摘要：
Objective: This study aimed to compare the therapeutic effects of two different approaches to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): (1) methylphenidate (MPH) treatment combined with balance training, and (2) MPH monotherapy. Methods: The study was based on a randomized, single-blind trial involving 27 ADHD patients. An experimental group received the treatment combining MPH and balance training, while a control group were administered just MPH. After 40 sessions of training at the 6-month mark, patients' improvement as observed in their core symptoms and behavioral problems were compared between the experimental and control group. Results: A total of 27 patients underwent randomization, with 13 assigned to the experimental group and 14 to the control group. After the 6-month trial, the experimental group outperformed the control group in terms of teachers' scores for inattention on the ADHD-RS-IV (19.38 +/- 2.96 vs. 23.21 +/- 3.91, t = -2.854, P = 0.009). The experimental group also showed greater improvement on the items involving behavior (3.14 +/- 1.46 vs. 5.24 +/- 1.04, t = 1.463, P = 0.026) and hyperactivity (1.92 +/- 1.19 vs. 3.86 +/- 2.32, t = -2.697, P = 0.012). Conclusion: In children with ADHD, the experimental group displayed a significant improvement in the symptoms and behavior associated with inattention than did the group whose treatment consisted of only MPH.
