This emerges from a study under- taken by psychiatrists Chris Role, Nigel Camilleri and Rachel Taylor East and health statistician Nev- ille Calleja, published in the Malta Medical School Gazette. ADHD is a common disorder associated with hyperactivity, im- pulsivity and reduced attention. If left untreated it can lead to lower educational attainment, increased risk of accident-prone behaviour, substance misuse and anti-social behaviour. The study is based on a sample of all 709 children under the age of 18 attending the child psychiatry gov- ernmental clinics up until February 2018, who were diagnosed with se- vere ADHD by a psychiatrist and were receiving pharmacological treatment. These accounted for 0.84% of all Maltese children, with percentage values ranging from 0.57% in the northern district (which includes Naxxar, Mosta, St Paul's Bay, Mgarr and Mellieha) to 1.12% in the north harbour district (which includes Qormi, Birkirkara, St Julian's and Sliema). The second highest rate of ADHD (0.9%) was registered in the south harbour district (which includes Cottonera, Valletta, Paola and Zabbar). One limitation of the study is that it does not take into account chil- dren who seek private treatment. The authors point out that it is possible that more affluent fami- lies, particularly those residing in the northern regions of Malta, pre- fer to attend private clinics rather than make use of the governmental clinics. The study, limited to those at- tending government clinics, shows that ADHD rates are higher in dis- tricts that are associated with low socio-economic status, that is pri- marily the northern and southern harbour areas. "Both northern and southern harbour areas are associ- ated with high population numbers and density as well as lower levels of education compared to the other districts of Malta," the authors said. The northern harbour region was also associated with higher rates of smoking in those aged 18 and over. The two harbour districts "also demonstrate higher numbers of single-mother families as well as a larger number of individuals economically considered at risk of poverty". But surprisingly, relatively high ADHD rates were also reported in the Western district (which in- cludes affluent localities like Li- ja, Zebbug and Attard). In fact, this region registers a higher rate than both the south-eastern re- gion which includes Birzebbugia and Zurrieq, and the Gozo region. "People in this district might be more aware of ADHD symptoms and would therefore more readily seek professional advice," the au- thors surmise. While noting a lower prevalence of ADHD in the more affluent northern regions, the authors also point out that localities with high- er educational levels are also more likely to be aware of the disease, and more likely to seek profession- al help. In fact, the authors acknowledge that their study may be hampered by a "referral bias, with potential cases being missed, either due to lack of awareness about ADHD both by professionals, as well as parents." The study also does not take into account less severe cases of ADHD managed by using other techniques such as behavioural therapy. The study recommends that more resources should be allocated to districts that are associated with higher rates of ADHD. Higher rates of ADHD inside 'poorer, denser' harbour areas Researchers link higher rate to social and economic factors including higher population density, smaller homes, poverty and higher smoking rates % of children aged 0-18 diagnosed for ADHD North Harbour 1.2% South Harbour 0.9% Western region 0.8% Gozo 0.7% South Eastern 0.7% Northern 0.6% ADHD rates are higher in districts associated with low socio-economic status, primarily northern and southern harbour areas
