Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Objective: There are theoretical reasons why comparing marker allele frequencies between cases of different diseases, rather than with controls, may offer benefits. The samples may be better matched, especially for background risk factors common to both diseases. Genetic loci may also be detected which influence which of the two diseases occurs if common risk factors are present.

506 European ancestry bipolar 1 disorder cases, 523 European ancestry schizophrenia cases, 505 European ancestry controls
