Abstract:
This article discusses the growing trend among providers of computer-aided engineering analysis tools to market different types of analysis software packages, many of them integrated with computer-aided design packages and all of them accessible to engineers without special training. Common computer software tools offer speed and ease of use to designers who must make repetitive calculations. Engineers who use analysis programs nowadays use those programs to complement their CAD software. In other words, without design there is generally no need for analysis. The reasons engineers use CAD software are usually the same much like the reasons they turn to analysis software. Analysis reduces the number of prototypes necessary and further not only reduces development costs and but also shortens the design cycle. Additionally, such an analysis can decrease the time and cost of testing both virtual and actual prototypes. By decreasing testing and prototype time, the product gets to market quicker.

Abstract:
In order to solve the problems of restricted classroom and lack of repeated training in good curriculum, the design and development of a school life adaptation curriculum based on VR is proposed. This study identified six life adaptation themes for design and development (recognizing facial expressions, crossing the road, how to get lost, shopping, taking public transport, and job interview) and set the objectives, design principles, specific content, teaching evaluation, and other aspects of virtual reality life adaptation course. Combined with the characteristics of virtual reality, the implementation suggestions and matters needing attention are put forward. The results showed that, in the recognition of human facial expressions, 51 experts thought it was appropriate, 3 experts thought it needed to be modified, and no expert thought it was inappropriate. On the topic of crossing the road, 46 experts thought it was appropriate, eight thought it needed to be modified, and no expert thought it was inappropriate. On the theme of taking public transportation, 48 experts thought it was appropriate, 6 experts thought it needed to be modified, and no expert thought it was inappropriate. For the three major topics of how to get lost, shopping, and job interview, 2-3 experts put forward different opinions and think that the topic is not appropriate mainly because the grade arrangement is not appropriate. Conclusion. The VR-based curriculum for school life adaptation has been reviewed by experts and revised by researchers. It is scientific, interesting, and operable, solves the teaching problems of life adaptation teachers, and provides a safe, reliable, and effective practice channel for students.

Abstract:
SummaryCognitive emulation is an expert System design strategy which attempts to model System performance on human (expert) thinking. Arguments for and against cognitive emulation are reviewed. A major conclusion is that a significant degree of cognitive emulation is an inherent feature of design, but that an unselective application of the strategy is both unrealistic and undesirable. Pragmatic considerations which limit or facilitate the viability of a cognitive emulation approach are discussed. Particular attention is given to the conflict between cognitive emulation and established knowledge engineering objectives, detailed over 12 typical expert System features. The paper suggests circum-stances in which a strategy of cognitive emulation is useful.

Abstract:
Engineering design must be cost-effective over its complete life cycle and this necessitates a statistical approach to product and service reliability. A particular design therefore has a finite probability of failure during its lifetime and this has implications in terms of ensuring that design procedures, management of design, and operation and inspection are appropriate, effective and sufficient. Sophisticated expert system software packages have enabled wide access to rapid development to prototype and production stages. The expert knowledge encapsulated in such systems may be inadvertently used outside its intended application envelope, leading to unexpected and unwelcome failures. This paper highlights the role of failure analysis and fractography in the context of product reliability. It will present case studies illustrating typical structural reliability problems that highlight issues connected with the ‘reliability’ of experts in assessing the reasons for failure.

Abstract:
An information center (IC) is described as an organization designed to help end users help themselves. ICs are expected to provide several services to end users. The services can be summarized as: consultation, distribution and trouble-shooting. The research is focused on a specific consultation activity: software selection. Providing support for selection and evaluation of software for users constitutes 91.5 percent of a typical IC's daily workload. In the last decade, ICs have proved successful in managing software resources for organizations. The initial success of ICs has increased user expectations and demand for the services offered but, because ICs are considered cost centers in most organizations, there is growing pressure for them to accomplish more with fewer resources. The research hypothesis is that the knowledge and methodologies of IC consultants, concerning software selection, as well as relevant institutional policies, can be represented in a knowledge base. A knowledge-based system ICE (Information Center Expert) to assist users with software selection has been developed and evaluated in the study reported here. The development of ICE used two main design criteria: maintainability and transportability. Maintainability was defined as the ability to support frequent updating of the software supported by an IC. This is important because new software tools are introduced in the market at a very rapid rate; to stay competitive an IC must be able continually to adapt to this dynamic environment. Transportability was considered necessary to make ICE usable in many different ICs, each supporting a different set of software. The transportability feature allows different ICs to individualize the system to meet their own site-specific needs. Validation studies were conducted to test the appropriateness of the recommendations made by ICE, using "blind" validation procedures in which scenarios (in case form) were presented to consultants. The cases were selected to represent problems frequently taken to an IC. Two sets of solutions, those offered by consultants and those provided by ICE, were then presented to experts who were asked to judge the appropriateness of each solution to a case without knowing its source. To test the comparative advantages of using ICE or IC consultants to obtain assistance with software selection a laboratory experiment was conducted. A hypothetical construct called "Consultation Effectiveness" was used, which included measures for "user satisfaction" with the process, as well as measures for the "task basis" and the "recommendation basis" for evaluating a consultation session.

