ABSTRACT
The purpose of this paper is to optimize the course construction and teaching process of psychopharmacology， and analyze the problems in the course of teaching and assessment of psychopharmacology from many aspects. This article is to deeply excavate the space for improvement， and enrich the teaching links by using existing conditions， technology and personnel to enhance the teaching effect and improve the teaching quality， so as to provide references for the reform of similar course teaching.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the efficacy and side effects of aripiprazole combined with modified electroconvulsive therapy (MECT) in the treatment of female refractory schizophrenia.Methods One hundred and five female refractory schizophrenia patients in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from July 2014 to May 2016 were selected and divided into control group and observation group.Fifty-two patients in the control group were treated with aripiprazole.In the observation group,53 patients were treated with aripiprazole combined with MECT.All the patients were treated for eight weeks.Clinical efficacies were assessed with the positive and negative syndrome syndrome scale (PANSS);Wechsler memory scale (WMS) were used to evaluate the effect of MECT on memory.Adverse drug reactions were evaluated by treatment emergent symptom scale(TESS) before and after treatment in both groups.Results There was no significant difference in PANSS scores between the two groups before treatment (P ＞ 0.05).The positive symptom scores,the general mental pathology scores and the PANSS total scores in the two groups at the end of the second week were significantly lower than before treatment(P ＜ 0.05);at the end of fourth and eighth week of treatment,the negative symptom scores,the positive symptom scores,the general psychopathological scores and the PANSS total scores of the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).The positive symptoms,the general psychopathological scores and the PANSS total score in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the end of fourth week of treatment (P ＜0.05).At the end of the eighth week of treatment,the negative symptom scores,the positive symptom scores,the general psychopathological scores and the PANSS total scores in the observation group were significant lower than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).At the end of the eighth week of treatment,the decreasing rates of PANSS score in the observation group and control group were (39.89-8.62) ％ and (31.97-± 8.17) ％,and the total effective rates were 66.67％ and 48.08％,respectively.The decreasing rates of PANSS score and total effective rates in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The WMS score of the observation group decreased more significantly at the end of the second week of treatment compared with that before treatment;at the end of the fourth week of treatment,the score of the picture was louer than that before treatment(P ＜ O.05);but there was no significant difference in WMS score between that at the end of the eighth week and before treatment(P ＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference between the two groups in the TESS score and adverse reaction rate (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with single application of aripiprazole,MECT combined with aripiprazole can significantly improve effects in treating female refractory schizophrenia and it can not increase the side effects.
