	Estimated Variance (95% CI)
	Additive genetic (A)		Shared environmental (C)		Non-shared environmental (E)

Disorder	Unique	Shared	Unique	Shared	Unique	Shared
ADHD	0.70 (0.60 - 0.80)	0.07 (0.01 - 0.13)	0.04 (0.00 - 0.08)	0.00 (−0.01 - 0.01)	0.19 (0.15 - 0.23)	0.00 (0.00 - 0.00)
Obesity	0.43 (0.30 - 0.55)	0.04 (0.01 - 0.08)	0.11 (0.05 - 0.17)	0.00 (−0.02 - 0.03)	0.42 (0.35 - 0.49)	0.00 (0.00 - 0.00)
	Genetic correlation (r_g)		Shared environmental correlation (r_c)		Non-shared environmental correlation (r_e)
ADHD and Obesity	0.30 (0.17 - 0.44)		0.19 (−0.37 - 0.75)		−0.03 (−0.19 - 0.13)

Proportion of phenotypic correlation explained by shared genetic influence: 0.98 (0.55 - 1.00)
