Evidence base on the pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents

In my talk I will provide a critical overview on the evidence base for the pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), mainly relying on the mist updated and methodologically rigorous pairwise, network (NMA) and individual patient data (IPD) meta-analyses of randomized controlled trails (RCTs) or observational studies.

I will critically discuss: 1) the issue of the quality of the studies; 2) the timing (short-term and long-term) of the effects; 3) to which extent current guidelines are informed by the evidence base; and 4) the gaps between evidence base and daily clinical practice.
