          Early ADHD Treatment May Mean Years on Medication

          A large Finnish registry study reveals that many children, especially boys who begin ADHD medication between ages 6 and 8, remain on treatment for more than seven years. While the average duration of ADHD medication was over three years, a quarter of treated children remained on it for over seven, and some for nearly a decade.

          New Biomarker Predicts MS Progression

          Researchers have identified a new biomarker in multiple sclerosis (MS): the thickness of the inflammatory rim surrounding brain lesions predicts how quickly and severely the disease progresses. By combining PET imaging and post-mortem brain analysis, the study showed that thicker rims lead to more aggressive brain damage.

          Music-Induced “Chills” Trigger Natural Opioids in the Brain

          Listening to favorite music activates the brain’s opioid system, which is involved in feelings of pleasure and pain relief, according to a new PET imaging study. Researchers found that music-induced “chills” are linked to the release of natural opioids in key brain areas.

          Opioid Dysregulation in the Brain Tied to Eating Disorders

          Elevated opioid neurotransmission in the brain may underlie appetite loss and emotional symptoms in anorexia nervosa. Compared to healthy controls, patients with anorexia had increased opioidergic tone, which regulates appetite, pleasure, and mood.

          Early Stress Alters Sperm DNA, Impacting Offspring’s Brain Development

          Childhood stress may leave lasting marks on sperm, altering epigenetic profiles and potentially influencing brain development in offspring. Researchers found that men with high levels of childhood maltreatment had changes in DNA methylation and non-coding RNA levels in their sperm.

          Misleading Information on Depression Hampers Understanding

          A new study reveals that misleading information about depression is widespread, making it harder for people to grasp the causes of their distress. The study criticizes the circular reasoning used in psychiatric diagnoses, noting that depression is often incorrectly presented as a disorder that causes symptoms rather than a description of them. This misrepresentation is perpetuated by leading health organizations. Researchers urge for clearer communication to help people better understand their mental health.

          Caffeine Intake Doesn’t Slow Parkinson’s Progression

          A new study examined the impact of caffeine on brain dopamine function in Parkinson's patients, finding no benefits on disease progression. High caffeine consumption was linked to a greater decrease in dopamine transporter binding, likely due to a compensatory mechanism rather than neuron loss.

          Emotional Bodily Sensations Altered in Parkinson’s Patients

          People with Parkinson’s disease experience altered bodily sensations related to basic emotions differently from healthy individuals. Utilizing electronic body maps, participants identified how emotions like anger, happiness, and sadness manifested physically, noting significant shifts in sensation locations, particularly with anger moving from the chest to the abdomen.
