Parental characteristics and the risk of schizophrenia in a Chinese population: a case-control study.

CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that parental years of education and age of childbearing are associated with an increased risk of schizophrenia in a Chinese population. Age of onset of schizophrenia was positively associated with a greater number of siblings and negatively associated with parental marital disharmony.
