Few brain imaging studies of schizophrenia involve samples with enhanced genetic homogeneity. We compared MRI volumetric data between individuals with 1q21-q23 linked familial schizophrenia associated with NOS1AP and their first and second degree unaffected relatives. We found significant gray matter reductions in the anterior cingulate gyrus in both affected individuals and their unaffected first degree relatives when compared with their unaffected second degree relatives. These results suggest that the changes are primarily due to genetic risk and not illness effects, and may represent an intermediate phenotype.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 29 March 2025.
All research outputs
#8,534,976
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Schizophrenia Research
#2,189
of 5,686 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#38,538
of 105,214 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Schizophrenia Research
#12
of 27 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,686 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 105,214 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 27 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
