Physical and neurophysiological maturation associated with ADHD among previously institutionalized children: a randomized controlled trial.
Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental outcome among children with a history of early institutional care. Prior research on institutionalized children suggested that accelerated physical growth in childhood is a risk factor for ADHD outcomes.
Methods: The current study examined physical and neurophysiological growth trajectories among institutionalized children randomized to foster care treatment (n = 59) or care as usual (n = 54), and never institutionalized children (n = 64) enrolled in the Bucharest Early Intervention Project (NCT00747396, clinicaltrials.gov). Participants completed physical and electroencephalography (EEG) assessments at six time points from infancy through adolescence, as well as structured diagnostic interviews at the 54-month and 12-year time points. A series of multilevel growth models and cross-lagged path models were estimated to examine associations among physical and neurophysiological maturation, treatment group, age of foster care placement, and ADHD diagnostic outcomes.
Results: Twenty-seven percent of the institutionalized children met research criteria for ADHD at one or both time points. Slowed, prolonged growth of height and head circumference were associated with both ADHD and delayed foster care placement. Placement in foster care versus care as usual, but not ADHD, was associated with maturation of the peak alpha frequency. Among children randomized to foster care, average theta-beta ratio was lower among those with ADHD. There was no evidence that rapid physical maturation led to atypical cortical activity.
Conclusions: Delayed, prolonged physical growth and atypical neurophysiology from infancy through adolescence is associated with ADHD among institutionalized children, over and above the protective effects of foster care.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP) is a highly regarded international publication that focuses on the fields of child and adolescent psychology and psychiatry. It is recognized for publishing top-tier, clinically relevant research across various disciplines related to these areas. JCPP has a broad global readership and covers a diverse range of topics, including:
Epidemiology: Studies on the prevalence and distribution of mental health issues in children and adolescents.
Diagnosis: Research on the identification and classification of childhood disorders.
Treatments: Psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacological interventions for child and adolescent mental health.
Behavior and Cognition: Studies on the behavioral and cognitive aspects of childhood disorders.
Neuroscience and Neurobiology: Research on the neural and biological underpinnings of child mental health.
Genetics: Genetic factors contributing to the development of childhood disorders.
JCPP serves as a platform for integrating empirical research, clinical studies, and high-quality reviews from diverse perspectives, theoretical viewpoints, and disciplines. This interdisciplinary approach is a key feature of the journal, as it fosters a comprehensive understanding of child and adolescent mental health.
The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry is published 12 times a year and is affiliated with the Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health (ACAMH), which supports the journal's mission to advance knowledge and practice in the field of child and adolescent mental health.
