When the children were diagnosed as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), whether or not to use drug therapy? Millions of parents to make a decision. This is a very controversial issue. More and more studies show that, although drugs can temporarily children calmed down, but not long-term improvements in children with academic performance, and peer relations or adverse sexual attack.
Thus, scholars have focused on the study of the neurobiology of the disease mechanism. Recent studies have shown that children with ADHD have cognitive impairment, especially the working memory obstacles. Working memory is preserved head of the guidance information. This cognitive impairment will lead to behavioural changes, such as focusing attention, such as poor academic performance. Such research not only on drug therapy in children with ADHD questioned the value, but will redefine this disease and lead to more meaningful treatment methods, including cognitive training.
University of Toronto Professor of Psychiatry Rose-maryTannock said: Such studies enable us to the understanding of this disease from behavioral changes to the level of the biological level. Tannock studies have shown that, although the drug stimulation can improve working memory, but the results are very Micro. She said it explained that medication alone is not enough. Therefore, she and other researchers (such as the United Kingdom Susan Gathercole of the University of Durham) and the school co-operation, the introduction of training in the teaching methods of working memory. In fact, the obstacle to working memory capacity may lead to a variety of obstacles, not only ADHD, and is the heterogeneity of the disease.
Stockholm Institute of neuroscientists karolinska Torkel klingberg explained: Whether you doing in their daily lives, working memory is the bottleneck of executive function. Cogmed karolingka Institute is the establishment of a biotechnology company, which Klingberg study on the basis of the development of a training program memory. In a recent one published in the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry ( American children and youth psychiatry Society magazine ) on the article, Klingberg reported 20 drug treatment without ADHD children by five weeks After the training, 60% of which no longer meet the clinical diagnostic criteria for ADHD. The company has its training methods in Sweden and Germany universal second half of this year, will be karolinska Institute in cooperation with New York University, an ADHD clinical trials.
Tannnock commented: These research data will be very interesting. Focus on visual spatial memory, because it is the attention to the obstacles to more closely the relationship between ADHD said, but they must go further. Also proved that the completion of a series of training to improve the capacity, and not only to retain the information.
For Lawrence H. Diller (child psychiatrist, Running on Ritalin author of the book) such experts, ADHD children on cognitive training so that they would not be surprised. Diller said: excessive attention to the activities and do not always focus on the symptoms at the same time. Medication in the treatment of children of normal and non-normal conditions between. According to Diner experience, close to normal children benefit from the majority of non-drug training methods. The role of drugs are often exaggerated by the pharmaceutical industry, the industry has changed the people s own point of view. Thus, we must show personal responsibility in the life of the disease.
However, Diner and others that the absence of corporate funding, the role of behavioral therapy was seriously underestimated. Principal researcher at the University of Buffalo William pelham said, Treatment of multi-mode (Multi-modal Treatment Study), the largest in the United States on January 1 ADHD children on the long-term effect of unpublished data show that only acceptable behavior therapy (Parent training, school intervention and a specialized summer camp project) children, two years after its functions and accepted large dose drug treatment of children the same. Moreover, the end of the second year, children with behavior therapy group and only 8 percent received drug treatment, and this shows that this group of parents of children with behavior therapy are satisfied with the results.
The two-year research study with the results of it until the 14 months are inconsistent with the findings, which suggest that the efficacy of treatment as a large dose of the drug therapy. While most experts agree that when necessary combination of the two treatments, but drug therapy is usually provided by the only choice, and Palhem said, to let parents know that there are alternative treatments.
In view of behavior therapy and training to effectively control symptoms, suggesting that many children with ADHD can be no medication. However, behavior therapy and working memory training needs of parents, teachers and therapists to the diligence and patience, which is a fast-paced society is not an easy thing, the need to pop a pill than to pay much more time and energy.
