This study is a systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of aerobic exercise interventions for children and adolescents with ADHD, aiming to provide valuable intervention suggestions to enhance the executive function of children and adolescents with ADHD.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Method: &lt;/strong&gt;A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase, Cochrane Library, ProQuest, Scopus, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases, to identify relevant RCTs. We established detailed inclusion and exclusion criteria, followed by literature screening, data extraction, quality assessment, and data analysis conducted by two independent researchers.
