In the present investigation, an association between the -240A allele and a reduced risk for MDD was observed, but the genotype distributions of controls were only just in marginal agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.The T-T haplotype in the ACE gene was significantly associated with an increased risk for MDD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
