Non-random mating, parent-of-origin, and maternal-fetal incompatibility effects in schizophrenia.

Abstract excerpt

Although the association of common genetic variation in the extended MHC region with schizophrenia is the most significant yet discovered, the MHC region is one of the more complex regions of the human genome, with unusually high gene density and long-range linkage disequilibrium. The statistical test on which the MHC association is based is a relatively simple, additive model which uses logistic regression of...
