Estimates of number of neurons, volume, and neuron density in VPM of control and schizophrenic cases
| VPM | Control | Schizophrenic | % Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of neurons | 137,376 ± 8,966.1 | 134,437 ± 12,402 | −3.78 |
| Nucleus volume, mm3 | 43.4800 ± 7.2747 | 45.39 ± 6.0583 | 6.99 |
| Neuron density, neurons/mm3 | 3,246.05 ± 682.78 | 4,370 ± 1,206 | −8.52 |
Number of neurons is average of all subjects in control or schizophrenic groups. Percent difference is the average of the percent differences between the matched pairs.
