Genome-wide association study results for educational attainment aid in identifying genetic heterogeneity of schizophrenia

2017-03-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Higher educational attainment (EA) is negatively associated with schizophrenia (SZ). However, recent studies found a positive genetic correlation between EA and SZ. We investigated possible causes of this counterintuitive finding using genome-wide association study results for EA and SZ (N = 443,581) and a replication cohort (1,169 controls; 1,067 cases) with deeply phenotyped SZ patients. We fo...
