Genetic markers of ADHD-related variations in intracranial volume
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common and highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorder with a complex pathophysiology, where genetic risk is hypothesized to be mediated by alterations in structure and function of diverse brain networks. We tested one aspect of this hypothesis by investigating the genetic overlap between ADHD (n=55,374) and (mainly subcortical) brain volumes (n=11,221-24,704), using the largest publicly available studies. At the level of common variant genetic architecture, we discovered a significant negative genetic correlation between ADHD and intracranial volume (ICV). Meta-analysis of individual variants found significant loci associated with both ADHD risk and ICV; additional loci were identified for ADHD and amygdala, caudate nucleus, and putamen volumes. Gene-set analysis in the ADHD-ICV meta-analytic data showed significant association with variation in neurite outgrowth-related genes. In summary, our results suggest new hypotheses about biological mechanisms involved in ADHD etiology and highlight the need to study additional brain parameters.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
