Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The 5-HTT short allele has been controversially associated with an increased risk of major depressive disorder. OBJECTIVE: To determine the association of 5-HTT short allele with major depression in Bogotá, Colombia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We carried out a study of cases (n=68) matched 1:1 with controls by gender and age (±5 years). Major depression was diagnosed using the Mini-International...
