Resumen
Alteraciones en el desarrollo de la atención
y la organización conductual pueden
configurar cuadros clínicos como
el trastorno déficit de atención (TDA) que puede estar
acompañado o no de hiperactividad (TDAH), este último
parece tener una relación directa con otros diagnósticos
de tipo endocrino como la obesidad. El objetivo del estudio
es analizar la relación que existe entre el TDAH y la
obesidad. Es por ello que se realiza una revisión sistemática
de estudios científicos revelando relaciones y diferencias
entre ambos trastornos desde una mirada fisiológica,
cognoscitiva y comportamental. Se concluye que la relación
entre el TDAH y la obesidad se da por factores genéticos,
por variaciones dopaminérgicas, cambios en patrones
de sueño, desajustes emocionales y por alteraciones en la
regulación de la conducta; igualmente influyen factores
sociales relacionados con el cuidado en el embarazo y la
alimentación de las mujeres antes y durante la gestación.
Alterations in the development of attention and behavioral organization can configure clinical diagnoses such as attention deficit disorder (ADD) that may not be accompanied by hyperactivity (ADHD), the latter seems to have a direct relationship with other endocrine diagnoses such as the obesity. The aim of the study is to analyze the relationship between ADHD and obesity. That is why a systematic review of scientific studies is carried out revealing relationships between both disorders from a physiological, cognitive and behavioral perspective. It is concluded that the relationship between ADHD and obesity is given by genetic factors, by dopaminergic variations, changes in sleep patterns, emotional imbalances and by alterations in the regulation of behavior; likewise, social factors related to pregnancy care and the feeding of women before and during pregnancy influence it.
