ABSTRACT

Objective:To ulteriorly explore the differences of psychotic symptoms and neurocognitive between patients with first-episode deficit subtype of schizophrenia (FDS) and patients with first-episode nondeficit subtype of schizophrenia (FNDS).Methods:From January 2021 to September 2021, a total of 88 first-episode treatment-naive schizophrenia were recruited from the Mental Health Center of West China Hospital and divided into FDS group( n=44) and FNDS group( n=44) according to the schedule for the deficit syndrome (SDS), and 44 healthy subjects were included as healthy control group (HC group, n=44). Positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) was used to assess psychotic symptoms of patients and Wechsler adult intelligence scale, trail making test and logic memory test were used to evaluate intelligence quotient and neurocognitive function of all subjects.SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis, and independent samples t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to compare variables that met normal distribution, while the Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to compare variables that did not meet normal distribution. Results:(1) There were significant differences in psychotic symptoms between the FDS group and the FNDS group.Compared with the FNDS group, the FDS group had higher total score of PANSS ((95.95±16.82) vs (88.39±16.29)), negative symptoms ((27.57±7.52) vs (16.57±5.76)) and anergastic reaction ((13.43±3.82) vs (7.00(5.00, 9.00)), and lower positive symptoms scores ((21.95±6.88) vs (25.41±6.07)), activation ((8.00(5.00, 9.00) vs (9.27±3.47)), depression ((5.50(4.00, 9.00) vs (8.00(6.00, 12.00)) and supplementary item ((13.60±4.17) vs (17.30±5.39))(all P<0.05). (2) There were differences in neurocognitive functions between FDS group and FNDS group, and which in FDS and FNDS group were worse than that in HC group.Spatial memory (block design test: (23.70±11.05) vs (31.72±11.49)) and information processing speed (digit symbol test: (38.38±15.85) vs (47.97±14.99)) of FDS group were significantly lower than those of FNDS group(both P<0.05). Intelligence quotient, information processing speed and spatial memory of FDS group and FNDS group were lower than those of HC group(all P<0.05). Conclusion:FDS patients has more severe negative symptoms and anergastic reaction, and exit worse information processing speed and spatial memory dysfunction than FNDS patients.This unique pattern of impairment suggests that information processing speed and spatial memory may be important classification indicators for differentiating the deficit subtype of schizophrenia in the early stage.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of risperidone combined with olanzapine in the treatment of first-episode schizophrenia and its effects on serum homocysteine level and cognitive function.Methods:Sixty patients with first-episode schizophrenia who received treatment in Yiwu Mental Health Center from May 2017 to May 2018 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either olanzapine (control group, n = 30) or olanzapine and risperidone (observation group, n = 30) treatment. All patients received 4 weeks of treatment. We compared serum homocysteine level, cognitive function, and clinical efficacy between the two groups. Results:There was no significant difference in serum homocysteine level pre-treatment between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Serum homocysteine level post-treatment was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group [(13.59 ± 2.61) mmol/L vs. (15.83 ± 2.58) mmol/L, t = 3.34, P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the scores of each cognitive function item pre-treatment between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The scores of each cognitive function item post-treatment in the observation group was (15.06 ± 2.28) points, (21.18 ± 3.26) points, (44.39 ± 4.42) points, (40.63 ± 6.27) points, which were significantly superior to those in the control group [(13.31 ± 2.04) points, (19.26 ± 3.07) points, (42.43 ± 2.07) points, (44.19 ± 5.86) points, t = 3.13, 2.34, 2.12, 2.27, all P < 0.05]. The total improvement rate was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group [93.33% (28/30) vs. 70.00% (21/30), χ2 = 5.45, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Risperidone combined with olanzapine is highly effective on first-episode schizophrenia. The combined therapy can reduce serum homocysteine level and improve cognitive function.