Abstract
Meta-analysis: We pooled 472 relatives and 513 controls. The P300 amplitude was significantly reduced in relatives (PSES = 0.61; 95% CI: 0.30 to 0.91; P < 0.001). The P300 latency was significantly delayed in relatives (PSES of −0.50; 95% CI: −0.88 to −0.13; P = 0.009]. Local study: The patients showed a trend for amplitude reductions (P = 0.06) and significant latency delays (P < 0.01). The relatives displayed normal amplitude but had significant latency delays (P = 0.01). The P300 amplitude and especially the P300 latency are promising alternative phenotypes for genetic research into schizophrenia.
