TL;DR
Comparison with other studies demonstrated the importance of DSM system and severity scales in reporting comorbidity rates and the need to examine for mania symptoms in children with ADHD and/or oppositional defiant disorder/conduct disorder and to develop scales to differentiate preschool mania from ADHD.
Abstract
Onsets of ADHD before mania and of oppositional defiant disorder/conduct disorder after mania have clinical and research implications. These include the need to examine for mania symptoms in children with ADHD and/or oppositional defiant disorder/conduct disorder and to develop scales to differentiate preschool mania from ADHD. Comparison with other studies demonstrated the importance of DSM system and severity scales in reporting comorbidity rates.

The relatively poor outcomes of these subjects may be related to their phenotypic resemblance to severely ill adults with bipolar disorder who have mixed mania, continuous rapid cycling, psychosis, and treatment-resistant psychopathology.

Clinical similarities between the child- and adolescent-onset cases provide evidence for the clinical validity of childhood-ONSet mania, suggesting that in some cases, ADHD may signal a very early onset of bipolar disorder.

The overall indications are that comorbid CD may identify a subtype of very early onset BP disorder, confusing its clinical presentation and possibly accounting for some of the documented failure to detect BP disorder.
