Abstract

In this study monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity was measured in blood platelets of 21 individuals (age 2 6/12-19 years) who were diagnosed at preschool age as schizophrenics; MAO activity was not significantly different from that found in normals. An insignificant correlation was found between MAO activity in patients and age; a similar correlation for normals was also insignificant. In a sample of 15 families, no significant correlation between MAO activity of patients and their parents was obtained.

摘要

在本研究中，对21名个体（年龄2岁6个月至19岁）的血小板单胺氧化酶（MAO）活性进行了测量，这些个体在学龄前被诊断为精神分裂症患者；其MAO活性与正常人并无显著差异。患者的MAO活性与年龄之间存在不显著的相关性；正常人中类似的相关性也不显著。在一个包含15个家庭的样本中，未发现患者与其父母的MAO活性之间存在显著相关性。
