Comparisons of health-related factors in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder with and without sleep problems following a weighted blanket sleep intervention
This study showed that children with ADHD without parent-reported clinically relevant sleep problems had fewer health-related issues after a sleep intervention, including self-reported insomnia, tension, and parent-reported ADHD symptoms, compared to children with clinically relevant sleep problems. Longitudinal studies are necessary to fully comprehend the long-term impact of sleep problems and various health-related factors in this cohort.
