Genetically Informed Study Highlights Income-Independent Effect of Schizophrenia Liability on Mental and Physical Health.
Article in Schizophrenia bulletin, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
background and hypothesisIndividuals with schizophrenia (SCZ) suffer from comorbidities that substantially reduce their life expectancy. Socioeconomic inequalities could contribute to many of the negative health outcomes associated with SCZ. STUDY
designWe investigated genome-wide datasets related to SCZ (52 017 cases and 75 889 controls) from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, household income (HI; N = 361 687) from UK Biobank, and 2202 medical endpoints assessed in up to 342 499 FinnGen participants. A phenome-wide genetic correlation analysis of SCZ and HI was performed, also assessing whether SCZ genetic correlations were influenced by the HI effect on SCZ. Additionally, SCZ and HI direct effects on medical endpoints were estimated using multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR). STUDY
resultsSCZ and HI showed overlapping genetic correlations with 70 traits (P < 2.89 × 10-5), including mental health, substance use, gastrointestinal illnesses, reproductive outcomes, liver diseases, respiratory problems, and musculoskeletal phenotypes. SCZ genetic correlations with these traits were not affected by the HI effect on SCZ. Considering Bonferroni multiple testing correction (P < 7.14 × 10-4), MR analysis indicated that SCZ and HI may affect medical abortion (SCZ OR = 1.07; HI OR = 0.78), panic disorder (SCZ OR = 1.20; HI OR = 0.60), personality disorders (SCZ OR = 1.31; HI OR = 0.67), substance use (SCZ OR = 1.2; HI OR = 0.68), and adjustment disorders (SCZ OR = 1.18; HI OR = 0.78). Multivariable MR analysis confirmed that SCZ effects on these outcomes were independent of HI.
conclusionsThe effect of SCZ genetic liability on mental and physical health may not be strongly affected by socioeconomic differences. This suggests that SCZ-specific strategies are needed to reduce negative health outcomes affecting patients and high-risk individuals.
