TL;DR: The analyses indicate that there is an association between COMT Val108/158Met and schizophrenia in the general population and in Caucasian populations, this risk could be increased.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the genetic risk for heart diseases is associated with the PON1 gene polymorphisms, L55M polymorphism is a risk factor and Q192R polymorphisms is protective in certain populations.

TL;DR: The meta-analysis suggests an association of the DRD2 gene and the risk for schizophrenia, given that TaqI and C 957T polymorphisms presented a protective effect against schizophrenia, and in the sub-analyses the C957T variant increased the risk of this disorder in the Chinese population.

TL;DR: There is no evidence of association between the polymorphism Val66Met of BDNF (rs6265) and suicide behavior in the overall population, however, ethnic differences can be observed and the BDNF Val66 met might increase the risk for suicidebehavior in Asian and Caucasian populations.

TL;DR: Using robust data, it is found that IL-6 (rs1800795) -174G>C gene polymorphism is associated with CVD risk and carriers of the C allele of 174G >C (rs 1800795) polymorphism have an increase in the risk of coronary artery disease under the hereditary models assessed in the study.
