- 注意缺陷/多动症 (ADHD) 病理生理学可能涉及铁失调.
- 研究大脑铁水平为理解ADHD提供了一个潜在的途径.
研究的目的:
- 系统地审查目前关于儿童和青少年被诊断患有多动症的脑铁异常的证据.
- 评估磁共振成像 (MRI) 技术在ADHD中量化脑铁的实用性.
主要方法:
- 根据PRISMA指南,在Medline,Scopus和Proquest (2008-2023) 中进行了系统的文献搜索.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
59
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....

Biological Influences on Intelligence
98
Intelligence is often thought to be linked to brain size, but the relationship is more complex than that. While brain size does correlate modestly with some abilities, like verbal skills, the connection is weaker for others, such as spatial reasoning. Other factors, like brain structure, also play crucial roles. For instance, despite Einstein's smaller-than-average brain, his parietal cortex, which is involved in spatial reasoning, was 15% wider, suggesting that neural density might matter...
