Of the latter group, 43.33 %<br>(n=13) were of combined-presentation. Comorbidity with autism spectrum disorders<br>(ASD) and younger paternal age were found to be associated factors of ADHD symptoms<br>in epilepsy patients, none of the epilepsy-related factors is significantly associated with<br>ADHD symptom.<br>Conclusion : The prevalence of attention-deficit/hyperactivity symptoms in patients at<br>Ramathibodi hospital with epilepsy is higher than the general population.
