Google News (ADHD)
Teens who develop ADHD and conduct problems show distinct changes in brain structure and function compared to healthy controls, while those with internalizing conditions like anxiety and depression do not. These neurodevelopmental differences are linked to specific gene expression patterns, particularly those related to cellular energy metabolism in ADHD. The findings suggest that externalizing behavioral problems may be associated with measurable shifts in cortical development during adolescence.
