The article presents a study on a pair of male monozygotic (MZ) twins discordant for schizophrenia. Twenty-five-year-old MZ twins discordant for schizophrenia are described. Biochemical and other findings were for the most part similar. The index was the lighter at birth, the second born, and had the more abnormal EEG. Skull X-rays showed a number of differences. Upbringing and home environment were consistently unsatisfactory. Both received thyroid extract during the neonatal period. The possible effect of the thyroid extract on the development of the more immature twin is discussed. |
