NEW YORK, Jan. 23 (Xinhua) -- A study of more than 30,000 British adults diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) found that, on average, they were dying earlier than their counterparts in the general population -- around seven years earlier for men, and around nine for women.
The study, which was published on Thursday in The British Journal of Psychiatry, is believed to be the first to use all-cause mortality data to estimate life expectancy in people with ADHD.
