The authors evaluated 108 patients with schizophrenia, 50 patients with affective disorder, and 74 age- and sex-matched control subjects by CAT scan for evidence of global cerebellar atrophy. No difference was found between control subjects and schizophrenic patients or between control subjects and patients with affective disorder. This study does not confirm previous reports linking cerebellar atrophy to schizophrenia.
作者通过计算机断层扫描(CAT)评估了108例精神分裂症患者、50例情感障碍患者以及74名年龄和性别匹配的对照者,以寻找全小脑萎缩的证据。对照者与精神分裂症患者之间以及对照者与情感障碍患者之间均未发现差异。这项研究并未证实先前有关小脑萎缩与精神分裂症之间关联的报道。
