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

The following thesis discusses aspects of risk management within a dynamic framework. It focuses on risk management with people with schizophrenia, as they are considered to be at more risk than the general population both of harming others and harming themselves.

People with a diagnosis other than schizophrenia, such as schizoaffective disorder, are not included in the review.

Abstract:
Schizophrenia is a debilitating psychiatric disorder with a prevalence of around 1% worldwide. It is an extraordinarily complex syndrome, which encompasses multiple psychological domains leading to the impairment of a range of symptoms. These symptoms are categorised as positive symptoms, negative symptoms and cognitive deficits. The profile of cognitive deficits is broad and severe, and is likely to be present in most, if not all patients. Despite cognitive enhancement being recognised as an important treatment target in schizophrenia, the discovery of an effective treatment has been met with

Abstract Schizophrenia is a complex mental health disorder and its etiology can be investigated based on different theoretical prerequisites.

Schizophrenia can be seen also as a progressive disorder and a continuum of symptomatology from personality traits (schizotypy) to full-blown schizophrenia.

While the onset of psychosis commonly occurs in early adulthood, cognitive deficits can be present earlier. Exposure to risk factors during adolescence, such as stress, is hypothesized to precipitate the onset of psychosis. Recent findings suggest stress may impact cognition

Abstract:
博士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>護理學研究所<br>93<br>Background: Psychiatric inpatients’ aggressive acts can occur frequently and are recognized as a significant problem in psychiatric settings. Understanding of aggressive acts in clinical settings is still incomplete and the clinical care of aggressive acts remains unsatisfactory. It is therefore crucial to establish objective measures and to develop insights into the heterogeneity and related risk factors of aggressive acts, for improvement in the management and prevention of aggressive acts. Objective: The purpose of this study has a many-fold intention depicte

Efficacy and drug safety were assessed on days 0, 14, 28, and 42. Therefore, the data structure is a longitudinal dependent data. We have published 20 papers to explore the relationship between the treatment effects of schizophrenia and some potential prognostic/risk factors. Those factors can be classified into three major areas: genes, disease related factors and patients’ personal characteristics. Effic

It is a devastating mental illness that impairs mental and social functioning. Clozapine is effective in treating not only the positive symptoms of schizophrenia, but also in reducing negative symptoms and cognitive deficits. Several studies have reported significant weight gain with clozapine and the largest weight gains seen with antipsychotic drug and had a significantly higher mean BMI value and rate of obesity than patients treated with other SGAs.

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>臨床醫學研究所<br>96<br>Objective: Obesity and diabetes mellitus are common side effects during antipsychotics treatment. These side effects may predispose cardiovascular diseases and decrease antipsychotics compliance in schizophrenic patients. Higher prevalence of metabolic diseases in schizophrenic patients was frequently reported in many countries. However, there are not many studies of the prevalence of metabolic diseases in community patients in Taiwan. Different effects on metabolic disease among various antipsychotics have been broadly discussed. However, clinical risk factors
