Abstract

Depressed children had significantly lower serum calcium than the control group. Schizophrenic and conduct-disorder children did not differ significantly from controls in serum calcium. Both depressed children and schizophrenic children had significantly lower serum magnesium than the control group and the conduct-disorder group. The conduct-disorder group did not differ significantly from that of the control group.
