ABSTRACT Background Rare genetic variation can predispose individuals to the development of schizophrenia, with certain genes and copy number variants (CNVs) conferring risk at the exome/genome‐wide level. Despite this strong association, little is known about antipsychotic effectiveness and tolerability among individuals with most of these disorders ...

ABSTRACT Smith‐Magenis Syndrome (SMS) is an uncommon genetic disorder caused by microdeletions of chromosome 17p11.2 including the RAI1 gene, or loss‐of‐function mutations that directly affect RAI1. Due to the involvement of RAI1 in neurodevelopment, SMS leads to typical pathologic features in the behavioral and physical phenotype that must be ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Genetic factors are thought to play an important role in antipsychotic‐induced weight gain (AIWG). Polygenic risk scores (PRS) could provide a measure of genetic predisposition to antipsychotic drug induced weight gain (AIWG).We conducted a study to examine how a PRS, generated using SNPs, identified from a recent meta‐analysis ...
