Abstract:

Objective: To characterize the epidemiology of schizophrenia. Method: Narrative literature review. Results: Each year 1 in 10 000 adults (12 to 60 years of age) develops schizophrenia. Based on a restrictive and precise definition of the diagnosis and using standardized assessment methods and large, representative populations, the incidence rates appear stable across countries and cultures and over time, at least for the last 50 years. Schizophrenic patients are not born into ecological and social disadvantage. The uneven distribution of prevalence rates is a result of social selection: an ear

Abstract:

Reasons are given why the hospital diagnosis of schizophrenia may be accurate enough for the proper study of certain aspects of its epidemiology. Studies in the seasonality of admissions and of births in schizophrenic patients have produced consistent results in different countries and at different times. The results are summarized, and causal hypotheses based on them are discussed. The idea that schizophrenia is a relatively recent disease is compatible with these hypotheses.

Abstract:

This Thesis describes the epidemiology of schizophrenia and related disorders in the defined catchment area of Camberwell, SE London, UK, over the period 1965 to 1984. Cases were ascertained through the comprehensive Camberwell Cumulative Psychiatric Case Register. All first-contact patients with a Register diagnosis of any non-affective non-organic psychotic illness were included in the study. Diagnostic uniformity was ensured by rediagnosis of all cases (n=531) using the computerised OCCPI system, which facilitates rediagnosis according to a wide range of diagnostic criteria.

Abstract:

Background: Schizophrenia is a chronic, debilitating mental disorder characterized by positive (e.g., hallucinations, delusions) and negative (e.g., catatonia, flat affect) signs and symptoms. Many studies suggest that individuals born in winter or spring months are at increased risk for schizophrenia. Study Objectives: 1) To determine whether season of birth affects risk for schizophrenia in the Irish Study of High Density Schizophrenia Families (ISHDSF). 2) To examine, by computer simulation, power to detect genetic associations with schizophrenia under a variety of conditions and using diff

Abstract:

Schizophrenia is an illness causing impairment in thinking and functioning in many realms of everyday life. It is considered one of the most disabling of mental illnesses. This thesis considers the impact of schizophrenia in Ontario, including elevated mortality, degree of disability, economic impact. Some known risk factors for schizophrenia are increasingly common in Ontario, such as urban exposure, and a history of immigration. The impact of the illness in Ontario makes schizophrenia a good candidate for surveillance and case registry in this province. This thesis reviews the required eleme

Abstract:

Epidemiology can help us understand who is at risk for developing a disorder, what may happen to them, and perhaps even why people get the disorder to begin with. In this chapter, we will review the incidence and prevalence of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders, as well as factors affecting such rates. Risk factors for psychosis include socio-demographics (e.g., gender, age, migrant status, class), predisposing factors (e.g., season of birth, perinatal trauma), and precipitating factors (e.g., substance use, psychosocial stress). We will highlight controversial issues such as trauma

Abstract:

Treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) is a disabling psychotic disorder that affects approximately 30% of those diagnosed with schizophrenia. In a significant proportion (about 70%) of patients with TRS, their illness is treatment-resistant from onset (early or primary treatment resistance), whilst, in the remainder, treatment resistance develops during the course of illness (late or secondary treatment resistance). TRS is associated with reduced quality of life and increased social and economic burden. Multiple sociodemographic, clinical, and biological risk factors have been assessed in re

Abstract:

Schizophrenia spectrum disorders and affective psychoses are jointly considered in this chapter in light of the ongoing controversy concerning the diagnostic boundary between these conditions. Emil Kraepelin first separated schizophrenia (which he named dementia praecox) from manic-depressive insanity based on the deteriorating course of illness in schizophrenia, and the convention is still upheld in the DSM-5. A wealth of evidence suggests that this dichotomy does not mirror clinical reality. This chapter reviews the history of the diagnostic concepts underlying the grouping and separation of
