Abstract

ADHD linkage findings have not all been consistently replicated, suggesting that other approaches to linkage analysis in ADHD might be necessary, such as the use of (quantitative) endophenotypes (heritable traits associated with an increased risk for ADHD). Genome-wide linkage analyses were performed in the Dutch subsample of the International Multi-Center ADHD Genetics (IMAGE) study comprising 238 DSM-IV combined-type ADHD probands and their 112 affected and 195 nonaffected siblings. Eight candidate neuropsychological ADHD endophenotypes with heritabilities > 0.2 were used as quantitative traits. In addition, an overall component score of neuropsychological functioning was used. A total of 5407 autosomal single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used to run multipoint regression-based linkage analyses. Two significant genome-wide linkage signals were found, one for Motor Timing on chromosome 2q21.1 (LOD score: 3.944) and one for Digit Span on 13q12.11 (LOD score: 3.959). Ten suggestive linkage signals were found (LOD scores > or = 2) on chromosomes 2p, 2q, 3p, 4q, 8q, 12p, 12q, 14q, and 17q. The suggestive linkage signal for the component score that was found at 2q14.3 (LOD score: 2.878) overlapped with the region significantly linked to Motor Timing. Endophenotype approaches may increase power to detect susceptibility loci in ADHD and possibly in other complex disorders.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
