Review
Transition psychiatry: attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder affects 5 % of all children and adolescents and 2-3 % of all adults. It is thus one of the most frequent neurodevelopmental disorders, frequently associated with comorbid disorders and multiple functional impairments. Administrative data indicate that many patients with ADHD are at a great risk for treatment discontinuation during the transition to adulthood despite persistent symptomatology and functional impairment. The article addresses potential consequences for optimizing ADHD treatment during this transition.

Review
Psychiatry's practice in Latin America is unique as it comes from the junction of the indigenous cultures and their conceptualization of mental disorders, the European colonizers who brought with them the early modern psychiatric conceptualizations and, later, the Africans who were forced to migrate to the continent as slaves and introduced elements of the African culture. With this background in mind it is easier to understand why Latin America is a multiethnic and multicultural continent. In order to be able to practice in this particular context, Psychiatry should take into account all the aforementioned elements in the design of its educational programmes. Nevertheless, Latin American countries have a tremendous deficit in mental health providers and, as such, are in dire need to strengthen their residency programmes and their recruitment processes in order to be able to meet the needs of the population. This paper sets out to review the current state of psychiatric education in Latin America and describe in more detail the current training programmes available in the region. It also discusses the perceptions of Latin American psychiatric residents regarding their training programmes and presents possible alternatives for the future of training.

Review
The breathtaking technological progress in the field of mobile computing, smartphones and wearables offers new opportunities for psychiatric research and therapy. Wearables enable not only the objective assessment of psychiatric symptoms in real time and everyday life but using continuous monitoring and analysis of relevant parameters can also define important situations, contexts and timing during which extended assessment strategies and real-life interventions can be implemented. The momentary effect of inner city green space exposure on well-being, motivational behavior feedback and geofencing for the detection of drinking episodes are used as examples to illustrate the core benefits of real-time analyses and feedback from wearables for psychiatric research and therapy.

When we talk about the clinic of delusional symptoms, we are first and foremost affirming that delusions exist. Professionals working in psychiatry know that delusions can be listened to, that they give meaning to suffering and are part of the history of the subject. Taking the time to reflect on this type of symptom allows us to invest in the clinical field specific to psychiatry, and only makes sense if the clinical approach is based on work referring to the patient's individual history. Maintaining and developing these attitudes to care is essential to the survival of psychiatry as a discipline. Focusing on the clinic of delusion is neither a luxury nor a waste of time.
