The findings are supported by a number of additional analyses including e.g. analyses of siblings in which the researchers made comparisons with own siblings in order to minimise the genetic effects. The study thus expands previous studies by showing that there is a correlation between infections and mental disorders – in addition to genetics and socio-economic factors. Photo: Colourbox.
