Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the disease subtype affects the presence of chronic pain and pain perception threshold in pediatric patients followed up with the diagnosis of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, and to evaluate the factors that may be related to pain perception threshold in disease subtypes.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Predominantly Inattentive

Patients diagnosed with inattentive subtype of attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity according to DSM-5 diagnostic criteria.

Pain perception threshold

Intervention Type OTHER

The patients' pressure pain threshold will be evaluated with a manual pressure algometer (Baseline Dolorimtre®).The patients' pain perception thresholds will be measured bilaterally in the midfrontal region, the midpoint of the trapezius muscle, the lateral epicondyle, the midpoint of the web between the 1st and 2nd fingers, the greater trochanter, and the medial crease of the knee.

Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive

Patients diagnosed with hyperactive-impulsive subtype of attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity according to DSM-5 diagnostic criteria.

Pain perception threshold

Intervention Type OTHER

The patients' pressure pain threshold will be evaluated with a manual pressure algometer (Baseline Dolorimtre®).The patients' pain perception thresholds will be measured bilaterally in the midfrontal region, the midpoint of the trapezius muscle, the lateral epicondyle, the midpoint of the web between the 1st and 2nd fingers, the greater trochanter, and the medial crease of the knee.

Inattentive and Hyperactive-Impulsive Combination

Patients diagnosed with mix subtype of attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity according to DSM-5 diagnostic criteria.

Pain perception threshold

Intervention Type OTHER

The patients' pressure pain threshold will be evaluated with a manual pressure algometer (Baseline Dolorimtre®).The patients' pain perception thresholds will be measured bilaterally in the midfrontal region, the midpoint of the trapezius muscle, the lateral epicondyle, the midpoint of the web between the 1st and 2nd fingers, the greater trochanter, and the medial crease of the knee.
