Adults who suspect they may be autistic or have ADHD show corresponding neurodevelopmental polygenic effects

2026-08-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Thousands of adults suspect they are autistic or have Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) without a formal diagnosis. Whether this reflects the polygenic effects of the corresponding neurodevelopmental diagnoses or that of other psychiatric diagnoses is unknown. To address this question, we examined polygenic and phenotypic profiles of UK Biobank adults with suspected, diagnosed, or...
