Text

The eight duplications identified in the ADHD patient sample at 15q13.3 spanned a consensus region of approximately 420 kb that was clearly defined by two segmental duplications (chr15:29,811,982–30,232,981, National Center for Biotechnology Information Build 36.1-hg18). From each replication cohort, we selected all duplications in the case and comparison subjects that spanned the 15q13.3 consensus region by at least 60%. Tests of association were then performed for each replication sample by Fisher's exact test and for meta-analysis by logistic regression with sample site included as an independent variable. The Breslow-Day test was used to test for heterogeneity between replication samples.