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of group interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) on cognitive and social function in patients with first-episode schizophrenia, and to provide references for appropriate psychological treatment for the patients. MethodsA total of 62 patients with first-episode schizophrenia who met the diagnostic criteria of International Classification of Diseases, tenth edition (ICD-10) and were admitted to the Third People's Hospital of Foshan from January to December 2021 were selected as the study objects. And patients were divided into study group and control group according to random number table method, each with 31 cases. Both groups were treated with risperidone for 8 weeks, based on this, study group received group IPT. Before and after 8 weeks of treatment, Positive and Negative Syndrorne Scales (PANSS), Wisconsin Card Sorting Tests (WCST) and Personal and Social Performance Sale(PSP) were adopted to assess the patients' psychiatric symptoms, cognitive function and social function. ResultsAfter 8 weeks of treatment, there was no significant difference in PANSS scores between the two groups (t=0.296, P>0.05). The WCST total number of responses in the study group was larger than that in the control group, the number of perseverative errors and non-perseverative errors were smaller than those in the control group, and PSP score of the study group was higher than that of the control group, with statistically significant differences (t=0.398, 2.609, 0.523, 0.381, P<0.05 or 0.01). ConclusionGroup IPT may have no significant efficacy on alleviating the symptoms of patients with first-episode schizophrenia, but it may help improve the cognitive and social function in patients.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Background: To scale up the services for first-episode schizophrenia in Thailand, it is essential to understand to what extent health care-seeking is delayed, and how much the delay affects the treatment outcome. Objectives: To investigate the duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) and its impact on remission in first-episode schizophrenia across the country. Methods: 276 outpatients with a first-episode schizophrenia were followed for 6 months and assessed whether they fulfilled the criteria for remission at the follow-up. The proportion of those achieving remission was compared by the DUP. The impact of DUP on remission was estimated in multivariate analyses. Results: At the follow-up, 83% (71/86) of patients who had met the criteria for symptomatic remission at the baseline achieved enduring remission, whereas 63% (119/190) of patients who had not met the criteria for symptomatic remission at baseline met it at the follow-up. The shorter the DUP, the higher the proportion of those who achieved symptomatic or enduring remission at the follow-up. The impact of DUP on symptomatic remission appeared to be significant after controlling for other factors influencing remission. Conclusion: Since the DUP would influence remission of patients with schizophrenia, early detection and intervention services should be provided in Thailand.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the difference of the motif patterns in brain directed functional network between first-episode schizophrenia patients and healthy controls, and to analysis the alterations of the underlying information flow patterns in patient networks. Methods The resting-state functional MRI data were collected from 44 first-episode schizophrenia patients and 39 healthy controls. The convergent cross mapping approach was employed to measure the causality connections between brain regions, and the directed functional networks were constructed. The calculations of the frequency and probability spectrum of all motif classes were performed at both whole brain and modular connected level. The between-group difference was then calculated. Results Compared with healthy controls, the frequency spectrum values of all motif classes in schizophrenia were significantly reduced (P<0.05, FDR corrected), the Z scores of frequency spectrum of were decreased in chain-like motifs and increased in loop-like motifs. In the two groups, the probability values were higher at modular level than at whole brain level in two loop-like motifs (P<0.05). Conclusion The present study revealed a loss in brain directed functional connections and abnormal alterations in the basic information flow patterns in first-episode schizophrenia brain.