Pesticide Exposure Linked to Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in Kids

: Children with greater exposure to widely used pesticides are more likely to have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, according to a cross-sectional study in Pediatrics. (Diet is the main source of pesticide exposure among children.) Using NHANES data, researchers assessed ADHD prevalence and urinary concentrations of dialkyl phosphate metabolites (markers of ongoing organophosphate pesticide exposure) in some 1100 children aged 8 to 15 years. Some 10% of the children met diagnostic criteria for ADHD. Overall, as levels of dialkyl phosphate metabolites increased, so did ADHD prevalence. In particular, children with elevations in the most commonly detected metabolite, dimethyl thiophosphate, had twice the odds of having ADHD. The authors say their results "support the hypothesis that organophosphate exposure, at levels common among US children, may contribute to ADHD prevalence." They propose several possible explanations for their findings — for example, organophosphates inhibit acetylcholinesterase, and cholinergic signaling is thought to be disrupted in ADHD.
