The study reveals that adolescents with ADHD have age-related increases in glutamate levels in the prefrontal cortex, unlike those who experience remission or have never had ADHD. This anomaly could be linked to the pathology of ADHD. Understanding this difference could help in developing targeted treatments. The underlying cause of this glutamate level discrepancy remains unclear.
