Beyond Picky Eating: Large-Scale Study Reveals the Genetic Architecture and Developmental Impact of ARFI Phenotypes

This large-scale study of 35,751 children characterizes ARFI phenotypes, revealing a 6.3% clinical prevalence and significant genetic heritability. Findings link ARFI to the ADCY3 locus and long-term neurodevelopmental difficulties, emphasizing the need for early identification and broad support interventions.