Abstract:
Quality assurance is a crucial function to the successful development and maintenance of a software system. Because this activity has a significant impact on the cost of software development, the cost-effectiveness of quality assurance is a major concern to the software quality manager. There are tradeoffs between the economic benefits and costs of quality assurance. Using the Dynamo model of software project management, an optimal quality assurance level and its distribution throughout a project's lifecycle can be identified. The focus of this thesis is to automated the process of identifying the optimum quality assurance level. An expert system was developed that, when interfaced with the Dynamo model, will generate the optimum quality assurance distribution for a given set of parameters. The ability of the expert system to generated more cost-effective quality assurance levels than manually achievable was shown.

Abstract:
AbstractLegacy systems are business-critical software systems whose failure can have a significant impact on the business. Yet, their maintenance and adaption to changed requirements consume a considerable amount of the total software development costs. Frequently, domain experts and developers involved in the original development are not available anymore, making it difficult to adapt a legacy system without introducing bugs or unwanted behavior. This results in a dilemma: businesses are reluctant to change a working system, while at the same time struggling with its high maintenance costs. We propose the concept of Structured Software Reengineering replacing the ad hoc forward engineering part of a reengineering process with the application of behavior-preserving, proven-correct transformations improving nonfunctional program properties. Such transformations preserve valuable business logic while improving properties such as maintainability, performance, or portability to new platforms. Manually encoding and proving such transformations for industrial programming languages, for example, in interactive proof assistants, is a major challenge requiring deep expert knowledge. Existing frameworks for automatically proving transformation rules have limited expressiveness and are restricted to particular target applications such as compilation or peep-hole optimizations. We present Abstract Execution, a specification and verification framework for statement-based program transformation rules on JAVA programs building on symbolic execution. Abstract Execution supports universal quantification over statements or expressions and addresses properties about the (big-step) behavior of programs. Since this class of properties is useful for a plethora of applications, Abstract Execution bridges the gap between expressiveness and automation. In many cases, fully automatic proofs are in possible. We explain REFINITY, a workbench for modeling and proving statement-level JAVA transformation rules, and discuss our applications of Abstract Execution to code refactoring, cost analysis of program transformations, and transformations reshaping programs for the application of parallel design patterns.

Abstract:
Abstract Power electronic converters are key components in modern power systems. Due to the special characteristics such as processing power flow and operating in switching mode, the layout and routing of power electronic converters are still mainly performed manually, with a low level of automation. This paper reviews the research related to the layout and routing of the main circuits of power electronic converters, distills the core requirements, categorizes the research into traditional layout and deep learning layout methods, and analyzes the characteristics of different approaches. In addition, the paper also proposes a hierarchical layout and routing design framework that can effectively reduce the design parameter space and fully leverage the advantages of design tools such as expert knowledge, deep reinforcement learning, and traditional algorithms. Based on this algorithmic framework, the paper demonstrates the design cases of the self-developed software “Ai BuDao” in the scenario of low-power circuits, preliminarily showing the effectiveness of this design framework.

An important enhancement in this system not found in most Expert Systems is an Uncertainty Processor. The Uncertainty Processor calculates the estimated uncertainty (and its precision) associated with the delivered proposed conclusion. This is accomplished by calculating the cumulative values determined by propagating and combining the estimated error and precision found in each and every Rule and Fact used in the chaining logic required in arriving at the proposed final conclusion.

