          Placebo Power: Patient Belief in Treatment Impacts Depression Therapy Effectiveness

          A new study sheds light on the significant role of patients' beliefs in the effectiveness of neurostimulation treatments for conditions like depression and ADHD. Analyzing five studies, the research team found that patients' perceptions of receiving real or placebo treatments often had more impact on outcomes than the treatments themselves.

          Screen Time’s Link to Autism and ADHD Explored

          Researchers examined the connection between screen time and genetic predispositions to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and ADHD. Analyzing over 6.5 million genetic polymorphisms, they determined that children genetically predisposed to ASD showed increased screen usage.

          Unlocking the “D Factor”: A New Measure for General Distractibility in ADHD

          Researchers have statistically identified a novel measure, the "d factor", which could indicate a person's general propensity towards distraction and its potential connection to ADHD. By analyzing over 1,000 participants’ responses on distraction tendencies, three core factors emerged: external distraction, unwanted intrusive thoughts, and mind-wandering.

          Genes Behind Depression Could Pave Way for Other Mental Disorders

          Researchers completed the largest-ever genetic study on depression, encompassing 1.3 million genomes. Their findings indicate that individuals with hospital-treated depression have an increased genetic risk for other psychiatric conditions like bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and substance abuse.

          Revitalizing Brains: Holistic Rehab Program Boosts Cognitive Performance

          Researchers pioneered a 12-week program that leverages lifestyle interventions and brain coaching to improve cognitive function in individuals experiencing ADHD, post-concussion syndrome, and memory loss. This multi-disciplinary, non-pharmaceutical approach notably enhances memory, mood, attention, alertness, and sleep patterns.

          Rethinking Smart: Cognitive Enhancers May Diminish Performance in Those Without ADHD

          Cognitive enhancers, often dubbed as "smart" drugs, might actually impair performance and productivity in neurotypical individuals. The study evaluated the effects of three widely used "smart" drugs using a complex decision-making task simulating everyday scenarios.

          Males with Neurodevelopmental Disorders Face Higher Risk of Testicular Cancer

          Men with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism or ADHD, have a slightly higher risk of developing testicular cancer than those without such disorders. The research is the first to provide a link between neurodevelopmental disorders and testicular cancer risk, although the absolute risk increase was less than 1%.

          Disrupted Synaptic Pruning a Key Factor in Teen Mental Health at Risk

          According to research, problems with the brain's ability to prune itself of unnecessary connections may be behind a wide range of mental health disorders that begin during adolescence. This could explain why people are often affected by more than one disorder. The discovery of a characteristic pattern of brain activity called the "neuropsychopathological factor" (NP factor) could help identify those at greatest risk of mental health problems and facilitate earlier interventions to reduce the risk.

          Teens who added walnuts to their diet for 100 days showed improvements in attention function, and for those with ADHD, frequent walnut consumption was associated with improvements in behavior. Researchers also noted an increase in fluid intelligence in those who frequently consumed walnuts as part of their daily diet.

          Do Altered Gut Microbes Affect Risk of ADHD?

          The Candida albicans species of gut bacteria are abundant in children with ADHD. Candida albicans increase the permeability of cells lining the intestines. This may create a "leaky gut" that allows bacteria to flow into the bloodstream and ultimately results in inflammation throughout the body and brain.

          Overwhelmed? Your Astrocytes Can Help With That

          New research reveals a newly discovered brain circuit that involves astrocytes, a type of brain cell that tunes into and moderates the chatter between overactive neurons. This discovery could hold the key to treating attention disorders like ADHD, and sheds new light on how the brain processes information when overwhelmed.
