<br/><br/> Background:  The use of Transcranial Direct Current stimulation (tDCS) for cognition improvement in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is new, and thus the scientific evidence for its effectiveness needs to be evaluated through a systematic review. Objective: To provide updated evidence-based guidance for tDCS effects on cognition in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Data synthesis: Seven studies included 147 participants in total. Best evidence synthesis was applied to summarize the outcomes, which were memory performance and interference control as a primary outcome Conclusion: the available data demonstrated the efficacy of tDCS as a new modality on cognition in children with attension deficit hyperactivity disorder has an immediate and short term effect on improving cognition . Further studies are still needed, especially those involving both neurophysiological and functional evaluations and also more researches to cover further domain on attension deficit hyperactivity disorder
