Conclusions Authors’ conclusions: The authors concluded that BM <strong>and</strong> MPH separately improved <strong>the</strong> classroom behaviour <strong>of</strong> ADHD boys,<br />
although only MPH had a beneficial effect on <strong>the</strong> children’s academic performance. Fur<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong> combination <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> two treatments<br />
was more effective than BM alone but yielded limited improvement beyond that afforded by MPH alone<br />
