Neurometabolic Stability and Heritability in the Adolescent Brain: A Preliminary Longitudinal Twin MRS Study

NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 6, June 2026.
In this preliminary longitudinal MRS study of early adolescent twins, neurometabolite ratios in the prefrontal cortex and thalamus appeared relatively stable over a 6‐month interval. Moderate heritability estimates were observed for prefrontal Glx (glutamine + glutamate) as well as thalamic glutamate and choline compounds, suggesting possible region ...

Medical demography and epidemiology: dizygotic twins [PDF]

European Journal of Epidemiology, 2009
Demography is the statistical study of populations, epidemiology of health of populations. Fascinating challenges for future research, shared by epidemiology and demography, are to be found in the human life course, how the life course is transmitted over generations, how the healthy life is shaped by dynamics within the life course and how the life ...

Advancing Brain and Body Vascular Imaging in Bipolar Disorder: A Report From the International Society for Bipolar Disorders Vascular Task Force

Bipolar Disorders, Volume 28, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives The heart–brain nexus is increasingly recognized as important for human health. Nonetheless, integration of this perspective in research and treatment remains limited in psychiatry, particularly in bipolar disorder (BD). Multisystem vascular imaging may help elucidate mechanisms linking heart and brain health in BD.

Preverbal Language Abilities in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins

, 2007
This study examined prelinguistic language development of twins by delineating: differences from developmental expectations; twin-twin communication and twin-mother communication differences; and monozygotic-dizygotic differences.

Social Comparison Orientation in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins [PDF]

, 2017
Twin research has offered evidence that monozygotic (MZ) twins are more socially close than dizygotic (DZ) twins, but has not paid much attention to the way twins compare themselves with their co-twin.

A person‐centered and genetically informed approach toward characterizing multidomain resilience to neighborhood disadvantage in youth

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, Volume 67, Issue 6, Page 804-815, June 2026.
Background Examining resilience to adversity across multiple behavioral domains (e.g., psychological well‐being, social functioning) can better characterize positive development and inform novel prevention and intervention efforts. However, few studies have employed person‐centered methods to examine individual profiles of resilience across multiple ...

DNA methylation profiles in monozygotic and dizygotic twins

, 2009
Twin studies have provided the basis for genetic and epidemiological studies in human complex traits1, 2. As epigenetic factors can contribute to phenotypic outcomes, we conducted a DNA methylation analysis in white blood cells (WBC), buccal epithelial ...

Unusual Twinning Resulting in Chimerism: A Systematic Review on Monochorionic Dizygotic Twins

, 2017
Traditionally, it is understood that dizygotic (DZ) twins always have a dichorionic placenta. However, with 8% blood chimerism in DZ twins, placental sharing is probably more common than previously has been recognized. In this article, we will review all
