Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In adults, about 40% of the variance in risk of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is due to genetic factors, but little data exist on the heritability of youth MDD. The goal of this study was the genetic analysis of MDD in an epidemiologically and genetically representative sample of adolescent female twins. METHODS: A sample of 3416 female adolescent twins systematically ascertained from birth records...