Abstract This paper describes the development of an expert tool for vehicle design that assists the designer in avoiding bad design decisions, which may cause corrosion problems during the life of the vehicle. The tool is an autonomous agent installed as part of designer's CAD/CAE system. It uses a Hybrid Expert Production System containing Rules in its Knowledge Base and both an Inference Engine that compares these stored Rules with the information (Facts) provided by the designer and CAD/CAE software and a Bayesian Network for processing uncertainty in the facts and rules. An important enhancement in this system not found in most Expert Systems is an Uncertainty Processor. The Bayesian Net calculates the cumulative uncertainty determined by propagating and combining the estimated error found in each and every Rule and Fact used in the chaining logic required in arriving at the proposed final conclusion. Also included is a Knowledge Acquisition Facility used by corrosion and vehicle design experts to load supporting knowledge and Rules into the Knowledge Base, and an on-demand Explanation Facility to detail the logic used by the system to arrive at the conclusion.

Abstract:
Abstract The transfer of sound corrosion knowledge from human experts to dedicated software tools has been individuated as a strategic activity, and, accordingly, a number of applications have been developed in recent years. This approach to corrosion, which represents a new phase, coming after those of corrosion science and corrosion engineering, has been labelled “corrosion intelligence”(1), and it matches several needs of an oil company, as: standardisation of design procedures; “capitalization” of available knowledge in programs easy to update; decentralisation of the expertise. The paper illustrates an expert system dealing with all aspects related to oil and gas pipeline corrosion, including: internal and external corrosion; material selection and corrosion control requirements; internal corrosion monitoring; coatings; cathodic protection; corrosion in transient phases; intelligent pig inspection; costs comparison. In particular, the modules for internal and external corrosion assessment are described. The general architecture of the application, based on independent expert modules, is discussed in detail and examples of results, with relevant interfaces, are shown. The expert system is also evaluated with respect to another software application for the assessment of corrosion risks.

Abstract This paper presents a 3D software tool for the design and optimization of cathodic protection systems for submerged structures. It provides the corrosion engineer an intelligent tool for managing operational costs, significantly reducing expensive commissioning surveys and costly repairs, adding major value to the cathodic protection business. A Finite Element Model (FEM) is used to solve the potential model taking into account ohmic drop effects in the electrolyte and cabling and non-linear polarization behaviour at both the cathode and anode. From the resulting potential field in the seawater electrical and magentic signatures can be obtained. In this paper several examples will be presented including oil platform, ballast tank and a marine vessel for which the ICCP has been optimized in order to minimize the underwater electrical potential and corrosion related magnetic signature.

Abstract:
Abstract The idea of legacy systems which conserve some valuable parts of an outdated software system is applied to conserving the Knowledge Base (KB) engineered into an existing Knowledge-Based System (KBS) on corrosion. Preliminary work is reported on incorporating this KB into a framework which combines hypermedia and KBS technologies. The user interface to this new framework is similar to browsing on the World Wide Web. As well as browsing, the framework allows users to interrogate the corrosion KB, either to obtain advice or to generate computed links to other parts of the hypermedia. It also allows new documents, such as case studies, to be linked into the hypermedia semi-automatically. This paper outlines the main features of the end-product, some of the design details and the current progress.

