Prevalence of Parent-Reported ADHD Diagnosis and Associated Treatment Among U.S. Children and Adolescents, 2016 (2018, positive): “There is an increasing acknowledgment of ADHD as a chronic condition with symptoms and impairment that can persist into adolescence and adulthood for many individuals who were diagnosed during childhood (Agnew-Blais et al., 2016; Faraone, Biederman, & Mick, 2006; Holbrook et al., 2016).”
The epidemiology and global burden of autism spectrum disorders (2014, background): “Unlike disorders such as ADHD, which demonstrate substantial remission from adolescence onwards (Faraone et al. 2006), there is limited clinical or epidemiological evidence of remission in ASDs.”
Meta-analysis of structural imaging findings in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. (2007, background): “It is estimated that ADHD affects approximately 8% to 12% f school-aged (6–12 years) children (Faraone et al 2003) and 5% f adults (Faraone and Biederman 2005; Faraone et al 2006; essler et al 2006).”
The World Federation of ADHD International Consensus Statement: 208 Evidence-based Conclusions about the Disorder. (2021, positive): “794 17 In adolescence and young adulthood, many individuals with a history of childhood ADHD continue to be impaired by the disorder, although they often show reduced hyperactivity and impulsivity while retaining symptoms of inattention (Faraone et al., 2006).”
Young adult outcome of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder: a controlled 10-year follow-up study (2006, background): “However, considering the very high overlap between the two definitions (93% of DSM-III-R cases received a DSM-IV diagnosis ; Biederman et al. 1997), any effect should be minimal.”
Adult ADHD and comorbid disorders: clinical implications of a dimensional approach (2017, background): “ADHD has an estimated childhood prevalence of 4% to 7% [9] with increasing evidence pointing to its continuation into adulthood for between 15% and 65% of individuals [10].”
The descriptive epidemiology of DSM-IV Adult ADHD in the World Health Organization World Mental Health Surveys (2016, background): “…prevalence is low based on evidence of low adult persistence in studies that followed patients who were treated for ADHD as children into adulthood (Faraone et al. 2006; Hill and Schoener 1996), but there are a number of obvious methodological flaws with such studies (Mannuzza et al. 2003;…”
A systematic review and analysis of long-term outcomes in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder: effects of treatment and non-treatment (2012, methodology): “According to one meta-analysis, ADHD persists in about 65% of adults diagnosed as children if ADHD in partial remission is included [7], and in about 50% of * Correspondence: phodgkins@shire.”
European consensus statement on diagnosis and treatment of adult ADHD: The European Network Adult ADHD (2010, methodology): “In the meta-analysis of these data from Faraone and colleagues it was concluded that about 15% retain the full diagnosis by age 25 years, with a further 50% in partial remission [12], indicating that around two-thirds of children with ADHD continue to have impairing levels of ADHD symptoms as adults”
