Serum copper in schizophrenia in Nigerians.

D A Olatunbosun, M O Akindele, B K Adadevoh, T Asuni.   

Abstract

Serum copper concentrations were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in 102 schizophrenic patients and 95 healthy control subjects. The serum copper concentrations were significantly higher in the schizophrenic patients than in the normal control subjects. The average serum copper in schizophrenic females was higher than in schizophrenic males, but the difference was not statistically significant.
