Abstract
A patient with chronic schizophrenia had two hemodialyses and two sham dialyses in a single-blind design. There was no change in the patient's affect after either procedure, but her auditory hallucinations disappeared after both hemodialysis and sham dialysis, with hemodialysis inducing a much longer partial remission.Keywords
