-taking and medical illnesses in adulthood?
TLDR
Overall, among children with ADHD, it is those who developCD/APD who have elevated risky behaviors as adults, and over their lifetime, those who did not develop CD/APD did not differ from comparison subjects in risk-taking behaviors. Expand
