Genomic influences on self-reported childhood maltreatment
The study failed to replicate (big surprise), and is entirely bogus and I could go through it and pick it apart but, instead, I am just going to say that the implication here is that there are genes for getting beaten up as a kid. I guess, that's what they are trying to say, anyway. I am just going to say that I find this disgusting and refuse to even engage with it further. The authors should be ashamed of themselves for printing it. I'll also point out that this is another example of a UK Biobank study where the application for the use of the database was deliberately vague. If you need to use subterfuge to get your study printed, then you are being doubly unethical. Hopefully, as noted in my previous post, this type of drivel will be prevented from further use of the UK Biobank.
