So far, the cause of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is unknown but researchers at Karolinska Institutet are using Swedish registers to investigate potential factors involved. Also how life turned out for persons having received the diagnosis ADHD has been investigated (focusing among other things on criminality, suicide and traffic accidents). In an interview in Vetandets värld 150911 Henrik Larsson, senior researcher in psychiatric epidemiology and active at SIMSAM MEB Family Design at Karolinska Institutet, was interviewed.
