Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 α (HIF-1 α) in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD),and its relationship with respiratory function.Methods Sixty children with ADHD confirmed by DSM-IV were admitted as ADHD group.60 healthy children were selected as the normal control group.The serum level of HIF-1α was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Respiratory rate and respiratory amplitude were measured by biofeedback instrument.The PEF was measured by peak speed meter.The differences of HIF-1 α level and respiratory function between different ADHD groups and control group were analyzed.The influence of age and sex on HIF-1 α level and respiratory function was analyzed.Results The serum levels of HIF-1 α in ADHD group and healthy control group were (43.22-± 11.68) ng/L and (21.48 ± 12.70)ng/L respectively,the respiration rates were (17.47 ±-2.82)/min and (15.28 ± 2.35)/min respectively.The HIF-1 α and respiration rate of ADHD group were higher than healthy control group (t =9.003,4.363,all P < 0.05).The respiratory amplitude in ADHD group and healthy control group were (2.36 ± 1.18) cm and (3.03 ± 1.05)cm respectively,the PEF in the two groups were (191.42 ± 30.06) L/min and (206.62 ± 33.35) L/min respectively.The respiratory amplitude and PEF of ADHD group were lower than healthy control group (t =4.007,8.534,all P <0.05).There were no significant differences in HIF-1α level,respiratory rate,respiratory amplitude and PEF between boys and girls with ADHD (P > 0.05).There were no significant differences in HIF-1 α level,respiratory rate,respiration amplitude and PEF between different age in ADHD children (P > 0.05).There was a negative correlation between HIF-1 α and PEF in children with ADHD (r =0.422,P < 0.05).Conclusion HIF-1 α and lung function are correlated with ADHD,ADHD children have small lung capacity,which may result in the hypoxia of the brain and the increase of HIF-1 α expression.
