Abstract
The mean creatine phosphokinase level of 41 psychotic patients was significantly higher than that of 30 nonpsychotic psychiatric patients, as were their MMPI [Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory] paranoia and schizophrenia scores. Their creatine phosphokinase level was negatively correlated with hysteria and psychopathic deviance.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
