Introduction: Not all ADHD subjects respond equally to stimulants Methods: We analyzed the clinical response, CPT performance and DAT1 polymorphism of 73 ADHD patients 8–14 years of age (13 girls) after 1 year of stimulant treatment. Results: (1) A positive correlation between CPT performance and clinical response; (2) clinical response depends on comorbidities while CPT performance does not; (3) the clinically responding group shows a higher IQ than the nonresponding group; (4) children displaying little improvement in the CPT test after treatment have a higher frequency of the DAT1 9R allele (χ2 p 0.02); but clinical response is independent of DAT1 polymorphism. Conclusion: CPT and genetics are good predictors of stimulant response. FONDECYT 1070761 and 1080219. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
