Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: There is very little genetically informative research identifying true environmental risks for psychiatric conditions. These may be best explored in regions with diverse environmental exposures. The current study aimed to explore similarities and differences in such risks contributing to depression and fatigue. METHODS: Home interviews assessed depression (lifetime-ever), fatigue and environmental...
