TL;DR: Following the use of stimulant medication, an important subset of children with ADHD continued to demonstrate motor difficulties and the improvement in behaviour was insufficient to resolve motor problems and these children should therefore be targeted for rehabilitation services.

TL;DR: The International Collaborative Statement on Circulatory determination of death (cDCDD) as mentioned in this paper aims at expanding the use of circulatory determination for organ transplantation in the world to help countries progress towards self-sufficiency in transplantation and offer more patients the opportunity of organ donation.
Abstract: A decision to withdraw life-sustaining treatment (WLST) is derived by a conclusion that further treatment will not enable a patient to survive or will not produce a functional outcome with acceptable quality of life that the patient and the treating team regard as beneficial. Although many hospitalized patients die under such circumstances, controlled donation after the circulatory determination of death (cDCDD) programs have been developed only in a reduced number of countries. This International Collaborative Statement aims at expanding cDCDD in the world to help countries progress towards self-sufficiency in transplantation and offer more patients the opportunity of organ donation. The Statement addresses three fundamental aspects of the cDCDD pathway. First, it describes the process of determining a prognosis that justifies the WLST, a decision that should be prior to and independent of any consideration of organ donation and in which transplant professionals must not participate. Second, the Statement establishes the permanent cessation of circulation to the brain as the standard to determine death by circulatory criteria. Death may be declared after an elapsed observation period of 5 min without circulation to the brain, which confirms that the absence of circulation to the brain is permanent. Finally, the Statement highlights the value of perfusion repair for increasing the success of cDCDD organ transplantation. cDCDD protocols may utilize either in situ or ex situ perfusion consistent with the practice of each country. Methods to accomplish the in situ normothermic reperfusion of organs must preclude the restoration of brain perfusion to not invalidate the determination of death.

TL;DR: This is the third (Werry et al., 1964; Douglas et al, 1963) report on some of the findings resulting from a current study of the hyperactive child of normal intelligence where hyperactivity has been defined as a chronic, sustained, excessive level of motor activity which is the cause of significant and continued complaint both at home and at school.
Abstract: This is the third (Werry et al., 1964; Douglas et al., 1963) report on some of the findings resulting from a current study of the hyperactive child of normal intelligence where hyperactivity has been defined as a chronic, sustained, excessive level of motor activity which is the cause of significant and continued complaint both at home and at school. 'Vith the emphasis upon motor activity alone, this definition differs from that of the hyperkinetic syndrome (Laufer and Denhoff, 1957) which usually includes other symptoms such as poor emotional control, irritability, aggressivity, and specific cognitive defects. In a previous paper (Werry et al., 1964) it was suggested that
