Abstract excerpt
Antipsychotics-induced metabolic syndrome (APs-induced MetS) is a common side-effect of antipsychotics, significantly increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases and mortality. However, the genetic risk factors underlying APs-induced MetS remain poorly understood. Thus, we conducted a sex-stratified genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 3067 patients from Schizophrenia In Non-Occidental participants (SINO)...
