NCT ID NCT07180758
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether how a child stands and walks can help predict ADHD. Researchers will measure foot pressure and posture in 100 middle school students, half with ADHD symptoms and half without. They will use machine learning to see if these physical measurements can accurately identify ADHD. The goal is to find a simple, non-invasive way to screen for the condition.
