Correlation of the methylomic signature of smoking during pregnancy with clinical traits in ADHD

CONCLUSION: This study provides evidence for the association between the level of methylation at specific loci and quantitative dimensions highly relevant for ADHD as well as birth weight, a measure that has already been associated with increased risk for ADHD. Our results provide further support to public health educational initiatives to stop maternal smoking during pregnancy.PMID:37857414 | PMC:PMC10599658 | DOI:10.1503/jpn.230062
