A large rigorous UK multicentre RCT at King's College London, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's Maudsley Partnership and University of Southampton with Samuele Cortese funded by NIHR (National Institute for Health and Care Research), Medical Research Council and NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) found that trigeminal nerve stimulation- the only medical device cleared for ADHD children by the FDA based on a small pilot study- is not effective for children with ADHD. The paper is published today in Nature Medicine. It is so important that negative findings get highlighted in high impact journals so that patients, families and clinicians don’t waste their time and money on non-effective treatments and researchers can focus on those that work.

The debate around ADHD, in the media, medical and scientific worlds, is reaching new heights. While the existence of autism on a spectrum is now widely accepted, understanding of the ADHD continuum lags behind.

Professor Jonna Kuntsi writes in the BMJ about how we need a greater awareness of the ADHD continuum — and how impairing the symptoms are, depends also on the context.

Researchers from Kings College London are looking for 16-17-year-olds in the UK to participate in an important study on the transition from late adolescence to adulthood in young people with ADHD.
This study, called ART-transition, aims to improve prediction and prevention of negative outcomes for individuals with ADHD, through improving understanding of the challenges of this transition period. To do this, the study uses smartphones and smart watches to remotely collect data over a two-year assessment period, a new research method called Remote Monitoring Technology.
