  • Title: Concentrations of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid and homovanillic acid in the cerebrospinal fluid of chronic therapy-resistant schizophrenics before and after hemodialysis therapy.
    Author: Magnusson O, Fowler CJ, Ross SB, Schulman A, Wetterberg L.
    Journal: Artif Organs; 1983 Aug; 7(3):344-8. PubMed ID: 6194776.
    Abstract:
    The concentrations of the monoamine metabolites 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) and homovanillic acid (HVA) have been determined by high-performance liquid chromatography in samples of lumbar cerebrospinal fluid from chronic therapy-resistant schizophrenics, both before and after either inactive or active hemodialysis for 10 weeks. A reasonable test-retest reliability was found for 5-HIAA during the inactive dialysis, but this was not found during active dialysis.
