In general, ICD-10 is more inclusive than DSM-5, so estimates regarding prevalence and lifetime risk tend to be greater using ICD-10. [8] In regard to prevalence, in a given year, about two (2%) percent of adults in the United States [18] and Europe have been suggested to have GAD.
The DSM-IV criteria for diagnosis of ADHD is 3–4 times more likely to diagnose ADHD than is the ICD-10 criteria.
