Stereopsis deficits in patients with schizophrenia in a Han Chinese population [PDF]
AbstractAlthough cognitive and sensory deficits have been identified as a core feature of schizophrenia, only a small portion of visual sensorium has been explored. To date, studies on visual system of three-dimensional percepts based on two-dimensional information still are limited.

RHC genotyping in Chinese Han population
Abstract The Rh blood group is a complex, polymorphic system with 56 antigens. Accurately predicting the presence of the C antigen using genotyping methods has been challenging. This study aimed to evaluate different genotyping methods for C predicting and identifying associated genetic variations in the Chinese Han population.
