title: Genetic variations of FACL4 have no obvious influence on cognitive ability in young Chinese children.
abstract: The influence of genetic variants of FACL4 on individual cognitive ability was examined in a random sample of 213 boys and 224 girls. Both conventional genetic methods and analysis of variance were applied in this study. We found no significant relationship between FACL4 and cognitive function.
