This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the risk of both all-cause and cause-specific mortality among persons with autism spectrum disorder or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and their first-degree relatives. Are persons with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) at a higher risk of dying compared with the general population? In this systematic review and meta-analysis of 27 studies, persons with ASD or ADHD had higher mortality rates than the general population. When causes of death were examined, ASD and ADHD were associated with higher mortality due to unnatural causes (eg, injury, poisoning, and other), and only persons with ASD had an increased risk of mortality from natural causes of death (eg, neurologic, respiratory system, and cancer). Having ASD or ADHD may be associated with higher mortality risks. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are childhood-onset disorders that may persist into adulthood. Several studies have suggested that they may be associated with an increased risk of mortality; however, the results are inconsistent. To assess the risk of mortality among persons with ASD or ADHD and their first-degree relatives. A search of MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and PsycINFO (published from inception to April 1, 2021) was supplemented by searching reference lists of the retrieved articles. Cohort and case-control studies that reported mortality rate ratios (RRs) in persons with ASD or ADHD and/or their first-degree relatives compared with the general population or those without ASD/ADHD were included. Screening, data extraction, and quality assessment were performed by at least 2 researchers independently. A random-effects model was used to meta-analyze individual studies and assessed heterogeneity (I2). All-cause mortality in association with ASD or ADHD. Secondary outcome was cause-specific mortality. Twenty-seven studies were included, with a total of 642 260 individuals. All-cause mortality was found to be higher for persons with ASD (154 238 participants; 12 studies; RR, 2.37; 95% CI, 1.97-2.85; I2, 89%; moderate confidence) and persons with ADHD (396 488 participants; 8 studies; RR, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.13-4.02; I2, 98%; low confidence) than for the general population. Among persons with ASD, deaths from natural causes (4 studies; RR, 3.80; 95% CI, 2.06-7.01; I2, 96%; low confidence) and deaths from unnatural causes were increased (6 studies; RR, 2.50; 95% CI, 1.49-4.18; I2, 95%; low confidence). Among persons with ADHD, deaths from natural causes were not significantly increased (4 studies; RR, 1.62; 95% CI, 0.89-2.96; I2, 88%; low confidence), but deaths from unnatural causes were higher than expected (10 studies; RR, 2.81; 95% CI, 1.73-4.55; I2, 92%; low confidence). This systematic review and meta-analysis found that ASD and ADHD are associated with a significantly increased risk of mortality. Understanding the mechanisms of these associations may lead to targeted strategies to prevent avoidable deaths in high-risk groups. The substantial heterogeneity between studies should be explored further.
