(Top) Serum monoamine and metabolite levels in controls (CON) and in patients treated with typical (TYP), atypical (ATYP) or both types of antipsychotic drug. Atypical > Typical, * P < 0.1; ** P < 0.08; *** P < 0.04; # P < 0.006 (covaried for age, IQ and CPZ). (Bottom) Turnover rates for 3 monoamines, and the ratio of dopamine (DA) to noradrenaline (NA) and serotonin (5-HT) metabolism (HVA/MHPG, HVA/5-HIAA), respectively. Controls (vs. whole patient group) showed less 5-HT TR (P < 0.05) and more HVA vs. 5-HIAA and MHPG (both ## P < 0.002).
