🧪 New research identified 3 distinct neurobiological subtypes of ADHD, potentially serving as a step toward a more personalized approach to ADHD in the future: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/finding-order-in-the-complexity-of-adhd-a-brain-imaging-study-identifies-three-neurobiological-subtypes

Our research found that genetics may influence whether patients continue their ADHD medication, but it's a complex relationship: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/why-do-so-many-people-with-adhd-stop-taking-their-medication-our-new-study-sheds-light-on-the-role-of-genetics
New study finds babies who experience newborn seizures are 2x more likely to develop ADHD and 3x more likely to be diagnosed with autism: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/swedish-nationwide-population-study-newborn-seizures-double-risk-of-adhd
🧪 A new research review has found that even a single exercise session can improve focus and impulse control: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/meta-analysis-finds-small-to-moderate-benefits-of-single-exercise-sessions-for-adult-adhd
(cont.) we just posted this recently, which explains a bit more about the intrinsic but complex relationship between ADHD and poverty: www.instagram.com/p/DVbeM_ODgS-/
The genetic predisposition is there first but, yes for sure, there are many complex factors to consider.
🧪 Meta-analysis: ADHD linked to ~2× higher risk of non-suicidal self-injury. www.adhdevidence.org/blog/meta-analysis-finds-people-with-adhd-twice-as-likely-to-self-harm
🧪 Meta-analysis: Cognitive skills linked to academics, supportive relationships tied to behavioral and mental health outcomes: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/meta-analysis-identifies-resilience-factors-associated-with-improved-outcomes-in-children-and-adolescents-with-adhd #science
🧪 New data suggest relative fat mass may link to ADHD differently by sex (lower odds in boys, higher in girls):a reminder that sex-specific analysis matters in ADHD research.www.adhdevidence.org/blog/higher-relative-fat-mass-rfm-associated-with-lower-adhd-risk-in-boys-but-higher-adhd-risk-in-girls
🧪 U.S. data show ADHD prevalence varies with socioeconomic context. www.adhdevidence.org/blog/us-study-highlights-the-social-roots-of-adhd
🧪 Isolated single umbilical artery not associated with ADHD overall. A weak, female-specific signal emerged, but effect sizes were small and not clinically significant. www.adhdevidence.org/blog/norwegian-nationwide-population-study-single-umbilical-artery-shows-weak-link-to-adhd
🧪 Prior eye disorders associated with ~40% higher subsequent ADHD diagnosis. Observational data → association, not causation. www.adhdevidence.org/blog/large-cohort-study-reports-association-between-eye-disorders-and-adhd
🧪 PPIs & H2 blockers in pregnancy:
Reported risks are small, inconsistent, and often confounded.

For years, a persistent concern has shadowed the treatment of ADHD: Does stimulant medication eventually stop working? Here's what the evidence says: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/the-medication-tolerance-myth-in-adhd-what-the-evidence-actually-says
🧪 New data on ADHD, obesity, adult height, & methylphenidate. What the evidence says: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/south-korean-nationwide-population-study-finds-association-between-extended-methylphenidate-use-by-children-and-subsequent-obesity-little-to-no-effect-on-adult-height
Thank you so much! We do try 🫡
Wading through research to find the most up-to-date, evidence-based treatments can be tedious and time-consuming (trust us-we know!) The Treatment Explorer on EBI-ADHD is straightforward and easy to use: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/evidence-based-interventions-for-adhd
ADHD doesn't affect everyone the same way, so why do so many studies treat ADHD patients as a monolith? This study will provide real-world data on the effects of ADHD medications: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/patient-centered-outcomes-research-institute-pcori-to-fund-landmark-adhd-medication-study
Our very own Dr.Faraone discusses ADHD genetics and heritability, as well as best practices in diagnostic and treatment strategies: www.youtube.com/watch?v=asBY...
🧪 We share ADHD study highlights often, but for a full overview (interactive matrix!) of evidence-based treatments, we recommend EBI-ADHD: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/evidence-based-interventions-for-adhd
🧪 Weak links found between ADHD and thyroid hormones, but no differences in growth or appetite hormones, according to a new meta-analysis. Evidence: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/meta-analysis-finds-tenuous-links-between-adhd-and-thyroid-hormone-dysregulation
🧪 New meta-analysis on ART(IVF, etc) and ADHD finds only a small increase in diagnoses. What this means for patients and clinicians: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/meta-analysis-finds-assisted-reproductive-techniques-associated-with-offspring-adhd
🧪 New study finds untreated ADHD is linked to higher myopia risk—but dopaminergic meds may offer protection: www.adhdevidence.org/blog/taiwan-nationwide-population-study-concludes-dopaminergic-adhd-medications-reduce-risk-of-myopia
