Zhang Q, Du G, John V, Kapahi P, Bredesen DE. Alzheimer's Model Develops Early ADHD Syndrome. J Neurol Neurophysiol. 2015;6(6):1-6. PMID: 26753104.
From the abstract: "We describe the first invertebrate model of attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) that reproduces its major features,
including hyperactivity, male predominance, marked exacerbation by
simple carbohydrates, ... This model may offer new insight
into ADHD pathogenesis and treatment. Furthermore, these findings are of
particular interest in light of the recent epidemiological evidence
showing that patients with dementia have a high frequency of antecedent
ADHD symptoms."
