Candidate association study |
Summary |
Considerable evidence above reveals that the COMT Val/Met SNP is germane to ADHD and becomes one of the most popular SNPs in ADHD. However, the negative result of the meta-analysis on involvement of the COMT Val/Met polymorphism in increasing the risk for ADHD cannot be considered definitive. |
