TL;DR: An etiological overlap of ASD and SCZ is suggested and multiple disease-relevant genes in eight well-known ASD/SCZ-associated CNV loci are identified, which provide biological insights into these disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A shared polygenic risk of schizophrenia between Japanese and Caucasian samples is indicated, although the results did not detect unequivocal evidence for a novel susceptibility gene for schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The study shows the high genetic heterogeneity of SCZ and its clinical features and raises the possibility that genomic instability is involved in its pathogenesis, which may be related to the increased burden of de novo CNVs and variable expressivity of CNVs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between social support during pregnancy and postpartum depressive state: a prospective cohort study.

TL;DR: It is suggested that having a larger number of supportive persons during pregnancy helps protect against postpartum depression, and that this effect is greater in depressive than non-depressive pregnant women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resequencing and Association Analysis of the KALRN and EPHB1 Genes And Their Contribution to Schizophrenia Susceptibility

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that multiple rare (<1%) missense mutations in KALRN may be genetic risk factors for schizophrenia.
