Summary

This cross-sectional observational study investigates the clinical and biochemical relationship between Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Benign Joint Hypermobility Syndrome (BJHS) in pediatric patients. The primary objective is to evaluate the prevalence of BJHS in children diagnosed with ADHD and compare serum prolidase levels with those of healthy controls. The study also explores whether the severity of ADHD symptoms correlates with serum prolidase activity. Clinical assessments include the Conners Parent Rating Scale, Beighton Score, and serum prolidase measurement using ELISA. This research aims to provide new insights into the potential connective tissue-neurodevelopmental link and contribute to early screening frameworks for children with ADHD.
