The aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence and risk of ADHD, ASD and ID in individuals with EA. Data were obtained from four longitudinal population-based registries in Sweden and analyzed using Cox proportional hazards regression. Patients with EA born in Sweden in 1973\u20132018 were included together with five controls for each individual with the exposure matched on sex, gestational age at birth, birth year and birth county. Individuals with chromosomal aberrations and syndromes were excluded. In total, 735 individuals with EA and 3675 controls were included. Median age at time of the study was 20\u00a0years (3\u201348). ASD was found in 24 (3.9%), ADHD in 34 (5.5%) and ID in 28 (4.6%) individuals with EA. Patients with EA had a 1.66 times higher risk of ASD (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05\u20132.64) and a 3.62 times higher risk of ID (95% CI, 2.23\u20135.89) compared with controls. The risk of ADHD was not significantly increased. ADHD medication had been prescribed to 88.2% of patients with EA and ADHD and to 84.5% of controls with ADHD. Individuals with EA have a higher risk of ASD and ID than individuals without the exposure. These results are important when establishing follow-up programs for children with EA to allow timely detection and consequentially an earlier treatment and support especially before school start.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/dote\/doac097","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,22]],"date-time":"2022-12-22T06:56:42Z","timestamp":1671692202000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["The
