Allergic Rhinitis, Hearing Loss Linked to ADHD in Children
Hearing loss and allergic rhinitis are associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), with a stronger association seen in patients with both conditions than either one alone.
A study published online in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found this association, conducted by Bo Ram Yang, Ph.D., and Bong Jik Kim from Chungnam National University in Daejeon, South Korea.
The cross-sectional, population-based study examined the association between hearing loss, allergic rhinitis, and ADHD using pediatric patient samples from the Korea Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service database from 2009 to 2018.
