Overview

Case-control study reveals links between ADHD, eating attitudes, and appetite-regulating hormones, suggesting implications for obesity.

Key Points

  • Adults with ADHD showed worse symptoms, disordered eating attitudes, and reduced executive functioning compared to controls.
  • No significant difference in appetite-regulating hormones between groups was found, although they were linked to executive function tasks.
  • Employing a case-control study design, a battery of neuropsychological tests assessed cognitive functioning related to appetite-regulating hormones.
  • Findings indicate potential mediating factors between ADHD and obesity, highlighting the need for further longitudinal studies.
