Association of premature birth and maternal education level on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children: A meta-analysis
This study found that preterm birth significantly increases the risk of ADHD in children, while a higher maternal education level serves as a protective factor against ADHD. To reduce the incidence of ADHD in children, public health policies should focus on early intervention for preterm infants and improving maternal education levels.
