Introductory part to a series of four articles on what was known about schizophrenia at the time of writing. Part 2 is on Epidemiology and etiology, part 3 on Neurobiology and part 4 on Clinical features and conceptualizations of this complex topic.

The series is structured around a list (given in part 1) of facts on schizophrenia, which are assessed in terms of reproducibility, relevance to the illness and how long they had been known

Provides an analysis of correlations between 10 volume-based brain morphometric measures and 32 single-nucleotide polymorphisms in 25 schizophrenic patients, tentatively identifying RELN, the gene encoding reelin, as possibly involved in ventricular enlargement, and PCDH12, the gene encoding protocadherin 12, as a candidate for genetic invovlvement in gyrification.
