摘要: Abstract The authors examined melatonin circadian rhythms in childhood depression by measuring integrated plasma concentrations hourly blood samples, obtained constant withdrawal during 24 hours, nine depressed boys and 10 control similar age pubertal development. Mean 24-hour mean overnight were significantly lower the boys. These preliminary results indicate that secretion is decreased depression, as adult depression. Further studies are needed to examine usefulness of a marker for trait
