Genetic and environmental associations between body dissatisfaction, weight preoccupation, and binge eating: Evidence for a common factor with differential loadings across symptom type
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "International Journal of Eating Disorders"
DOI: 10.1002/eat.22625
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Prior twin studies provide support for a single "common factor" that contributes genetic and environmental risk to a range of disordered eating symptoms. However, the common factor may be indexed less well by binge… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/gepi.22092
Abstract: The substantial heritability of most complex diseases suggests that genetic data could provide useful risk prediction. To date the performance of genetic risk scores has fallen short of the potential implied by heritability, but this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-981-13-6260-6_14
Abstract: Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is a key enzyme in the detoxification of toxic aldehydes, especially acetaldehyde, which is commonly considered as a carcinogen. ALDH2 mutation and impaired enzymatic activity will cause acetaldehyde accumulation and thus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-981-15-2389-2_8
Abstract: Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are among the most common human birth defects. However, the etiology of a large proportion of CHDs remains undefined. Studies identifying the molecular and cellular mechanisms that underlie cardiac development have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10519-016-9833-z
Abstract: Results from previous studies on DSM-IV and DSM-5 Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD) have suggested that the construct is etiologically multidimensional. To our knowledge, however, the structure of genetic and environmental influences in ASPD has not… read more here.
