Serum CRP levels were measured by immunofluorescence. The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and alternative forms of the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) were also assessed.

Serum CRP levels were found positively correlated with total and negative PANSS scores, and showed negatively correlated with overall cognitive test scores in the DS samples.Conclusion: Serum C-reactive protein levels and their association with cognitive performance were different between deficit schizophrenia and non-deficit schizophrenia samples, and higher serum CRP level was associated with worse cognitive performance in the DS patients. The results indicated that CRP could be a potential biomarker, and DS could be a distinct subset of schizophrenia.Keywords: schizophrenia, deficit schizophrenia, C-reactive protein, inflammation, cognitive impairmentPan LHQian MQu WTang QYan YDove Medical Pressarticleschizophreniadeficit schizophreniac-reactive proteininflammationcognitive impairmentNeurosciences.
