The thesis addresses Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), examining how it manifests and its implications on the lives of those affected. It is emphasized that ADHD is influenced by genetic, environmental, and neurobiological factors. The disorder significantly impacts interpersonal relationships and school or work productivity. The main purpose of the study is to deepen the understanding of ADHD through the analysis of its causes, diagnosis, and possible therapies, to improve management strategies for the disorder. This study includes reviews of existing literature, analysis of qualitative and quantitative data, and sometimes empirical studies to examine the effectiveness of different treatment approaches. The results indicate that abnormalities in the transmission of neurotransmitters such as dopamine and noradrenaline play a significant role in the symptoms of ADHD. Structural and functional brain studies show differences in individuals with ADHD, supporting the importance of targeted treatments that consider these neurobiological aspects. The thesis concludes that a detailed understanding of the neurobiology of ADHD is crucial for developing more effective and personalized treatments. Additionally, it highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment strategies that consider both behavioral and neurological aspects of the disorder.
La tesi si occupa del Disturbo da Deficit di Attenzione e Iperattività (ADHD), esaminando come si manifesta e quali sono le sue implicazioni sulla vita di chi ne soffre. Viene sottolineato che l'ADHD è influenzato da fattori genetici, ambientali e neurobiologici. Il disturbo impatta significativamente le relazioni interpersonali e la produttività scolastica o lavorativa. Lo scopo principale dello studio è approfondire la comprensione dell'ADHD attraverso l'analisi delle sue cause, della sua diagnostica e delle possibili terapie, per migliorare le strategie di gestione del disturbo. In questo studio si includono revisioni di letteratura esistente, analisi di dati qualitativi e quantitativi, e talvolta studi empirici per esaminare l'efficacia di diversi approcci di trattamento. I risultati indicano che le anomalie nella trasmissione dei neurotrasmettitori come la dopamina e la noradrenalina giocano un ruolo significativo nei sintomi dell'ADHD. Studi strutturali e funzionali del cervello mostrano differenze nei soggetti con ADHD, sostenendo l'importanza di trattamenti mirati che considerino questi aspetti neurobiologici. La tesi conclude che una comprensione dettagliata della neurobiologia dell'ADHD è cruciale per sviluppare trattamenti più efficaci e personalizzati. Inoltre, sottolinea l'importanza di una diagnosi accurata e di strategie di trattamento che considerino sia gli aspetti comportamentali che neurologici del disturbo.

Abstract
The thesis addresses Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), examining how it manifests and its implications on the lives of those affected. It is emphasized that ADHD is influenced by genetic, environmental, and neurobiological factors. The disorder significantly impacts interpersonal relationships and school or work productivity. The main purpose of the study is to deepen the understanding of ADHD through the analysis of its causes, diagnosis, and possible therapies, to improve management strategies for the disorder. This study includes reviews of existing literature, analysis of qualitative and quantitative data, and sometimes empirical studies to examine the effectiveness of different treatment approaches. The results indicate that abnormalities in the transmission of neurotransmitters such as dopamine and noradrenaline play a significant role in the symptoms of ADHD. Structural and functional brain studies show differences in individuals with ADHD, supporting the importance of targeted treatments that consider these neurobiological aspects. The thesis concludes that a detailed understanding of the neurobiology of ADHD is crucial for developing more effective and personalized treatments. Additionally, it highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment strategies that consider both behavioral and neurological aspects of the disorder.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
