A genomic study of trichotillomania and excoriation disorder in families

Samantha R. Greenspun, Isabella Milanes, Luís C. Farhat, Sarah B. Abdallah, Diana D. Bok, Doris Chen, Wenzhong Liu, Enock Teefe, Michael H. Bloch, Thomas V. Fernandez, Emily Olfson

This study investigates the genetic architecture of trichotillomania and excoriation disorder using genome-wide array data from 110 families, finding significant polygenic risk for OCD and rare CNVs in neurodevelopmental genes.