Abstract:
Abstract The need for a tool that could help corrosion engineers in the time consuming task of evaluating the corrosivity of the fluids involved in the gas and oil fields, and to select the best cost-performing materials and corrosion control methods was and still is strongly felt in the oil companies. Information technology offers plenty of possibilities: the development of an expert system was judged the best way to construct such a tool because the nature of the work performed by corrosion engineers is based mainly on experience and can be simulated in an optimal manner by this type of software. The characteristics of the expert system are described. The architecture and the multidisciplinary approach used to deal with the multifaceted problem of selecting the best option for the corrosion control are discussed. The expert system evaluates, in a first module, the corrosivity of the produced fluids with respect to carbon steel; in a second module, the effect of the well design is considered (effect of flow characteristics, water wetting, etc.). In the third module, the selection of the applicable materials, each one associated to a performance index, is carried out. The fourth module evaluates the possible corrosion control methods and in three sub-modules the impact of completion fluid, stimulation acid mixtures, and galvanic coupling is estimated. A first approach to the risk analysis of the possible selections is performed in the fifth module. A cost comparison between the different solutions is performed, based on the life cycle cost method, to be able to select the optimal material/corrosion control method for well completion both from technical and economic point of view. The feedback from the continuous use of the system for a period of three years is reported and the programs for future developments are described.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Critical micelle concentration (CMC) is a known indicator for surfactants such as corrosion inhibitors ability to partition from two phase systems such as oil and water. Most corrosion inhibitors are surface active and at critical micelle concentration, the chemical is partitioned to water, physadsorb on metallic surfaces and form a physical barrier between steel and water. This protective barrier thus prevents corrosion from taking place on the metal surface When the applied chemical concentration is equal or higher than the CMC, the chemical is available in aqueous phase, thus preventing corrosion. Therefore, it was suggested that CMC can be used as an indicator of optimal chemical dose for corrosion control1. The lower the CMC of a corrosion inhibitor product, the better is this chemical for corrosion control as the availability of the chemical in the aqueous phase increase and therefore, can achieve corrosion control with less amount of chemical. In this work, this physical property (CMC) was used as an indicator to differentiate corrosion inhibitor performance. The corrosion inhibitor formulations were built out by using combinatorial chemical methods and the arrays of chemical formulations were screened by utilizing high throughput robotics2-4, using CMC as the selection guide. To validate the concept, several known corrosion inhibitor formulas were selected to optimize their efficacy. Each formula contained several active ingredients and a solvent package. These raw materials were blended in random but in a control, manner using combinatorial methodologies. Instead of rapidly blending a large number of formulations using robotics, the design of control (DOE) methods were utilized to constrain the number of blends. Once the formulations were generated by DOE method, using Design Expert software that can effectively explore a desired space. The development of an equally robust prescreening analysis was also developed. This was done by using the measurements of CMC with a high-throughput screening methodology. After formulation of a vast array of formulation by using Design Expert software, the products were screened for by CMC using automated surface tension workstation. Several formulations with lower CMC than the reference products were selected. The selected corrosion inhibitor formulations were identified and blended in larger scales. The efficacy of these products was tested by classical laboratory testing methods such as rotating cylinder electrode (RCE) and rotating cage autoclave (RCA) to determine their performance as anti-corrosion agents. These tests were performed against the original reference corrosion inhibitor. The testing indicated that several corrosion inhibitor formulations outperform the original blend thus validating the proof of concept.

Abstract:
Background. The explosive growth in the number of original biomedical research publications and subsequent systematic reviews has driven the increase in the number of software tools created to automate many of the processes involved in the conduct of systematic reviews, particularly search strategy design and execution. However, this growth in software tools has not been accompanied by a systematic approach for providing expert review of these tools and their utility in supporting search strategy development. Objectives. Our goal was to provide practical guidance and information about automation tools for literature searching by conducting a descriptive comparative analysis of the free search strategy tools listed on the Systematic Review Toolbox1,2 (SR Toolbox) website. We plan to make our analysis freely available through web-based distribution. Methods. Our search expert panel is composed of five biomedical librarians currently active in the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Effective Health Care Program Evidence-based Practice Centers (EPC). After screening, members of our expert panel dual reviewed included tools based on these criteria with any assessment disagreements resolved via consensus. Further, we categorized each tool by search-process step; tools could be applicable to more than one step. Results. Search strategy tools were identified from the SR Toolbox website. Of the 102 total tools listed on their search software webpage (initial search September 2021 N=78; update search February 2023 N=24 new tools), we determined 21 to be search strategy development tools and eligible for review. Based on our expert review, we found the preponderance of the 21 chosen tools are designed for the initial strategy development steps (i.e., scoping, keyword/phrase, and subject term discovery), though there are tools in most steps, except for strategy logic evaluation. From our review score sheets, we created a table of tools, arranged them by search process step, and rated their performance across our key criteria. Conclusion. We created what we believe is a quick and intuitive guide for expert searchers that organizes the tools by search strategy development phase, evaluates key features, and provides advice on how to use the tool effectively.

Abstract:
One of the main aspects of studying databases in higher education institutions by future IT specialists is database design and software product development. This, in turn, is the most important problem of the developer’s interaction with the customer. To facilitate the process of database design, ER-diagrams are used, which are based on the concepts of “Entity” and “Relationship”. An ER diagram allows you to present a database in the form of visual graphical objects that define a specific subject area. The article considers the available cloud services for the construction of ER-diagrams for learning databases of future IT specialists and their selection the method expert evaluation. For this purpose, the criteria and indicators for the selection of cloud services for the construction of ER-diagrams of databases by future information technology specialists have been determined. As a result, it was found that the cloud services Dbdesigner.net and Lucidchart are the most convenient to learn. It is determined that for a teacher of a higher education institution the use of cloud services is an opportunity to use licensed software in education without additional costs.

DSC-MRI Consensus QIBA Profile. Chair Ona Wu, Mark Shiroishi, and Leland Hu. Radiological Society of North America (RSNA)/Quantitative Imaging Biomarkers Alliance (QIBA), 2020. https://doi.org/10.1148/qiba/20201022.

