A new study that tracked 708 kids into young adulthood has found that girls who are hyperactive as kids are more likely to develop hints of heart problems later in adulthood. The study, by a team of Finnish researchers led by Liisa Keltikangas-J??rvinen, a psychology researcher at the University of Helsinki, also found that children who were hyperactive, socially isolated and had other problems dealing with people were more likely than other children to develop heart-damaging behaviors such as smoking as they became adults.
The findings from this study appear in the upcoming issue of the journal Psychosomatic Medicine.
Keltikangas-Jarvinen and colleagues analyzed a study of Finnish children whose emotional states were examined at ages 3 to 9 in the early 1980s. Researchers reconnected with the now-adult participants in 2001 and 2002 and used ultrasound to check the thickness of their arteries — thick and clogged arteries contribute to heart disease.
