rs1130864 PTSD symptoms CRP T=-0.11, P-value=0.004; controlled for population stratification: t=2.65, P-value=0.008; after covarying for principal components,sex,age,education, current employment, income, and total trauma experienced/witnessed: t=2.70, P-value=0.007 Using a dominant model, rs1130864 was significantly associat...... Using a dominant model, rs1130864 was significantly associated with overall PTSD symptoms. The main effects of genotype on PTSD symptoms were maintained when the analyses controlled for population stratification (using principal components) in the dominant model. The effect of rs1130864 genotype on PTSD symptoms survived after covarying for principal components, sex, age, education, current employment, income, and total trauma experienced/witnessed. More...
