conclusions the result of this study did not find an independent association between adhd and helmet use. results univariable analysis showed the mean of the age variable was significantly higher in the helmeted group, 26.94 ± 7.72 vs. 23.08 ± 7.7.32, (p < 0.001). the majority of the non-helmeted group was single (p < 0.001). subjects with secondary educational level were more often in the helm...

OBJECTIVE It has been hypothesized that sleep deprivation may manifest in children as behavioral symptoms rather than as tiredness, but only a few studies have investigated this hypothesis. The objective of our study was to evaluate whether short sleep is associated with behavioral symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in 7- to 8-year-old children. METHODS We performed a cross-...

INTRODUCTION Local data on the occurrence of motor problems in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are not available but an understanding of this important issue may enable better planning of medical services. We aimed to determine the prevalence of motor problems in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in a local population. METHODS In this descriptive cr...
