Impaired glymphatic system function and its association with speech and language delay in children with ADHD: a prospective study
Glymphatic system function may be impaired in ADHD patients. This study is the first to demonstrate that speech and language delay in ADHD patients may be associated with impaired glymphatic system function. Early intervention may be linked to better language trajectories in ADHD, providing a rationale for longitudinal trials to test causality.
