Abstract:
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder in children, which can be characterized by hyperactivity and(or)impulsivity, inattention, or a combination.The etiology and pathophysiological mechanism of ADHD have not been clarified yet.More and more studies have shown ADHD has intestinal flora disorder, which may affect the occurrence and development of ADHD through microbiome-gut-brain axis (MGBA). Treatment strategies targeting gut microbiota, including probiotics and dietary therapies, are considered to be a novel and effective method for the prevention or treatment of ADHD.This article reviews the changes of intestinal flora and the progress of diet and probiotics in ADHD children, in order to provide new ideas for treatment of ADHD children.
