Mitochondrial DNA SNPs associated with Schizophrenia exhibit Highly Variable Inter-allelic Haplogroup Affiliation and Nuclear Genogeographic Affinity: Bi-Genomic Linkage Disequilibrium raises Major Concerns for Link to Disease
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Mitochondria play a significant role in human diseases. However, disease associations with mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) SNPs have proven difficult to replicate. A reanalysis of eight schizophrenia-associated mtDNA SNPs, in 23,743 normal Danes and 2,538 schizophrenia patients, revealed marked inter-allelic differences in haplogroup affiliation and nuclear ancestry, genogeophraphic affinity (GGA). This bi-genomic linkage disequilibrium (2GLD) could entail population stratification. Only two mitochondrial SNPs, m. 15043A and m. 15218G, were significantly associated with schizophrenia. However, these associations disappeared when corrected for haplogroup affiliation. The extensive 2GLD documented is a major concern when interpreting historic as well as designing future mtDNA association studies.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