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the characteristics of blood lipid level and cognitive impairment in first-episode schizophrenic patients with positive and negative symptoms, and their correlation. Meth-ods Seventy inpatients with first-episode schizophrenia were enrolled in the hospital. Their psychiatric symptoms were assessed by positive and negative syndrome scale ( PANSS). They were divided into two groups: positive symptoms group with 42 patients and negative symptoms group with 28 patients. All patients were assessed with the Chinese version of the measurement and treatment research to improve cognition in schizophrenia consensus cognitive battery (MCCB). The differences and characteristics of cognitive function between the two groups were compared. Body mass index (BMI),serum triglyceride,total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein and high density lipoprotein were recorded at admission,and the results were compared between the two groups. The correlation between cognitive assessment scores and metabolic indicators intra groups were analyzed using pearson correlation analysis. Results The scores of trail making test( TMT), brief assessment of cognition in schizophrenia-symbol encoding(BACS),Hopkins verbal learning test,maze and continuous performance test-identical pairs ( CPT-IP) in positive group (( 27. 13 ± 6. 89), ( 32. 97 ± 13. 69),(35. 70 ± 7. 52),(32. 63 ± 4. 59),( 33. 35 ± 11. 10)) were higher than those in negative group ((12. 90±14. 72),(19. 90±11. 98),(25. 80±5. 44),( 27. 50±5. 20),( 19. 89±11. 29),all P<0. 05). In terms of BMI and lipid metabolism indicators,the total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein levels in the negative group ((5. 03± 1. 42),( 3. 04 ± 1. 18)) were higher than those in the positive group ((4. 18± 0. 78),(2. 45±0. 64)),and the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05). In negative group,total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein were negatively correlated with the scores of TMT ( r=-0. 469,-0. 751),BACS( r=-0. 517,-0. 538) and CPT-IP ( r=-0. 495,-0. 542) in cognitive function(all P<0. 05). Conclusion First-episode schizophrenia patients with positive and negative symptoms have similar lesion dimensions in cognitive function, but patients with negative symptoms are more severely impaired. There are differences in lipid metabolism between first-episode schizophrenia patients with positive dominant symptoms and negative dominant symptoms,and the lipid metabolism of first-episode schizophrenia patients with negative dominant symptoms is related to cognitive function.

ABSTRACT

Objective • To explore the relationship between θ oscillation of auditory event-related potential P300 and clinical symptoms in the patients with clinical high risk (CHR) of psychosis or first episode schizophrenia (FES). Methods • A total of 18 patients with CHR of psychosis (CHR group), 18 patients with FES (FES group) and 19 healthy controls (control group) were recruited to complete the standard auditory Oddball paradigm as well as electroencephalogram (EEG) recording with 64-channel EEG cap. Fz, Cz and Pz electrodes were selected to compare the amplitudes and peak latent periods among the three groups, and time-frequency analysis of the θ oscillation in P300 was performed. Results • There was significant difference in the amplitudes of P300 among the three groups (P=0.004). The amplitudes of P300 in FES group (P=0.001) and CHR group (P=0.026) were both significantly lower than that of control group. There was no difference between CHR group and FES group in P300 amplitude (P>0.05). θ Oscillation induced power was significantly different among the three groups (P=0.022). The induced power value of FES group was significantly lower than that of control group (P=0.008); and it was marginally lower in CHR group as compared to that of control group (P=0.054). There was no difference between CHR group and FES group (P>0.05). There was trending difference in θ oscillation evoked power among the three groups (P=0.054). The correlation analysis showed that the total and subscale scores of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale in FES group were significantly correlated with the amplitudes of P300 at Cz and Pz electrodes (P<0.05). Conclusion • There are significant abnormalities in the amplitude of auditory P300 and θ oscillation of P300 in both CHR and FES patients; however, the change in CHR patients is less severe than that of FES patients. The impaired θ oscillation of P300 in CHR patients is limited to induced power, but evoked power is not impaired.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the influence of duration of untreated psychosis (DUP)on cognition and social function in first-episode drug-na?ve schizophrenia. Methods Ninety-three first-episode drug-na?ve schizophrenic were enrolled as the schizophrenia group and 93 normal people served as the control group. The Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS) were used to assess the degree of mental symptoms. The Matrics Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) was used to evaluate the cognitive function. Personal and Social Performance Scale (PSP) and the Global Assessment Function Scale (GAF) were used to evaluate the social function. Result There were significant differences in scores of Trail Marking Test, Symbol