Abstract:
Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder and one of the top ten causes of disability worldwide. Its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood, making early prevention challenging. With the development of systematic epidemiological methods, multidimensional data integration and analysis have increasingly contributed to exploring the mechanisms of complex diseases and population health. Meanwhile, the progress in genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics have provided more precise tools for schizophrenia research. This paper summarizes the application of multi-omics technologies in the assessment of the risk for schizophrenia, introduces their significance and practical value in this field, and discusses the future application.
