目的:注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)与“不健康”食物消费有关,但是这方面的研究还不够。这项研究的目的是调查ADHD/相关症状与加工肉制品和零食消费之间的关系。
方法:这项研究是对390名6至17岁的169名ADHD儿童进行的(38名女孩,131个男孩)和221个健康对照(93个女孩,128个男孩)。食物消耗通过改良的食物频率问卷进行评估,包括18种含有加工肉制品和零食的食品。ADHD症状通过教师和家长TurgayDSM-IV为基础的儿童和青少年破坏性行为障碍筛查和评定量表(T-DSM-IV量表)和Conners\'评定量表(CPRS,CTRS)。
结果:患有多动症的儿童食用更多加工肉制品,牛奶甜点,和巧克力甜食比对照组(p<0.05)。观察到ADHD症状评分与所有零食的消费量之间呈正相关。巧克力糖果的消费量,sujuk的消费频率,巧克力,果冻豆,糖果,蛋糕,和巧克力涂抹(p<0.05)。
结论:患有ADHD的儿童比健康的同龄人摄入更多富含饱和脂肪和糖的食物。患有ADHD的儿童的加工食物消耗可能与ADHD症状有关。
OBJECTIVE: Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been linked to \"unhealthy\" food consumption, but the studies in this area are insufficient. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between ADHD/related symptoms and processed meat products and snack consumption.
METHODS: This study was conducted on 390 children aged between 6 and 17 with 169 ADHD (38 Girls, 131 Boys) and 221 healthy controls (93 Girls, 128 Boys). Food consumption was evaluated by a modified food frequency questionnaire, including 18 food containing processed meat products and snacks. ADHD symptoms were evaluated by the teacher and parent Turgay DSM-IV-Based Child and Adolescent Disruptive Behavioral Disorders Screening and Rating Scale (T-DSM-IV-Scale) and Conners\' Rating Scale (CPRS, CTRS).
RESULTS: Children with ADHD consumed more processed meat products, milk-based desserts, and
chocolate-sweets than controls (p<0.05). A positive correlation was observed between the ADHD symptom scores and the consumption amount of all snacks, the amount of
chocolate-sweets consumption, the frequency of consumption of sujuk,
chocolate, jelly beans, sweets, cakes, and
chocolate spread (p<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: Children with ADHD consume more foods rich in saturated fat and sugar than their healthy peers. Processed food consumption of children with ADHD may be associated with ADHD symptoms.
