RESUMO
Introduction: Based on the large amount of patients that seek alternative treatment for clinical complaints compatible with ADHD diagnosis and above all by the high percentage of non adaptation or risk that officially proposed drugs may bring, we developed a laboratorial clinical investigative profile that favors a safe homeopathic treatment.Material: 52 cases with urinary zinc analysis, with ADHD diagnosis.Method: using the diagnosis confirmation questionnaire (SNAP-IV by UFRJ) and Zinc analysis by HPLC method (high performance liquid chromatography) which normal values range from 246 and 846 nmol/liter.Results: in a 52 patients (table 1) sampling with a suggestive ADHD diagnosis, we obtained a quantitative alteration in 31 cases showing high urinary Zinc levels, which allowed therapeutic approach that lead to better clinical result followed by subsequent reduction of urinary Zinc levels, in posterior analysis in eight (8) of these patients.(AU)

The objective of this study, stated as Previous Notation, is to demonstrate that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Pathology presents a differentiated condition in carriers where a significant percentage, close to 60%, present a higher level of zinc elimination by kidneys. In this study, a direct relation of Zinc Mettalicum pathogenetic symptoms, this disturbance and the elimination of this element which participates in neurotransmission process were identified, and the relation with elements from regular diet, which can act as zinc chelating agents would be involved in the evolution of this disturbance, justifying the issue of individual susceptibility, essential in homeopathic investigation. Keywords: Attention; Impulsivity; Agitation; Zincum Mettalicum; Neurotransmission.(AU)

This study is based on clinical and laboratory observation of the therapeutic capacity of homeopathy when applied to patients with diagnosis of Miopathy and related syndromes. Utilizing notions on biochemistry, morphology and heredity to stipulate an explicated therapy of homeopathy.(AU)
