We methodically dissect the case-control study, shedding light on correct interpretation and identifying potential biases. Additionally, we examine a cohort study that independently associates ADHD with an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease.

Understanding the potential risks associated with ADHD medication and Cardiovascular Disease is vital, especially for those taking these types of medications regularly. It's crucial to keep updated with the latest research in this area to make informed decisions about your health or the health of your loved ones.

But the journey doesn't end there! We subject the findings to the rigorous Bradford Hill causation criteria, probing the question of whether there's a causal relationship.
