Is There a Relation between Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and ADHD and Severity of ADHD in Children and Adolescents? A Case-Control Study
Öz
Our aim in this study was to
investigate the relation between type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) and attention
deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and severity of ADHD in children and
adolescents. Cases (n:80) and healthy children (n:80) aged 6-18 and
followed-up with Type 1 DM were included in the study. Psychiatric evaluation
in the light of DSM-5 (The Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition diagnostic criteria), an information form, the ADHD section of the Schedule for
Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children (6-18)
(K-SADS-PL-T), the DuPaul ADHD Rating Scale, the Conners Teaching Rating
Scale (CTRS), and the Conners Parental Rating Scale (CPRS) was applied to the
participants. The two groups were compared in terms of ADHD and ADHD severity. Sixteen
of the cases with type 1 DM, and 5 of the control group were diagnosed with
ADHD, the rate of ADHD being higher in the case group (chi-square p<0.05). A
statistically significant difference was determined between the ADHD scale
scores. Mean HbA1c in cases diagnosed with ADHD in the case group was higher
than in undiagnosed cases (p=0.020). All scale parameters, apart from HbA1c and
the attention part of the CTRS, were higher in cases diagnosed with ADHD in the
case group than in cases not diagnosed with ADHD(p=0.020). Duration of exposure
to diabetes, and numbers of hospitalizations and ketoacidosis attacks were
higher in cases with ADHD in the case group than in those without ADHD (p<0.05).
There was a significant difference in terms of ADHD between the control and
case groups in our study, and there is a probable association between ADHD and
type 1 DM. Further, more detailed studies are needed to provide a clear
explanation of that relation.
