Abstract:
Objective To explore the factors affecting methylphenidate (MHP)efficacy in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods One hunadard eleven DSM-Ⅳ defined ADHD patients were enrolled for 6 weeks systemic MHP titration treatmnet. ADHD Rating Scale-Ⅳ Home Version (ADHD-RS-Ⅳ) were applied as index of clinical efficacy, and Continuous Performance Task (CPT) as index of cognition efficacy. Determining potential influential factors was analyzed on MPH efficacy including demographic,baseline clinical symptoms and cognitive factors. Results Sixty-five (59.1%) were defined as responders and 45 (40.9%) as non-reponders to MHP, respectively. CPT which were conducted in 87 patient showed that 35 (40.2%) were defined as responders on commission errors, 31 (35.6%) on omission errors and 10 (11.5%) on reaction time. Logistic analysis revealed two potential influential factors that predicted better clinical efficacy (P<0.05): better parental relationship (OR=3.516, 95% CI: 1.087~11.375) and baseline ADHD-RS-Ⅳ score above 35 points (OR=3.075, 95%CI: 1.131~8.359). Higher IQ score was the potential influential factor that predicted better commission errors efficacy (OR=1.085, 95%CI: 1.013~1.162) and omission errors efficacy (OR=1.078, 95%CI: 1.008~1.153). Conclusion MHP efficacy may result in better outcomes in children with ADHD who have higher baseline ADHD-RS-Ⅳ score, poorer baseline CPT result, younger onset age, higher IQ and better parental relationship.
