Impact of ASD and ADHD on pediatric asthma exacerbations: a retrospective analysis of the Nationwide Inpatient Sample 2005–2020
In the US children hospitalized for asthma exacerbations, those with both ASD and ADHD, or ASD alone, face significantly greater costs and higher risks of specific complications, particularly epilepsy, pneumonia, and constipation. The findings suggest a compounded impact of these neurodevelopmental conditions on asthma children, emphasizing the need for specialized care to manage these patients effectively and reduce the risks.
