Abstract

在這個三年期的前瞻研究中,我們將收集300位罹患ADHD的兒童或青少年,其中接受藥物治療與非藥物治療個案比例約為2:1,並進行12個月的追蹤,在治療前後分別評估臨床症狀與神經心理功能、收集糞便與血液檢體,分析其腸道細菌和真菌群落、特定代謝物與治療效果之間的相互作用。另外我們將結合大鼠動物模型,以候選代謝物注射,並讓大鼠攝取細菌/真菌,釐清腸道微生物與相關代謝物對ADHD行為的影響。這些資訊可能成為ADHD患者未來研究和臨床治療的重要參考。例如,我們可以根據這項研究的發現來開發益生菌或矯正代謝物的異常,進而改善ADHD的治療效果。因此本研究將有高度的臨床應用與經濟價值,並有申請專利與技術轉移的潛力。
