Reference Tested Markers Statistical Values/Author Comments Result Category Comment on Study
Lai, Y. C., 2015 SNP: rs17611535, rs1327836, rs499922 Our results support for the involvement of RORs genes in the risk of developing BD. Positive Comment on Study
Byrne, E. M., 2014 P-value=0.37. Gene-based tests show no significant association between this gene and BD. Negative Comment on Study

Haplotype: rs11144033 - rs3903529 - rs968357(), rs17684881 - rs17612218 - rs11144020 - rs17612778 - rs17612874 - rs17691363 - rs10869430(), rs7022435 - rs17691614 - rs7032677()
We report that four intronic RORB SNPs showed positive associations with the pediatric bipolar phenotype that survived Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons in the case-control sample.Three RORB haplotype blocks implicating an additional 11 SNPs were also associated with the disease in the case-control sample.Our findings suggest that clock genes in general and RORB in particular may be important candidates for further investigation in the search for the molecular basis of bipolar disorder.

Mansour, H. A.,2009 SNP: rs10217594, rs10491929, rs17691363 Gene-based tests:X<sup>2</sup>=7.436, P-value = 0.203 in recessive model, X<sup>2</sup>=5.403, P-value = 0.475 in dominant model, X<sup>2</sup>=4.907, P-value = 0.5 in additive model in BPI. Significant association was observed using single SNP-based analyses while no association was observed using gene-based tests in BPI. Positive Comment on Study