Abstract:
The goal of a QIBA Profile is to help achieve a useful level of performance for a given biomarker. Profile development is an evolutionary, phased process; this Profile is in the Public Comment Resolution Draft stage. The performance claims represent expert consensus and will be empirically demonstrated at a subsequent stage. Users of this Profile are encouraged to refer to the following site to understand the document’s context: http://qibawiki.rsna.org/index.php/QIBA_Profile_Stages. The Claim (Section 2) describes the biomarker performance. The Activities (Section 3) contribute to generating the biomarker. Requirements are placed on the Actors that participate in those activities as necessary to achieve the Claim. Assessment Procedures (Section 4) for evaluating specific requirements are defined as needed. Conformance (Section 5) regroups Section 3 requirements by Actor to conveniently check Conformance. This QIBA Profile, Dynamic-Susceptibility-Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DSC-MRI), addresses the measurement of an imaging biomarker for relative Cerebral Blood Volume (rCBV) for the evaluation of brain tumor progression or response to therapy. We note here, that this profile does not claim to be measuring quantitative rCBV due to lack of existing supporting literature; it does provide claims for a biomarker that is proportional to rCBV, which is the tissue-normalized first-pass area under the contrast-agent concentration curve (AUC-TN). The AUC-TN therefore has merit as a potential biomarker for diseases or treatments that impact rCBV. This profile places requirements on Sites, Acquisition Devices, Contrast Injectors, Contrast Media, Radiologists, Physicists, Technologists, Reconstruction Software, Image Analysis Tools and Image Analysts involved in Site Conformance, Staff Qualification, Product Validation, Pre-delivery, Periodic QA, Protocol Design, Subject Handling, Image Data Acquisition, Image Data Reconstruction, Image QA, Image Distribution, Image Analysis and Image Interpretation. The requirements are focused on achieving known (ideally negligible) bias and avoiding unnecessary variability of the of the AUC-TN measurements. The clinical performance is characterized by a 95% confidence interval for the AUC-TN true change (Y2-Y1) in enhancing tumor tissue (𝑌−𝑌)±1.96× (𝑌×0.31) +(𝑌×0.31) and in normal tissue (𝑌−𝑌)±1.96× (𝑌×0.40) +(𝑌×0.40), where Y1 is the baseline measurement and Y2 is the follow-up measurement. These estimates are based on current literature values but may be updated based on future studies (see Section 2.2 for details). This document is intended to help clinicians basing decisions on this biomarker, imaging staff generating this biomarker, vendor staff developing related products, purchasers of such products and investigators designing trials with imaging endpoints. Note that this document only states requirements to achieve the claim, not “requirements on standard of care.” Conformance to this Profile is secondary to properly caring for the patient. QIBA Profiles addressing other imaging biomarkers using CT, MRI, PET and Ultrasound can be found at qibawiki.rsna.org.

Abstract:
A solar-powered automated transportation network (ATN) connecting the North and South campuses of San José State University with three passenger stations was designed, visualized, and analyzed in terms of its energy usage, carbon offset, and cost. The study’s methodology included the use of tools and software such as ArcGIS, SketchUp, Infraworks, Sketchup, Rhinoceros, and Autodesk 3DS Max. ATN vehicle energy usage was estimated using data from the university’s Park &amp; Ride shuttle bus operation and by modeling with SUMOPy, the advanced simulation suite for the micro-traffic simulator SUMO. The energy study showed that an extensive solar photovoltaic (PV) canopy over the guideway and stations is sufficient for the network to run 24/7 in better-than-zero net-metered conditions—even if ridership were to increase 15% above that predicted from SJSU Park &amp; Ride shuttle data. The resulting energy system has a PV-rated output of 6.2 MW, a battery system capacity of 9.8 MWh, and an estimated cost of $11.4 million USD. The solar ATN also produces 98% lower CO2 and PM2.5 emissions compared to the Park &amp; Ride shuttle bus. A team of experts including urban planners, architects, and engineers designed and visualized the conceptual prototype, including a comprehensive video explaining the need for solar ATN and what a typical rider would experience while utilizing the system. This research demonstrates both benefits and challenges for solar-powered ATN, as well as its functionality within the urban built environment to serve diverse San José neighborhoods.

