ADHD is characterized by 18 symptoms divided into Inattentive and Hyperactive/Impulsive categories, leading to various presentations. Research on adult ADHD has identified symptoms specific to adults, such as cognitive inflexibility and emotional dysregulation. A recent brain mapping study analyzed structural MRIs of children with ADHD, comparing them to controls, to explore the heterogeneity of ADHD and identify distinct biotypes. This innovative approach may influence future understanding and treatment of ADHD in both children and adults.
