Physical exercise in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder – evidence and implications for the treatment of borderline personality disorder

Abstract: A growing body of literature indicates a potential role for physical exercise in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Suggested effects include the reduction of ADHD core symptoms as well as improvements in executive functions. In the current review, we provide a short overview on the neurophysiological mechanisms assumed to underlie the beneficial effects of exercise. Further, we review the current evidence from experimental studies regarding both acute exercise and long-term inte… Show more

“…Children with behavioural disorders may be more attracted to physical activity, or their parents encourage physical activity as a means to dealing with behavioural issues. Indeed, physical activity has been identified as an effective means to manage ADHD symptoms and behavioural disorders [44,45]. So in this context, the findings are not completely unexpected.…”

“…The BSL-23 covers DSM Section II BPD diagnostic criteria (e.g., affective instability, suicidality, transient psychotic symptoms) in addition to other affective experiences typical of borderline pathology (e.g., shame, self-criticism, mistrustfulness, and helplessness). The severity grades proposed by Kleindienst et al [ 28 ] received robust empirical support from established assessments for psychopathology across three samples. Items are scored on a five-point Likert scale.…”

“…Patients were first asked to complete a computerized self-report battery of questionnaires, and then took part in a clinical interview led by a clinical psychologist, who produced a detailed evaluation report. In line with the objectives of the present study, a total of 211 patients 1 (133 women, M age = 33.66, SD = 10.97) were selected based on the presence of at least moderate borderline pathology according to cutoffs recently proposed by Kleindienst et al [ 28 ] for the short version of the Borderline Symptom List ( [ 29 ]; see below). According to these proposed grades of borderline symptom severity, 26.5% had a moderate level of pathology (score 0.7–1.7; n = 56), 40.8% had a high level (1.7–2.7; n = 86), 25.1% had a very high level (2.7–3.5; n = 53), and 6.6% had an extremely high level (3.5–4; n = 14).…”

“…Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder in children or early adolescents [ 1 ] with an estimated worldwide prevalence of 7.2% [ 2 ]. In 60% of affected individuals, ADHD symptoms persist until adulthood [ 3 ].…”
