Inter-relationships among behavioral markers, genes, brain and treatment in dyslexia and dysgraphia
Open accessAbstract
Cross-country, longitudinal twin studies provide strong evidence for both the biological and environmental basis of dyslexia, and the stability of genetic influences on reading and spelling, even when skills improve in response to instruction. Although DNA studies aimed at identifying gene candidates in dyslexia and related phenotypes (behavioral expression of underlying genotypes); and imaging studies of brain differences between individuals with and without dyslexia and the brain's response to instructional treatment are increasing, this review illustrates, with the findings of one multidisciplinary research center, an emerging trend to investigate the inter-relationships among genetic, brain and instructional treatment findings in the same sample, which are interpreted in reference to a working-memory architecture, for dyslexia (impaired decoding and spelling) and/or dysgraphia (impaired handwriting). General principles for diagnosis and treatment, based on research with children who failed to respond to the regular instructional program, are summarized for children meeting research criteria for having or being at risk for dyslexia or dysgraphia. Research documenting earlier emerging specific oral language impairment during preschool years associated with reading and writing disabilities during school years is also reviewed. Recent seminal advances and projected future trends are discussed for linking brain endophenotypes and gene candidates, identifying transchromosomal interactions, and exploring epigenetics (chemic al modifications of gene expression in response to developmental or environmental changes). Rather than providing final answers, this review highlights past, current and emerging issues in dyslexia research and practice.

Genes on chromosome 6 have been linked to phonemic awareness.
“genes on chromosome 6 have been linked to phonemic awareness (28).”
From Disorder of written expression and dysgraphia: definition, diagnosis, and management (2020) · cites this paper as [28]
In “Storing & processing spoken words & their parts” (page unavailable), the paper reports a genetic basis for nonword repetition, but not for phoneme awareness. Its chromosome 6 finding, in “Executive function: inhibition & rapid automatic switching phenotypes” (page unavailable), instead associates a DCDC2 variant with impaired rapid automatic switching and, to some extent, inattention ratings. (LLM, conf=0.85)

“…group’s prior cross-sectional and longitudinal assessment studies and instructional intervention studies with students in the early and upper elementary grades (ages 6–11) and middle school grades (ages 12–14) to define dysgraphia, dyslexia, and OWL LD (for review, see Berninger & Richards, 2010).”

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.
