DAT1 40 bases repeat VNTR (hr5,exon15) 9R VNTR Polymorphism of DAT Gene (SLC6A3) = 9/10 = 38 Controls healthy European Americans, however, a smoking status not established nor many other RDS behaviors excluding substance abuse. van Dyck et al. [39].
COMT Val158/108Met-A allele GA = 29.4 Without any history of systematic diseases, psychiatric disorders, asthma, cancer, cataracts, or psychotic disorder with major depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder were selected. But not specific to RDS behaviors. Saravani et al. [40].
MOA-A 30 bases repeat VNTR Chr X Promoter 3.5 R, 4 R 3.5 R =58; 4.5R = 41 Korean children only ADHD screened but no RDS behaviors too young to determine Hwang et al. [41]

5HTTLPR: (SLC6A4) rs25531 and risk alleles Rs2531= 68 Indian control no alcohol dependence and other drugs and no psychosis or bipolar depression but nicotine not excluded or any other RDS behavior Malhotra et al. [43].
Rs4532 Mu-opioid Receptor (OPRM1) rs1799971 Chr6 risk allele G rs1799971 AG = 30 Treatment-Emergent Suicidal Ideation (TESI) subjects following anti-depressant medication divided into TESI (yes) or TESI (No). No RDS screened. Nobile et al. [44].
GABRB3 Alpha 3 Chr15 (DNR) risk allele 181 (non G1) 181= 35 ADHD compared to non-ADHD controls not screened for RDS behaviors Gade et al. [45].
