Reference Tested Markers Statistical Values/Author Comments Result Category Comment on Study
Lim, L. C.,1995 Other variant: MAOB_(GT)n X<sup>2</sup> = 4.49, df = 5, P-value = 0.4814.. There was no difference in the distribution of alleles between patients and controls at the MAOB locus Negative Comment on Study
Muramatsu, T., 1997 Other variant: MAOB_(GT)n Therefore, our results did not support the involvement of the alleles at MAOA and MAOB in the etiology of mood disorder. Negative Comment on Study
Lin, S.,2000 Other variant: MAOB_(GT)n As for association studies, significant association between bipolar disorder and MAOB gene was detected. Positive Comment on Study
Parsian, A., 1997 Other variant: MAOB_1-12 allele These data do not support the association of MAO-A or B with bipolar affective disorder but do demonstrate that undetected population stratification can be an important source of bias in case-control studies. Positive Comment on Study
