Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Sleep has been referred to as a "window to the central nervous system", owing to its close associations with many other neurophysiological variables. Children are highly vulnerable to sleep disruptions in early childhood, perhaps due to the complexity of the sleep process and children's reliance on caregivers for achieving and maintaining sleep .
The relationship between sleep and ADHD is a complex process and has gained renewed interest since clinicians and researchers observed that sleep-related problems and complaints are relatively common among children with ADHD .Previous studies have shown that About 25-50% of children and adolescents with ADHD have sleep disorders , including nocturnal awakenings, phase delay, increased night time activity and insomnia.
Evaluation of sleep problems in child \&adolescent clinical settings is commonly lacking, often unrecognized and go untreated in clinical setting. So, Untreated sleep disturbances and sleep disorders pose significant adverse daytime consequences and place children at considerable risk for poor health outcomes . Sleep disturbances impair a child's cognitive functioning and contribute to problems with school attendance and performance .

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Children and adolescents with ADHD
Children and Adolescents with ADHD children or Adolescents, male or female, ages 6-17, confirmed diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (inattentive, hyperactive/impulsive, or combined presentations), medically healthy, no comorbid psychiatric diagnosis other than ODD, intelligence within normal limits. Participants will complete 1 night of polysomnography at sleep lab and a neuropsychological and quality of life assessment in the lab.
Polysomnography
Polysomnography Is considered as the gold standard of sleep assessment. It combines a number of measures of body function during sleep, including measurement of brain activity(electroencephalography),eye movements(electrooculography ),muscle activity (electromyography),heart rhythm(electrocardiography).
Healthy control children and adolescent
children or Adolescents, male or female, ages 6-17,medically healthy, no psychiatric diagnoses, intelligence within normal limits. Participants will complete 1 night of polysomnography at sleep lab and a neuropsychological and quality of life assessment in the lab.
