Research Review: Delineating early developmental pathways to ADHD: Setting an international research agenda
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – ‘We introduce the recently established Early ADHD Consortium, an international network of investigators engaged in prospective, longitudinal studies of risk for ADHD beginning early in life, conducted within a developmental framework, and which incorporate multimethod approaches. This network seeks to harmonize measures and methodological approaches to increase the potential for data sharing and subsequent impact.’ Meghan Miller (pic) et al.

Practitioner Review: It’s time to bridge the gap – understanding the unmet needs of consumers with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder – a systematic review and recommendations
Open Access paper from the JCPP – This review examines the unmet needs of ADHD consumers from a consumer perspective. Matthew Bisset (pic) et al.

Research Review: Executive function profiles of preschool children with autism spectrum disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: A systematic review
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are both associated with differences in Executive Functioning (EF). There is lack of clarity around the specificity or overlap of EF differences in early childhood when both disorders are first emerging. This systematic review aims to delineate preschool EF profiles by examining studies comparing the EF profiles of children with and without ASD or ADHD. Marina Christoforou et al.

Editorial Perspective: Leaving the baby in the bathwater in neurodevelopmental research
Open Access paper from the JCPP – “We review three worked examples (of stress processing, early activity level in ADHD and social brain development in autism) to illustrate how these new approaches might lead to new conceptual and translatable insights into neurodevelopment”. Sam Wass and Emily J.H. Jones (pic)

Research Review: A systematic review and meta-analysis of infant and toddler temperament as predictors of childhood attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
Paper from the JCPP – “This meta-analysis examined the associations between these early temperamental factors and later symptoms and diagnosis of ADHD and mapped early temperament constructs onto the three ADHD symptom dimensions.” Heather M. Joseph et al.

The role of inflammation in the prospective associations between early childhood sleep problems and ADHD at 10 years: findings from a UK birth cohort study
Open Access paper from the JCPP – “We investigate (a) the association between early childhood sleep and probable ADHD diagnosis in childhood and (b) whether childhood circulating inflammatory markers mediate these prospective associations”. Isabel Morales-Muñoz (pic) et al.

Editorial Perspective: When to start de-implementation of interventions: the case of cognitive training for children with ADHD
Open Access paper from the JCPP – “The picture is clear that the large majority of the cognitive training paradigms that are currently being distributed commercially for children with ADHD on a large scale are not backed-up by a sufficient evidence base. This does not suggest that further treatment development research is not warranted as we believe that this line of research may one day lead to effective treatments.” Tycho J. Dekkers (pic) and Saskia van der Oord

Prospective prediction of developing internalizing disorders in ADHD
Open Access paper from the JCPP – “Clinical course in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is highly heterogeneous with respect to both core symptoms and associated features and impairment”. Sarah L. Karalunas (pic) et al.

Guest Editorial: Overview, implications, and directions of twin design research exploring neurodevelopmental conditions
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “We included 26 studies that investigated monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs discordant for ASD and sought to explore biological mechanisms and phenotypic presentations associated with non-shared environment”. Lynnea Myers and Sven Bölte

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and white matter microstructure: The importance of dimensional analyses and sex differences
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “Attention-deficit/hyperactive disorder (ADHD) has substantial heterogeneity in clinical presentation. A potentially important clue may be variation in brain microstructure. Using fractional anisotropy (FA), previous studies have produced equivocal results in relation to ADHD. This may be due to insufficient consideration of possible sex differences and ADHD’s multi-componential nature”. Scott A. Jones et al.
