ADHD And Parkinsons Disease Linked To Gene-driven Brain Volume
254 genetic variants were linked to brain volume in critical subcortical regions. Findings connect brain volume differences to conditions like adhd and parkinson’s. While previous research has clearly linked certain regions with disease, such as the basal ganglia with parkinson's disease, the new study reveals which gene variants shape. Spanning nearly 100 laboratories in 45 countries, landmark research has, for the first time, shown an association between genetic brain size and neurological conditions such. An international dna and brain structure study led by queensland researchers is shedding light on the causes of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd) and.
A number of new genetic variants associated. Subcortical areas, also known as the 'deep brain,' play key roles in functions like attention, emotion, motor control, and learning. They're also involved in many neurological. Our genetic findings reveal that larger regional brain volumes (the size of specific parts of the brain) are associated with a higher risk of parkinson's disease.
