JOURNAL ARTICLES:

A 30-Year Prospective Follow-up Study of Hyperactive Boys With Conduct Problems: Adult Criminality. (J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry. 2007) "CONCLUSIONS: Hyperactive/ADHD boys with conduct problems are at increased risk for adult criminality. Hyperactive boys without childhood conduct problems are not at increased risk for later criminality. An intensive 3-year MMT treatment of 6- to 12-year-old hyperactive boys is insufficient to prevent later adult criminality."

A structural neural deficit in adolescents with conduct disorder and its association with lack of empathy. (Neuroimage. 2007)

ADHD With Comorbid Oppositional Defiant Disorder or Conduct Disorder: Discrete or Nondistinct Disruptive Behavior Disorders? (J Atten Disord. 2007)

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and callous-unemotional traits as moderators of conduct problems when examining impairment and aggression in elementary school children. (Aggress Behav. 2007)

Clinical precursors of adolescent conduct disorder in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. (J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry. 2007) " CONCLUSIONS:: ODD is a significant precursor of adolescent CD in children with ADHD independent of ADHD severity. Considering the negative prognosis of ADHD with comorbid CD, it is imperative that clinicians pay specific attention to the presence of childhood ODD behaviors."

Conduct disorder subtype and comorbidity. (Ann Clin Psychiatry. 2007)

Familial and temperamental predictors of resilience in children at risk for conduct disorder and depression. (Dev Psychopathol. 2007)

From conduct disorder to severe mental illness: associations with aggressive behaviour, crime and victimization. (Psychol Med. 2007) "CONCLUSIONS: Men and women with severe mental illness who have a history of CD by mid-adolescence are at increased risk for aggressive behaviour and violent crime. These patients are easily identifiable and may benefit from learning-based treatments aimed at reducing antisocial behaviour. Longitudinal, prospective investigations are needed to understand why CD is more common among people with than without schizophrenia."

Intergenerational Transmission of Childhood Conduct Problems (Arch Gen Psychiatry. 2007)

Is Oppositional Defiant Disorder a Meaningful Diagnosis in Adults?: Results From a Large Sample of Adults With ADHD. (J Nerv Ment Dis. 2007)

Lifetime prevalence, correlates, and persistence of oppositional defiant disorder: results from the National Comorbidity Survey Replication. (J Child Psychol Psychiatry. 2007) "Results: Lifetime prevalence of ODD is estimated to be 10.2% (males = 11.2%; females = 9.2%). Of those with lifetime ODD, 92.4% meet criteria for at least one other lifetime DSM-IV disorder, including: mood (45.8%), anxiety (62.3%), impulse-control (68.2%), and substance use (47.2%) disorders. ODD is temporally primary in the vast majority of cases for most comorbid disorders. Both active and remitted ODD significantly predict subsequent onset of secondary disorders even after controlling for comorbid conduct disorder (CD). Early onset (before age 8) and comorbidity predict slow speed of recovery of ODD. Conclusions: ODD is a common child- and adolescent-onset disorder associated with substantial risk of secondary mood, anxiety, impulse-control, and substance use disorders. These results support the study of ODD as a distinct disorder."

Maternal Alcohol Drinking During Pregnancy Linked to Conduct Problems in Children "Prenatal alcohol exposure is associated with increased conduct problems in offspring, independent of genetic factors."

Practice parameter for the assessment and treatment of children and adolescents with oppositional defiant disorder. ( Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry. 2007) " Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) is a common clinical problem in children and adolescents. Oppositionality and associated types of aggressive behavior are among the most common referral problems in child psychiatry. Grouped among the disruptive behavior disorders, ODD is frequently comorbid with other psychiatric conditions and often precedes the development of conduct disorder (CD), substance abuse, and severely delinquent behavior."

Predictors, clinical characteristics, and outcome of conduct disorder in girls with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: a longitudinal study. (Psychol Med. 2007) "Conclusions. ADHD is a significant risk factor for CD in girls. CD is associated with increased risk for academic, psychiatric and sexual behavior problems compared to ADHD girls without CD. Given that the therapeutic approaches indicated by ADHD and CD differ, these findings highlight the importance of improved efforts aimed at early identification and treatment of CD in girls with ADHD."

Similar autonomic responsivity in boys with conduct disorder and their fathers. (J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry. 2007)

Timing of Menarche and the Origins of Conduct Disorder (Medscape Psychiatry & Mental Health. 2007) "Girls with precocious menarche were 1.29 times more likely to have 3 or more DSM-III-R conduct disorder symptoms and 1.67 times more likely to have 2 or more symptoms than girls with typical age at menarche."
