Association between immigrant background and ADHD: a nationwide population-based case–control study / Venla LEHTI in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 57-8 (August 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 57-8 (August 2016) . - p.967-975 Titre : Association between immigrant background and ADHD: a nationwide population-based case–control study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Venla LEHTI, Auteur ; Roshan CHUDAL, Auteur ; Auli SUOMINEN, Auteur ; Mika GISSLER, Auteur ; Andre SOURANDER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.967-975 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder  epidemiology  immigration  parental  risk factor Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Information about psychiatric disorders among those with immigrant parents is important for early detection and service development. The aim of this study is to examine the association between parental immigration and the diagnosis of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in offspring in Finland. Methods This matched case–control study was based on a national birth cohort. The sample included all singletons who were born in Finland in 1991–2005 and diagnosed with ADHD by the year 2011 (n = 10,409) and their matched controls (n = 39,124). Nationwide registers were used to identify participants and to gather information on the parents' country of birth and native language. Conditional logistic regression analyses were conducted using maternal and paternal migration status and region of birth as well as time since maternal migration as exposure factors. Results The likelihood of being diagnosed with ADHD was significantly increased among children of two immigrant parents [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 4.7, 95% CI 3.4–6.6] and children of an immigrant father (aOR 1.9, 95% CI 1.6–2.2). The likelihood of receiving an ADHD diagnosis was equal among children whose mother was a recent immigrant when she gave birth and those whose mother had stayed in Finland at least for a year before birth. The association between parental migration and ADHD diagnosis was strongest among fathers born in sub-Saharan Africa or Latin America and among mothers born in sub-Saharan Africa or North Africa and Middle East. Children, whose parents were born in countries with low Human Development Index (HDI), were more often diagnosed with ADHD. Conclusions The increased likelihood of ADHD diagnosis among children of immigrants indicates increased exposure to environmental risk factors, differences in the use of health services, or challenges in diagnosing immigrants' children.

Parental Age and Risk of Autism Spectrum Disorders in a Finnish National Birth Cohort / Katja M. LAMPI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-11 (November 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 43-11 (November 2013) . - p.2526-2535 Titre : Parental Age and Risk of Autism Spectrum Disorders in a Finnish National Birth Cohort Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Katja M. LAMPI, Auteur ; Susanna HINKKA-YLI-SALOMAKI, Auteur ; Venla LEHTI, Auteur ; Hans HELENIUS, Auteur ; Mika GISSLER, Auteur ; Alan S. BROWN, Auteur ; Andre SOURANDER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2526-2535 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Epidemiology  Autism spectrum disorders  Parental age Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Aim of the study was to examine the associations between parental age and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Data were based on the FIPS-A (Finnish Prenatal Study of Autism and Autism Spectrum Disorders), a case-control study with a total of 4,713 cases with childhood autism (n = 1,132), Asperger’s syndrome (n = 1,785) or other pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) (n = 1,796), which were ascertained from the Finnish Hospital Discharge Register. Controls were selected from the Finnish Medical Birth Register. Conditional logistic regression models were used for statistical analyses. Advanced paternal age (35–49 years) was associated with childhood autism in offspring, whereas advanced maternal age was associated with both Asperger’s syndrome and PDD in offspring (35 years or more and 40 years or more, respectively). Teenage motherhood (19 years or less) was associated with PDD in offspring. The main finding was that maternal and paternal ages were differentially associated with ASD subtypes. In addition to advanced parental age, teenage pregnancy seems to incur a risk for PDD in offspring.
