Abstract
What do we know about risk factors for PG?
Vast majority of research carried out on PG risk factors has involved cross-sectional surveys
PG status at a single point in time statistically correlated with behaviors & characteristics assessed at the same time
Cannot resolve the “chicken and egg” problem
- Does PG precede other disorders?
- Do other disorders precede PG?
- Or does one underlying condition account for both?
