Evaluate attempts to validate infantile attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity in adults.
The clinical features and the biological features (genetic conditioning, neurotransmitter disorders, response to medication) presented by authors in favor of recognizing adult attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity were reviewed. A typical clinical case is reported and the findings on which this proposal has been based were analyzed critically to evaluate their reliability.
At present, evidence is insufficient to sustain the validity of adult attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity as an independent psychiatric diagnostic entity. Nonetheless, research into this group of disorders should continue using rigorous methods, advanced studies of biological markers, neuropsychological techniques, and cognitive examination.
评估验证成人注意力缺陷障碍及多动症状的尝试。
回顾了作者们提出的支持成人注意力缺陷障碍及多动症状的临床特征和生物学特征(基因条件、神经递质紊乱、药物反应)。报告了一个典型临床病例,并对该提议所依据的研究结果进行了批判性分析,以评估其可靠性。
目前,证据不足以支持将成人注意力缺陷障碍及多动症状作为一个独立的精神科诊断实体的有效性。尽管如此,对这组疾病的研究仍应继续采用严谨的方法、先进的生物标志物研究、神经心理学技术和认知检查。
