Journal ArticleDOI

Monoamine oxidase A gene polymorphism and suicide: An association study and meta-analysis

TL;DR: No significant association was found in this study, suggesting MAOA-uVNTR polymorphism is unlikely to contribute significantly to suicide behavior, and further studies investigating the gene-environment interaction or focusing on the genetic risk factors of endophenotypes of suicidal behaviors are warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adverse effects of risperidone and haloperidol treatment in schizophrenia.

TL;DR: R risperidone was superior to haloperidol in improving negative symptoms and better tolerated during the 12 weeks' treatment of schizophrenia, and serum prolactin levels could predict the severity of parkinsonism and dyskinesia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-associated decrease in global DNA methylation in patients with major depression

TL;DR: A decrease in global DNA methylation associated with age in patients with severe depression is found, and the 5-mc level was found to be inversely correlated with disease severity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between suicide attempt and a tri-allelic functional polymorphism in serotonin transporter gene promoter in Chinese patients with schizophrenia

TL;DR: Preliminary evidence is provided for a potentially gender-specific role of a "high-expression" 5-HTTLPR polymorphism in susceptibility to suicide in Chinese patients with schizophrenia.
