Association between neighborhood deprivation and type 2 diabetes risk among ADHD patients: a nationwide population-based cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Both attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and neighborhood deprivation have been previously associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the potential association between neighborhood deprivation and T2D in ADHD patients remains underexplored.
