Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic meta-analyses and field synopsis of genetic association studies of violence and aggression

TL;DR: Current evidence does not support the use of such genes to predict dangerousness or as markers for therapeutic interventions, and no association between any polymorphism analyzed and aggression is found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expanding the range of ZNF804A variants conferring risk of psychosis

Stacy Steinberg, +80 more
- 01 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: As it has been proposed that variants such as rs1344706[T]—common and with low relative risk—may also serve to identify regions harboring less common, higher-risk susceptibility alleles, ZNF804A is searched for large copy number variants (CNVs) in psychosis patients and patients with other psychiatric disorders and 39 481 controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prospects for using risk scores in polygenic medicine.

TL;DR: The potential for translation to clinical use of polygenic risk scores that combine thousands of variants show some predictive ability across a range of complex traits and diseases, including neuropsychiatric disorders is considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Penetrance for copy number variants associated with schizophrenia

TL;DR: Although CNVs are still far from being clinically useful or relevant to genetic counselling for specific disorders, their detection may hold an important clinical value in predicting negative developmental outcomes.
