The results of the dexamethasone suppression test (DST) were compared to levels of 24-hour 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG) in 60 patients with unipolar depression. DST nonsuppressors had significantly higher levels of MHPG than did DST suppressors. The possible implications of this finding are discussed.
对60例单相抑郁症患者的地塞米松抑制试验(DST)结果与24小时3-甲氧基-4-羟基苯乙二醇(MHPG)水平进行了比较。DST不抑制者的MHPG水平显著高于DST抑制者。讨论了这一发现可能的意义。
