Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of differential diagnosis of 5-hydroxytryptamine,dopamine and their metabolic productions in cerebral spinal fluid(CSF) in patients with viral encephalitis and schizophrenia.Methods The CSF concentrations of DA,5-HT,5-hydroxyindole acetic acid(5-HIAA) and homovanillic acid(HVA) were assayed by high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) in the patients with viral encephalitis and meningoencephalitis(67 cases),schizophrenia(37 cases) and other diseases(21 cases).Results(1) Compared with case control group,the concentrations of 5-HT,5-HIAA and the ratios of 5-HIAA/5-HT,5-HT/DA were significantly lower in viral encephalitis and meningoencephalitis group(P
