  • Title: Plasma HVA and MHPG in psychiatric patients with renal failure and levodopa-treated Parkinson's disease.
    Author: Bowers MB.
    Journal: J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci; 1996; 8(4):450-2. PubMed ID: 9116484.
    Abstract:
    Plasma homovanillic acid (HVA), but not plasma 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG), was substantially increased in 4 patients undergoing hemodialysis, 3 patients with chronic renal failure, and 3 patients receiving carbidopa/levodopa for Parkinson's disease. These conditions should be considered in psychiatric research involving plasma HVA.
