Testing DAT1 and DRD4 Genes in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Using a Wide Spectrum of Neurocognitive Batteries. [PDF]

Int J Dev Neurosci
This study examined DAT1 and DRD4 VNTR polymorphisms and neurocognitive performance in 336 children and adolescents with ADHD and controls using the CNS Vital Signs battery. DAT1 10R/10R showed no significant effects after adjustment, whereas DRD4 4R/4R was associated with reduced cognitive flexibility. ABSTRACT Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder
