IS SMALL BACTERIAL OVERGROWTH ASSOCIATED WITH ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY

该子项目是利用NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为中心，不一定是研究者所在机构。本研究旨在探讨小肠细菌过度生长（SIBO）在注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）中的作用。我们的目的是证明SIBO和ADHD之间存在关联。结果测量将包括问卷调查和TOVA测试-一种测量注意力的计算机测试。这些结果中的每一个都将在抗生素治疗前后进行。SIBO和ADHA之间的关联将有助于为ADHD提供统一的治疗方法，因为目前还没有已知的ADHD病理生理学

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Our aim is to demonstrate that there is an association between SIBO and ADHD. Outcome measures will include questionnaires and the TOVA test - a computer test measuring attention. Each of these outcomes will be taken before and after antibiotic treatment. An association between SIBO and ADHA will help provide a unified treatment for ADHD since there is currently no known pathophysiology for ADHD
