Examination of genetic variation in GABRA2 with conduct disorder and alcohol abuse and dependence in a longitudinal study.

abstract：:Gender-moderated gene-environment interactions are rarely explored, raising concerns about inaccurate specification of etiological models and inferential errors. The current study examined the influence of gender, negative and positive daily life events, and GABRA2 genotype (SNP rs279871) on alcohol dependence, testin...
