Every child is an angel, they are lively and innocent. But do you have any children around you who jump up and down non-stop all the time, and at school they are also the "bear children" who give the teacher the most headaches, and they always can't concentrate... Parents may not know, in fact, they are just quietly "sick", they have not become "bear children"!
The causes of ADHD are broadly divided into five areas:
1. Genetic factors: about 40% of the parents of children with ADHD, their compatriots and other relatives also suffer from this disease in their childhood, the incidence of hyperactivity symptoms in single-egg twins is significantly higher than that of double-egg twins, and the prevalence of ADHD compatriots is higher than that of semi-siblings (half-siblings, half-siblings), and higher than that of ordinary children. The above points all suggest that genetic factors are closely related to ADHD, which is also the cause of ADHD.
2. Organic damage to brain tissue: about 85% of children with ADHD are caused by prefrontal or caudal nucleus dysfunction. Including maternal pregnancy diseases: such as hypertension, nephritis, anemia, threatened miscarriage, colds, etc.; abnormal delivery process: such as preterm birth, forceps, caesarean section, asphyxia, intracranial hemorrhage, etc.; within 1 to 2 years of birth, there are infections and traumas of the central nervous system. Children with the above conditions have a higher chance of developing ADHD, which is also one of the causes of ADHD that may cause it.
3. Biological factors: After a large number of studies, the renewal of central monoamine receptors in children with ADHD is slow. The latest medical research at Harvard University in the United States has found that the prefrontal lobe image map of children with ADHD is darker than that of normal children, that is, due to the defect of the prefrontal lobe suppression system that regulates attention and performs the instruction function of the central nervous system of the brain, which leads to ADHD in children.
4. Environmental factors: The causes of ADHD in children are also social, family, and psychological factors. Poor social environment, broken families, poor parents, unexpected mental stimulation, etc. can easily lead to children's lack of concentration and hyperactivity.
5, vitamin and trace element deficiency: studies have found that vitamin deficiency, metabolic disorders caused by certain food additives or pigments and children's hyperactivity behavior also have a certain relationship. (Lead, mercury, cadmium) poisoning is a popular theory, but not all children in the same condition have hyperactivity, so the cause of ADHD in children needs to be further studied.
ADHD is a common pediatric disease, children with ADHD are miserable, and the appearance of ADHD causes great harm to their lives. If parents do not pay enough attention, the child's condition will become more and more serious, the situation will become worse and worse, and even affect the child's life after adulthood, and it is likely to take the child to the road of crime. However, as long as early identification, diagnosis and intervention treatment, children can still grow up healthy and happy.
