Objective:

The purpose of this study is to analyse DESR and its influence on sleep parameters in three different groups of children and adolescents: a group newly diagnosed with ADHD naïve, a group with ADHD under pharmacological treatment and a control group.

Method:

Subjects were a total of 327 children and adolescents. Two groups diagnosed with ADHD: 108 medication-naïve and 80 under pharmacological treatment; and one group with 136 healthy subjects. DESR was defined using anxious/depressed, attention problems and aggressive behaviors (AAA) scales from the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), and sleep through the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children.

Results:

Significant differences were found comparing the three groups (p = .001), with a significantly higher profile on DESR in ADHD subjects, especially those who did not undergo treatment, and a positive correlation between DESR and sleep.

Conclusion:

Children and adolescents with ADHD without treatment present higher DESR than healthy controls and consequently higher sleep problems.

有和没有药物治疗的 ADHD 的情绪自我调节不足和睡眠问题

客观的：

本研究的目的是分析 DESR 及其对三组不同儿童和青少年睡眠参数的影响：一组新诊断患有 ADHD 幼稚、一组接受药物治疗的 ADHD 和对照组。

方法：

受试者共有 327 名儿童和青少年。两组被诊断患有 ADHD：108 人未接受药物治疗，80 人接受药物治疗；一组有136名健康受试者。DESR 使用儿童行为检查表 (CBCL) 中的焦虑/抑郁、注意力问题和攻击性行为 (AAA) 量表来定义，并通过儿童睡眠障碍量表进行睡眠。

结果：

三组之间存在显着差异（p  = .001），ADHD 受试者的 DESR 显着更高，尤其是那些未接受治疗的受试者，并且 DESR 与睡眠之间呈正相关。

结论：

未经治疗的多动症儿童和青少年比健康对照组表现出更高的 DESR，因此睡眠问题也更高。
