The relationship between Hippocampal asymmetry and working memory processing in combat-related PTSD: a monozygotic twin study [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: PTSD is associated with reduction in hippocampal volume and abnormalities in hippocampal function. Hippocampal asymmetry has received less attention, but potentially could indicate lateralised differences in vulnerability to trauma.

PLoS Genetics, 2012 Monozygotic (MZ) twins do not show complete concordance for many complex diseases; for example, discordance rates for autoimmune diseases are 20%–80%. MZ discordance indicates a role for epigenetic or environmental factors in disease.

Genetic Epidemiology, Volume 50, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT A longstanding aim of developmental psychology and epidemiology is to understand the causal effects of parental phenotypes on offspring outcomes. Traditional approaches often fail to account for confounding and reverse causation. We evaluate the use of Mendelian randomisation with non‐inherited variants (MR‐NIV) to address these limitations ...

A Systematic Evaluation of the Performance of Multiple Brain Age Algorithms in Two Cohorts of Youth
Human Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 2, 01 February 2026.Performance of five influential brain age estimation algorithms in two population‐based cohorts of youth. Brain age was quantified using estimates of brain structure, and performance was evaluated based on correlations with chronological age, error indices, sensitivity to demographic characteristics, scanning parameters, genetic similarity, and ...

Does early life health predict schooling within twin pairs? [PDF]
, 2011 A large number of studies in labor economics estimate the returns to schooling using data on monozygotic twins, under the assumption that educational attainment is random within twin pairs. This exogeneity assumption has been commonly questioned, however,

Obesity, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 394-406, February 2026.ABSTRACT Objective We investigated the impact of sex on the subcutaneous adipose tissue (AT) transcriptome and its obesity‐related adaptations. Methods We studied rare BMI‐discordant monozygotic twin pairs (ΔBMI > 2.5 kg/m2; 21 female, 16 male pairs) to assess how sex affects AT and whole‐body metabolism.