Abstract:
Objectives. To summarize the evidence regarding diagnosis, prophylactic treatment, symptomatic treatment, and repeat surgery of tethered spinal cord. Data sources. We searched PubMed®, Embase®, CINAHL, Web of Science, SCOPUS, clinicaltrials.gov, ICTRP, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, PROSPERO, ECRI repository, G-I-N, MagicApp, and ClinicalKey from inception to March 2024; reference-mined reviews; and contacted research authors. Review methods. The review followed a detailed protocol and was supported by a Technical Expert Panel. Systematic review software (DistillerSR) was utilized for all screening and data extraction tasks. Citation screening was facilitated by machine learning; two independent reviewers each screened full text citations for eligibility; one literature reviewer extracted data and a methodologist checked for accuracy. Risk of bias assessments focused on key sources of bias for diagnostic and intervention studies. We conducted strength of evidence (SoE) and applicability assessments for key outcomes. The protocol for the review has been registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023461296). Results. Searches identified 6,285 citations; 2,005 were obtained as full text. In total, 103 studies met inclusion criteria, with an additional 355 case series providing additional information. We found the strongest evidence for accuracy of MRI in diagnosing tethered spinal cord. Specifically, studies indicated this modality has medium to high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity (moderate SoE). A small number of existing studies suggested benefits of prophylactic surgery, but it was also associated with complications such as surgical site infection (low SoE). A larger body of evidence evaluated various treatments for symptomatic patients, with the majority focused on surgical detethering. Studies reported improvement of neurological status after surgical detethering (low SoE), but it was also associated with post-operative complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage (moderate SoE). A very small body of evidence exists for revision detethering and spinal column shortening for repeat surgery (low or insufficient SoE for all outcomes). Across diagnosis, prophylactic treatment, symptomatic treatment, and repeat surgery there was insufficient evidence for multiple key outcomes (e.g., over- or undertreatment, clinical impact of diagnostic modalities, ambulation or quality of life outcomes) and thus no evidence statements could be derived. Conclusions. The evidence base for the diagnosis and treatment of tethered spinal cord is limited, with few exceptions (use of MRI or ultrasound for diagnosis, surgical detethering improving neurological status in symptomatic patients, complications associated with open detethering surgery) and would benefit from stronger study designs that include tool evaluations reporting diagnostic performance and treatment studies with concurrent comparator.

Abstract:
Objective. The systematic review assessed evidence on the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents to inform a planned update of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) guidelines. Data sources. We searched PubMed®, Embase®, PsycINFO®, ERIC, clinicaltrials.gov, and prior reviews for primary studies published since 1980. The report includes studies published to June 15, 2023. Review methods. The review followed a detailed protocol and was supported by a Technical Expert Panel. Citation screening was facilitated by machine learning; two independent reviewers screened full text citations for eligibility. We abstracted data using software designed for systematic reviews. Risk of bias assessments focused on key sources of bias for diagnostic and intervention studies. We conducted strength of evidence (SoE) and applicability assessments for key outcomes. The protocol for the review has been registered in PROSPERO (CRD42022312656). Results. Searches identified 23,139 citations, and 7,534 were obtained as full text. We included 550 studies reported in 1,097 publications (231 studies addressed diagnosis, 312 studies addressed treatment, and 10 studies addressed monitoring). Diagnostic studies reported on the diagnostic performance of numerous parental ratings, teacher rating scales, teen/child self-reports, clinician tools, neuropsychological tests, EEG approaches, imaging, and biomarkers. Multiple approaches showed promising diagnostic performance (e.g., using parental rating scales), although estimates of performance varied considerably across studies and the SoE was generally low. Few studies reported estimates for children under the age of 7. Treatment studies evaluated combined pharmacological and behavior approaches, medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration, other pharmacologic treatment, psychological/behavioral approaches, cognitive training, neurofeedback, neurostimulation, physical exercise, nutrition and supplements, integrative medicine, parent support, school interventions, and provider or model-of-care interventions. Medication treatment was associated with improved broadband scale scores and ADHD symptoms (high SoE) as well as function (moderate SoE), but also appetite suppression and adverse events (high SoE). Psychosocial interventions also showed improvement in ADHD symptoms based on moderate SoE. Few studies have evaluated combinations of pharmacological and youth-directed psychosocial interventions, and we did not find combinations that were systematically superior to monotherapy (low SoE). Published monitoring approaches for ADHD were limited and the SoE is insufficient. Conclusion. Many diagnostic tools are available to aid the diagnosis of ADHD, but few monitoring strategies have been studied. Medication therapies remain important treatment options, although with a risk of side effects, as the evidence base for psychosocial therapies strengthens and other nondrug treatment approaches emerge.
