Large-scale genetic investigation reveals genetic liability to multiple complex traits influencing a higher risk of ADHD

Abstract Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a complex psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorder that develops during childhood and spans into adulthood. ADHD’s aetiology is complex, and evidence about its cause and risk factors is limited. We leveraged genetic data from genome-wide...
