HSV1: Herpes Simplex Virus, Subtype 1; SES: Socio-economic Status

t-tests:

1

SZ and HS did not differ in age. Similarly, HSV1+ SZ and HSV1− SZ subjects (t=1.63 p=0.12), and HSV1+ Controls and HSV1− Controls (t=0.50 p=0.62) did not differ in age

2

There were more females among HS (χ2=9.95, p=0.003)

3

SES did not differ between SZ and HS (t=1.26, p=0.22). In addition, HSV1+ SZ and HSV1− SZ subjects (t=0.33 p=0.75), and HSV1+ Controls and HSV1− SZ Controls did not differ in SES (t=0.05, p=0.96)
