Eating behavior and sleep habit problems and their correlation with symptoms in children with ADHD comorbid with overweight or obesity.
Background: Previous studies have reported eating and sleep issues in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but few have focused on those comorbid with overweight/obesity. This study aimed to investigate eating behavior and sleep habit problems in children with ADHD and comorbid overweight/obesity, and their relationship with ADHD core symptoms in such children.
Methods: The study included 124 children with ADHD and overweight/obesity and 145 children with ADHD and normal weight. The Children's Eating Behavior Questionnaire, Children's Sleep Habit Questionnaire, and Vanderbilt ADHD Diagnostic Parent Rating Scale were used to assess eating behavior problems, sleep habit problems, and core ADHD symptoms, respectively.
Results: Compared to the normal-weight children with ADHD, those with overweight/obesity scored higher in food responsiveness, enjoyment of food, night waking, sleep-disordered breathing, and daytime sleepiness, while lower in satiety responsiveness, slowness in eating, and emotional undereating. Lower scores of satiety responsiveness and slowness in eating were associated with the presence of overweight or obesity among children with ADHD. In the ADHD overweight/obesity group, shorter sleep duration was correlated with higher body mass index (BMI), and higher food responsiveness was associated with more severe attention deficit symptoms.
Conclusions: Children with ADHD and overweight/obesity reported more eating and sleep problems than those with normal weight. Lower satiety response and faster eating rate may be potential risk factors for overweight/obesity in children with ADHD. Among those with comorbid overweight/obesity, shorter sleep duration associates with higher BMI, and greater food responsiveness relates to more severe attention deficit symptoms. These findings suggest eating and sleep behaviors should be considered in ADHD management, with further research needed on targeted interventions.
期刊介绍：
Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health, the official journal of the International Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Allied Professions, is an open access, online journal that provides an international platform for rapid and comprehensive scientific communication on child and adolescent mental health across different cultural backgrounds. CAPMH serves as a scientifically rigorous and broadly open forum for both interdisciplinary and cross-cultural exchange of research information, involving psychiatrists, paediatricians, psychologists, neuroscientists, and allied disciplines. The journal focusses on improving the knowledge base for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of mental health conditions in children and adolescents, and aims to integrate basic science, clinical research and the practical implementation of research findings. In addition, aspects which are still underrepresented in the traditional journals such as neurobiology and neuropsychology of psychiatric disorders in childhood and adolescence are considered.
