What does that mean when it comes to neuro-imaging?

I guess this circles back to "define modern populations" because is this before or after neuro-imaging became a widely available technology? What Causes ADHD? (featuring brain scans and sources)
I mean if 90% of the population mouth breathes, develops "poorly", and has symptoms of ADHD then wouldn't you think the occurrence of ADHD diagnosis would reflect that? We aren't diagnosing 90% of the population with ADHD so are medical professionals doing something right? By eliminating 85% of people with symptoms of ADHD who might not actually have it through testing? How Common is ADHD
Personally, my "quacky" sensors are tingling. Anyone can self publish a book on Amazon, in fact here is a delightful fictional novel romanticizing alt-right Nazi-ism that you can purchase on Amazon! Personally, if I don't see a study or peer reviewed journal on the matter, I would call bs...
