Research Article: Neurodevelopmental disorders in children seeking obesity treatment- associations with intellectual ability and psychiatric conditions
Abstract:
Background: Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), psychiatric comorbidity and cognitive deficits are commonly seen in children with obesity; however, little is known about the overlap between these conditions. This study aimed to examine the undiagnosed and diagnosed frequency of NDDs and explore its association with psychiatric conditions and general intellectual ability (IQ) in children presenting for obesity treatment.
