Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Self-Reported Mental Health, and Weight Loss 10 Years after Metabolic-Bariatric Surgery during Adolescence
ADHD was associated with higher levels of anxiety, depression, and binge eating 10 years after MBS during adolescence. Weight loss was lower for the ADHD group at 2 and 5 years but not at 10 years, potentially due to a high dropout in the ADHD group at 10 years. Preoperative screening for ADHD in adolescents may improve long-term outcomes by early initiation of treatment for ADHD and tailored postoperative follow-up.
