Description
The study demonstrates that PLA2G4A and PLA2G6 polymorphisms influence treatment response with moderate to strong effect sizes (6.2-15.7%), but the underlying biochemical pathways connecting genetic variants to clinical outcomes remain unexplained. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for developing personalized antipsychotic treatment strategies.
