مطالعه روانی ژنتیکی ارتباط بین نشانه های اختلال پرخوری افراطی و افراد مبتلا به اختلال کمبود توجه/ بیش فعالی

Results indicated a role for the D3 receptor in the manifestation of the hyperactive/impulsive symptoms of ADHD, and that symptoms of ADHD are significantly, but not differentially, elevated in obese adults with and without binge eating. Our findings suggest that ADHD screening in adults seeking treatment for obesity, including those with BE, may be warranted as methods used to treat ADHD may help some to better manage overeating and other factors contributing to weight gain.
