Genome-wide association meta-analysis of 20,183 ADHD cases and 35,191 controls finds 12 significant loci; signal concentrates in conserved regions, constrained genes, and CNS regulatory elements.

This study investigates genetic mechanisms underlying sex bias in ADHD prevalence using genome-wide data and finds no mean polygenic burden difference across sexes but increased risk in female siblings and comorbid conditions.
