About the research
Alcohol use disorder can lead to (physical) health issues and troubles in daily life. Good treatment options are very important. At this moment, not everybody benefits from current treatment strategies. This could partially be explained by the high prevalence of other psychiatric disorders within these patients, such as depression or ADHD. When considering treatment options, this co-occurring psychopathology should be taken into account.
It is unknown how alcohol use disorder, depression and ADHD influence the brain. Which is why this study was set up. We will investigate the brains of different groups with alcohol use disorder and with/without depression or ADHD. With our newly collected information, we hope to aid health care providers in providing treatment options suited better to specific sets of complaints.
For whom?
- People with alcohol use disorder as their primary diagnosis
- 3-6 weeks abstinence during study visit
- Between 18-55 years old
- Fluent Dutch speaker
