Genome-wide scan of bipolar disorder in 65 pedigrees: supportive evidence for linkage at 8q24, 18q22, 4q32, 2p12, and 13q12.

First, we used an approach described previously19 to divide the 65 pedigrees according to the parental lineage of the disorder, then we carried out linkage analyses with the sib_ibd routine of ASPEX (v2.2) in the two groups s ...
