Changes in sleep-wake behavior may be more than just an epiphenomenon of ADHD
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 September 2005
Abstract
Sleep disturbances are common for children with attentiondeficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and are of great clinical significance. Brain dopamine plays an important role for both ADHD symptoms and sleep-wake regulation. We therefore suggest that one basic aspect of integrative brain-behavior relationship such as the sleep-wake cycle may certainly be addressed in a dynamic developmental theory of ADHD.
