TL;DR: Results from de novo events and a large parallel case–control study provide strong evidence in favour of CHD8 and KATNAL2 as genuine autism risk factors and support polygenic models in which spontaneous coding mutations in any of a large number of genes increases risk by 5- to 20-fold.

TL;DR: The saimie paper suggests how susceptible individuals could reduce their total intake of aluminium and suggests that although definite proof is still lacking, there is more than enough evidence to fuel further epidemiological investigation.

TL;DR: A genome-wide analysis of rare copy-number variation in 1124 autism spectrum disorder families, each comprised of a single proband, unaffected parents, and, in most kindreds, an unaffected sibling, finds significant association of ASD with de novo duplications of 7q11.23, where the reciprocal deletion causes Williams-Beuren syndrome.

TL;DR: The extent to which common genetic variation underlies the risk of schizophrenia is shown, using two analytic approaches, and the major histocompatibility complex is implicate, which is shown to involve thousands of common alleles of very small effect.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the use of goodness-of-fit indices for the assessment of the fit of structural equation models to data and assess their strengths and weaknesses, and discuss less biased estimates of goodness of fit and a relative normedfit index for testing fit of a structural model exclusive of the measurement model.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that autism is under a high degree of genetic control and suggest the involvement of multiple genetic loci.
