Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and substance-use disorders often co-occur.
Aim of this study was to look at the family loading of ADHD (in adults and children) in patients with alcohol-dependence syndrome (ADS) along with the estimation of morbidity risk (MR) for developing ADHD.
Thirty-five male patients with ADS along with their 369 first-degree relatives (FDRs) - both children and adults - were recruited.
ADHD and residual ADD (ADDRT) were significantly more common in the early-onset (EO) ADS group and their FDR. In ADHD children, high MR (27.27%) for developing EO of ADS was noted.
Findings from this study raise an avenue for research in the Indian population about the shared risk between ADS and ADHD.
注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)与物质使用障碍常同时出现。
本研究旨在观察酒精依赖综合征(ADS)患者中ADHD(成人和儿童)的家族负荷情况,并评估患ADHD的发病风险(MR)。
招募了35名患有ADS的男性患者及其369名一级亲属(FDRs),包括儿童和成人。
ADHD和残留型注意力缺陷障碍(ADDRT)在早发型(EO)ADS组及其FDR中明显更为常见。在患有ADHD的儿童中,发现患早发型ADS的高发病风险(27.27%)。
本研究结果为印度人群中ADS和ADHD之间共同风险的研究开辟了一条途径。
