I am looking for clinical studies or drug trials related to children (age 0 to 6 preferably) that looked at children with varying GI issues, fistula, GERD symptoms, ulcers, etc that might have looked at child behavior. ADHD just seemed an easy search term, but it doesn't have to be limited to ADHD spectrum diagnoses.
The 1946 UK prospective study has data on infant illness and later developmental problems. Hospitalisation with gastroenteritis predicted later problems.
I'd never heard of that one, thanks. Are you aware of any that considered congenital defects though? Like upper/lower fistula defects?
"Are you aware of any that considered congenital defects though?"
I expect the 1946 study, and subsequent UK Cohort studies, did. But surely fistulas are too rare to have any bearing on population levels of ADHD? Also, I doubt the relevance of any medical cause of ADHD or developmental disorder acting after the first year of life.
