F. J. Quintero Gutiérrez del Álamo
To comprehensively understand ADHD from its historical origins to the most recent advances in genetics and neuroimaging, its clinical manifestation throughout life and the diverse treatment options, F. J. Quintero Gutiérrez del Álamo offers an essential immersion into this neurobiological disorder.
A deep and exhaustive dive into Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), covering its earliest historical references and the gradual evolution of its understanding as a clinical entity, up to the most recent and cutting-edge discoveries in the field of genetics, identifying markers and molecular pathways, as well as in neuroimaging, which reveal functional and structural differences in the brain. A detailed description of the clinical presentation is included, explaining how inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity manifest at different life stages, from childhood and adolescence to adulthood, and how they impact academic performance, work, and interpersonal relationships, without overlooking its frequent comorbidities. The various current treatment options are also analyzed, ranging from pharmacological approaches with stimulants and non-stimulants, to psychotherapeutic interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, parent training programs, and educational support strategies. This entire journey is approached under the fundamental premise that ADHD is a neurobiological disorder that not only significantly affects individuals but also transforms and adapts throughout the different life stages, requiring a dynamic and personalized approach in its management.
