Our latest work Bhathika Perera Laura Korb Ken Courtenay Health Stats Exeter @SamuelJTromans Patterns of comorbidity & psychopharmacology in adults with ID & ADHD: UK national cross-sectional audit tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… published. 1st major study on ID & ADHD! Critical insights shared!

Very interesting findings. Diagnosis of ADHD has increased in ID population, however it is still way too lower than what research has shown. Autism appears to be closer to studies 20-30% of ID. Interesting finding on use of melatonin too.
