Central Autonomic Regulation Assessed by Pupillary Light Reflex is Impaired in Children With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Abstract: It is assumed that the Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is associated with the central autonomic dysregulation, however, the studies are rare. Analysis of pupillary light reflex represents a non-invasive tool to provide information related to the central autonomic regulation; thus, we aimed to evaluate potential disturbances in the central autonomic integrity using pupillary light reflex examination in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. We have examined 20 children with Attention Deficit Hyperac… Show more

“…Table 2 describes potential objective, physiological diagnostic tests for emotional dysregulation, sensory dysregulation, and attentional dysregulation found in ADHD. The pupil reflex test, correlates pupil constriction and subsequent dilation in response to light to attentional dysregulation (Wainstein et al, 2017) and autonomic dysfunction (Hamrakova et al, 2019(Hamrakova et al, , 2020Bellato et al, 2021) in ADHD. Additionally, if we further explore the relation between emotional and sensory dysregulation and the classical ADHD symptoms, more potential diagnostic practices may arise.…”
