  No, you hit the nail on the head. There are probably many people who frequent HN that have ADHD which drives up the arrows. But this is the study: https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2120529119 https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2120529119 I think it was written by AI, but basically they are saying that the eyes may be the key to linking the science of ADHD with the treatments. It's kind of boring. "Our findings demonstrate that the visual system is a platform for understanding the neural underpinnings of both complex cognitive processes (basic science) and neuropsychiatric disorders (translation). Addressing basic science hypotheses, our results are consistent with a scenario in which methylphenidate has cognitively specific effects by working through naturally selective cognitive mechanisms. Clinically, our findings suggest that the often staggeringly specific symptoms of neuropsychiatric disorders may be caused and treated by leveraging general mechanisms."
