Abstract

Objective To evaluate the association of attentional inhibition function with their attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) behavior scores,so as to provide experimental evidence on the risk of suffering from ADHD in preschool children with purulent meningitis. Methods A total of 53 children aged 3-5 years with purulent meningitis (33 males and 20 females) from Zhengzhou Children′s Hospital and 45 controls (24 males and 21 females) from kindergarten were recruited from September 2017 to May 2018 in present study.Attentional inhibition function was measured by GO/NOGO experiment,while hyperactivity tendency was assessed by the Children′s ADHD Behavior Scale for all subjects.Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the pairwise correlation between attentional inhibition and ADHD behavior scores. Results In the GO trial and the NOGO trial,the reaction time in purulent meningitis group was longer than that in control group[GO:(2 260.6±654.2) ms vs.(1 105.8±499.4) ms,P<0.01;NOGO:(2 220.2±693.6) ms vs.(1 017.3±454.9) ms,P<0.001].The ADHD behavior score in the purulent meningitis group was higher than that in control group[(13.1±4.1) vs.(10.9±4.6),P<0.001].According to the Pearson correlation analysis,the reaction time of NOGO trail was positively related to ADHD behavior score (r=0.320,P=0.03) in the purulent meningitis group. Conclusion Preschool children with purulent meningitis have obvious deficits in attentional inhibition,which may be related to their hyperactivity behavior.
