摘要: We found diurnal weight gain to be abnormal among 93 chronically psychotic patients, most of whom had schizophrenia. They were weighed at 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. weekly for 3 weeks. normalized the (NDWG) as a percentage by subtracting from weight, multiplying difference 100, dividing result weight. NDWG was 1.7 +/- 1.0 percent study sample, 0.6 0.4 16 acutely controls, 0.5 29 normals. More than 60 sample values. related antipsychotic drug dose (r = 0.290, p 0.005) with variability in accounting 8 NDWG. This report provides yet another piece evidence that disordered water balance is common chronic psychiatric patients. The etiology unknown, but it may relate subtle brain abnormalities regulation fluid intake excretion.
