Serum creatine phosphokinase levels and assaultive behaviour of psychotic patients
Psychological Medicine
|February 1, 1984
Abstract:
Serum creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels were compared with assaultive behaviour by 46 psychiatric patients. Significant relationships were found between CPK level and violent behaviour prior to admission and CPK level and seclusion as a danger to others while in hospital. No relationship was found between CPK level and assaultiveness while in hospital.
