title: Similarity of patterns of urine excretion among nonpolyuric and polyuric patients with thought disorders.
abstract: From a study population of 29 institutionalized chronically psychotic patients, 70% of whom had schizophrenic or schizoaffective disorders, nonpolyuric and polyuric patients had similar diurnal patterns of urine excretion. Patients excreted a larger portion of daily urine volume after noon (55%) than before noon (45%).
