我们比较了 1 型神经纤维瘤病 (NF1) 儿童 (n = 132)、患有 NF1 并合并注意力缺陷多动障碍 (NF1 + ADHD) 的儿童 (n = 60) 和未受影响的对照儿童 (n = 52) 的认知功能、学业能力和学业成绩不佳的预测因素。结果表明，ADHD 的存在会给 NF1 患者的认知功能和学习的某些方面带来负担。注意力不集中和执行功能障碍是 NF1 认知表型的一般特征，并显着损害 NF1 儿童的学业成绩。
We compared cognitive functioning, academic ability, and the predictors of academic underachievement in children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) (n = 132), children with NF1 and comorbid attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (NF1 + ADHD) (n = 60), and unaffected controls (n = 52). Results indicate the presence of ADHD burdens some aspects of cognitive functioning and learning in NF1. Inattention and executive dysfunction are general characteristics of the NF1 cognitive phenotype and significantly undermine academic achievement across children with NF1.
