Paper Summary:

This paper analyzes the neurobiological disorder Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder The paper begins by defining A.D.H.D. It then discusses the etiology, treatment options, gender and cultural characteristics, as well as the future prognosis of the disorder.

From the Paper:

"Currently there is no "cure" for ADHD. Children with the disorder seldom outgrow it; however, some may find adaptive ways to accommodate ADHD as they mature. The long-term prognosis when ADHD is unrecognized and untreated in the adolescent is discouraging: maternal and prenatal morbidity may be anticipated. The actual assessment of risk in the setting of pregnancy and unrecognized ADHD remains largely unknown, and the benefits of timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment of ADHD during pregnancy have yet to be addressed."
