Just read the article... I think the thing is now they can do a genetic screen for children who have the variant dopamine 4 receptor. Although, I think that it is difficult to measure blood dopamine levels in these children, the regulation at the receptor and its variants is interesting understanding a mental illness like ADHD/ADD.
That means better treatment and pharmaceuticals...
Overdiagnosis is not necessarily and problem, especially if one cannot obtain effective therapeutic treatments...
