It was a day in the summer of 1965 when the spirit of darkness behind schizophrenia overwhelmed my life and disabled me from living normally. I had known the Lord Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour for about eight years. Two things happened that day as I was going about my job as a ...
Support for the putatively increased activation of microglia cells is provided by two studies using 11C-PK11195 PET, reporting increased activation of microglia cells especially in the temporal lobes in patients with early-stage schizophrenia as compared with controls.96,97 A third PET study using ...
