A single nucleotide polymorphism rs12807809 located upstream of the neurogranin (NRGN) gene has been identified as a risk variant for schizophrenia in recent genome-wide association studies. To date, there has been little investigation of t...
Alzheimer's disease risk gene, GAB2, is associated with regional brain volume differences in 755 young healthy twins [0.03%]

The development of late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is under strong genetic control and there is great interest in the genetic variants that confer increased risk. The Alzheimer's disease risk gene, growth factor receptor bound protein...
Associations between variants near a monoaminergic pathways gene (PHOX2B) and amygdala reactivity: a genome-wide functional imaging study [0.03%]
基于单胺类神经通路基因(PHOX2B)附近的变异体与杏仁核反应性的相关性:一项全基因组功能成像研究

As the amygdala is part of the phylogenetic old brain, and its anatomical and functional properties are conserved across species, it is reasonable to assume genetic influence on its activity. A large corpus of candidate gene studies indicat...

The prevalence of the feeling of cold hands and feet (FCHF) is high in the general population but the etiology of FCHF is largely unknown. The aim of the present study was to explore whether the FCHF is heritable. Eight hundred and ninety-f...
Causes of comorbidity: pleiotropy or causality? Shared genetic and environmental influences on migraine and neuroticism [0.03%]

Comorbidity - the clustered occurrence of two traits or disorders - may be studied in genetically informative designs such as the classical twin study, to test whether genetic and/or environmental factors underlying the two disorders are co...

Birth weight in triplets is, on average, lower than in singletons and twins, and more children are classified as having very low or extremely low birth weight. Still, there is limited research on factors that affect triplet birth weight, an...
The potential usefulness of free fetal DNA in maternal blood for prenatal fetal gender determination in multiple pregnancies [0.03%]
母体血液中游离胎儿DNA用于多胎妊娠产前性别鉴定的潜在应用价值

We applied a noninvasive prenatal test for the determination of fetal gender in multiple pregnancies by using free fetal DNA circulating in maternal blood in order to evaluate whether the quantification of male DNA could distinguish the fet...
Validity of lamellar body count as a fetal lung maturity assessment in twin pregnancy [0.03%]
双胎妊娠中板层体计数评估胎儿肺成熟度的可靠性研究
