ABSTRACT The missense SNP NC_000004.12:g.102267552C>T (also known as SLC39A8.p.(Ala391Thr), rs13107325) in SLC39A8 encodes a zinc transporter. This SNP has been linked to schizophrenia and is the likely causal variant for one of the genome‐wide association loci associated with the disorder. Using regression analyses, we tested whether the schizophrenia‐

Bayesian Shape Invariant Model for Latent Growth Curve with Time-Invariant Covariates [PDF]
In the attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) study, children are prescribed different stimulant medications. The height measurements are recorded longitudinally along with the medication time. Differences among the patients are captured by the parameters suggested the Superimposition by Translation and Rotation (SITAR) model using three ...
