Correlation Between Symptoms of Voiding Dysfunction and Attention Deficit Disorder With Hyperactivity in Children With Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms

Abstract

Boys with higher scores of attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity symptoms tend to have higher Dysfunctional Voiding Symptom Scale scores. Lower urinary tract symptoms were significantly correlated with overall Swanson, Nolan and Pelham-IV scores and significantly correlated with each of the 3 subscales. Evaluation of concomitant symptoms of attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity in children with lower urinary tract symptoms is an important clinical concern.
