Abstract Psychiatric and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are frequently comorbid and are interconnected through the brain-heart axis. However, the underlying shared genetic etiology remains unknown in East Asians.
Abstract Increasing evidence supports associations between cognitive function and autoimmune disorders, yet the underlying genetic mechanisms remain unclear. Using large-scale genome-wide association statistics for seven cognitive traits and fifteen autoimmune disorders, together with two independent cohorts comprising 522 healthy individuals and 80 patients with schizophrenia, we performed multi-level pleiotropic analyses.
Abstract The diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) urgently requires objective biomarkers for clinical translation. In this study, we established a multicenter cohort to date (N = 1,816; comprising 910 MDD patients and 906 healthy control subjects), using 23,608 standardized speech samples. Based on 6,373 acoustic-prosodic features, we develop a deep learning framework that employs a self-supervised architecture to leverage speech biomarkers.
