title: Plasma amine oxidase and clinical features of schizophrenia.
abstract: Among 76 chronic schizophrenic patients, plasma amine oxidase activity was unrelated to paranoid/nonparanoid subtype, narrow/broad diagnostic criteria, prognosis, or age at onset. These clinical indices do not identify biological subtypes of schizophrenia with deviant plasma amine oxidase activity.