Coding test, Category Fluency test, Stroop color word test, Continuous Performance Test, Spatial Span test, Brief-Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised (HVLT-R), Brief-Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised (BVMT-R) and Maze test between the schizophrenia group and the control group (all P<0.05). There were significant differences in scores of GAF and PSP between the schizophrenia group and the control group (all P<0.05). DUP was negatively related to the score of HVLT-R2 (r=-0.265, P=0.010) or BVMT-R3 (r=-0.328, P=0.001). DUP was negatively related to the scores of GAF score(r=-0.292,P=0.005)or PSP score(r=-0.397,P<0.001). Conclusion There are social function impairment and a wide range of cognitive function impairment in the first-episode drug-na?ve schizophrenic. The length of the DUP is associated with the severity of the social functional and cognitive functional impairment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between the serum concentration of IL-6,S100β,NT-3 and the cognitive functions in first-episode schizophrenia characterized by positive or negative symptoms.Methods44 first-episode schizophrenic patients characterized by positive symptoms (positive group),36 first-episode schizophrenic patients characterized by negative symptoms (negative group) and 50 healthy controls (controls) were collected.The serum levels of IL-6,S100β and NT-3 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The systematic evaluation tool-MCCB was applied to assess cognitive function in patients and controls.ResultsNT-3 serum levels in positive or negative groups were lower than those in controls and the differences were significant((118.39±37.50) ng/L,(112.55±32.29) ng/L vs (141.18±29.67) ng/L) (P<0.01).IL-6 and S100β serum levels in positive or negative groups were higher than those in controls and the differences were statistically significant((5.74±1.00)ng/L,(5.07±1.17)ng/L vs (4.23±0.91)ng/L),((132.98±46.71)ng/L,(124.99±43.14)ng/L vs (103.63±31.57)ng/L)(P<0.01).IL-6 serum levels in the positive group ((5.07±1.17)ng/L) were lower than those in the negative group ((5.74±0.99)ng/L) and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).In MCCB test,the TMT scores in patients characterize by positive symptoms or patients characterize by negative symptoms were higher than those in healthy control group (P<0.01).BACS SC,HVLT-R WMS-Ⅲ,SS,NAB,BVMT-R,CF in patients characterize by positive symptoms or by negative symptoms were lower than those in healthy control group(P<0.01).There were no statistical difference in the MCCB scores between the patients with positive symptoms and negative symptoms.In positive group,there was a positive correlation between the IL-6 serum concentration and the general symptom scores in PANSS (P<0.05).In positive group,NT-3 serum concentration was positively correlated with the general symptom scores or total scores of PANSS (P<0.05).BVMT-R scores in MCCB were also positively correlated with IL-6 or NT-3 serum concentration in positive group (P<0.05).ConclusionThe impairment of part of cognitive functions for schizophrenic patients may be related to the serum protein factors.There may be different in pathophysiology between the first-episode schizophrenic patients characterized by positive symptoms and those characterized by negative symptoms.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of plasma neuropeptide Y (NPY)and oxytocin (OXT) and the mRNA level of OXT gene in first-episode schizophrenia (FES) patients and healthy controls (HC).Methods The plasma concentration of NPY and OXT in 55 FES patients and 33 HC were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the mRNA level of OXT gene were performed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR).Results The NPY levels in FES patients ((1386.88±254.57) pg/ml) were significantly higher than that in HC ((1 140.62±266.63)pg/ml)(P<0.01),and both the males and females in FES patients ((1 489.97±231.06)pg/ml and (1 279.97±236.30) pg/ml) were higher than their counterparts in HC ((1 305.40 ± 238.80) pg/ml and (965.55 ±165.45) pg/ml) (P<0.05,P<0.01).The OXT level in FES patients ((553.26± 180.49) pg/ml) was lower than that in HC ((696.27±280.77) pg/ml) with significant difference (P<0.05),especially the females FES patients ((597.49±178.63)pg/ml vs (785.51±329.60)pg/ml);but the mRNA expression of OXT gene in FES patients (0.2075 (0.1653,0.3388)) were significantly higher than that in HC (0.1615 (0.1321,0.2200)) (P<0.05),and there were no differences between the females of the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion The FES patients presented abnormal expression of NPY and OXT,and the concentration changes of plasma NPY and OXT will provide referential significance for the diagnosis of schizophrenia(SZ).
