To our knowledge, the exploration of working
memory-related brain activation using the CN-BT has not
been previously reported in children and adolescents
with ADHD. In addition to having activation within the
sensory-motor pathways and the striato-cerebellum
circuit similar to that of healthy controls with related
visual-object and action cognitive strategies, the ADHD
patients also showed task-negative activation in the
fronto-cingulate-parietal network involved in working
memory. Additionally, the higher activation of the
bilateral globus pallidus and right hippocampus in ADHD
patients compared to healthy controls revealed an
important role in the pathophysiology of ADHD related to
working memory.
