Abstract:
The prognosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)is poor,and approximately two third patients still have obvious symptoms when they grow up into adults,thus interfering with their social functions including work,study,family and interpersonal relation etc,and even causing the mental disorders and/or antisocial personality disorder.The predictive factors of adult outcome of ADHD include genetic,environmental and clinical factors.This review deals with the adult outcome and its predictive factors,and explores the severes harmfulness against individual,family and society brought by ADHD and its underlying mechanisms so as to facilitate the clinical intervention and research.
