Functional disturbances developed early in life include balance deficits which are linked to dysfunctions of higher levels of cognitive and motor integration. According to our knowledge, there are only a few studies suggesting that balance deficits are related to behavioral disturbances in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
We tested the extent to which balance deficits were related to ADHD symptoms in 35 medication-naïve boys of school age (8-11 years) and compared the results with a control group of 30 boys of the same age.
ADHD symptoms in medication-naïve boys had specific relationships to disturbances of postural and gait balance.
To our knowledge, this study provides the first evidence in the medical literature for a direct relationship between ADHD symptoms and balance deficits, that cannot be attributed to medication and the presence of any neurological disease.
生命早期出现的功能障碍包括平衡缺陷,这与认知和运动整合高级别功能障碍有关。据我们所知,只有少数研究表明平衡缺陷与注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的行为障碍有关。
我们测试了平衡缺陷与 35 名未用药的学龄期男孩(8-11 岁)的 ADHD 症状之间的关系,并将结果与同年龄的 30 名男孩的对照组进行了比较。
未用药男孩的 ADHD 症状与姿势和步态平衡障碍有特定的关系。
据我们所知,这项研究在医学文献中首次提供了 ADHD 症状与平衡缺陷之间直接关系的证据,这种关系不能归因于药物和任何神经系统疾病的存在。
