Outcome in males with first-episode schizophrenia: 7-year follow-up
Original language description
Objectives. The early course of schizophrenia is highly variable. We assessed outcomes of patients with first-episode schizophrenia at 7-year follow-up. Methods. Consecutively hospitalized male patients were included if they were experiencing their firstadmission for first-episode schizophrenia and were reassessed at 1-, 4- and 7-year follow-ups. The psychopathology was evaluated using the PANSS, relative decrease of PANSS and remission status based on severity of core symptoms. Results. Forty-four of76 patients were reassessed three times. At the end of index hospitalization 73% of patients achieved remission; however, after 1, 4 and 7 years, the percentage had dropped to 50, 50 and 52%, respectively. When compared post-hoc there was no significantdifference in PANSS and response to treatment between remitters and non-remitters during the index hospitalization; however, a significant difference in psychopathology emerged first after 1, 4 and 7 years.
