sorry, intended to elaborate: When I query my health system's deidentified research patient data registry, there are multiple individuals with both a diagnosis of schizophrenia and a diagnosis of congenital (cortical) blindness. One can of course quibble that claims codes are unreliable (ie, these people really have different diagnoses), but my real point is that the entire article is based on a very limited analysis that could readily be refuted with any of the claims/health registry data sets....
also amusing to see this downvoted, people on HN don't like to see their pet theories questioned.
