Study Links ADHD to Autism, Tourette's

Tuesday April 24th - 7:12pm

A new study has uncovered an apparent link between ADHD, autism, and Tourette's Syndrome. Conducted by researchers at the University of Aarhus in Denmark, the study tracked the health of nearly 670,000 Danish children born between 1990 and 1999. It found a significant increase in the incidence of the three disorders, but no significant rise in the incidence of obsessive-compulsive disorder. The study was published last February in Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine.
