Filter by:Metacognitive training (MCT) for schizophrenia has been used in several countries, but its efficacy remains unclear. MCT is a program group that consists of changing the cognitive infrastructure of delusions. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the Portuguese version of the metacognitive training programme and its effects on psychotic symptoms, insight to the disorder and functionality
To examine the effects of calligraphy activity on symptoms, attention, emotion, and quality of life in people with schizophrenia. We hypothesized that through a six-month intervention using calligraphy activity, people with schizophrenia will have their symptoms decreased, attention improved, emotion enhanced, and quality of life increased. This study will adopt single-blind, randomized controlled trial, and 160 people with schizophrenia will be recruited in this study. They will be randomly assigned to either a calligraphy activity group (treatment group; n=80) or an occupational activity group (control group; n=80). Participants will complete assessments at pretest, posttest, and 3-month follow-up using the following instruments: Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), Chu's Attention Test, The Taiwanese version of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-T), WHO questionnaire on the Quality of Life, Brief Form (WHOQOL-BREF), and Chinese Depression Anxiety Stress Scales(DASS21).
This study investigates whether visual attention can be improved in individuals with schizophrenia by stimulating the brain via transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS).
This study is a phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, non-inferiority trial designed to assess the efficacy and safety of Brexpiprazole in the Treatment of Adults With Acute Schizophrenia. A total of approximately 370 subjects will be included in the study, and randomized to Brexpiprazole (2~4 mg/d) or Aripiprazole (10~20 mg/d) in a 1:1 ratio.
Due to the pandemic, this study was modified from a randomized clinical trial to test the feasibility, initial efficacy, and mechanisms of action of our PTSC-S intervention to a feasibility and acceptability test of our intervention when delivered via telehealth in a single group, within-subjects design.
This is a two-part trial. The primary objective of Part A is to estimate the ratio of geometric means of pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters and their within-subject variability for the 300mg quetiapine tablet formulation A and the 300mg quetiapine tablet formulation B compared to 300mg Seroquel. The primary objective of Part B is to estimate the ratio of geometric means of PK parameters and their within-subject variability for the selected tablet formulation from Part A of 25mg quetiapine compared to 25mg Seroquel.
The investigators plan to investigate the effect of enhancement on working memory (WM) in patients of chronic schizophrenia and determine the predictive factors of effective treatment.
This is the long-term open label extension (OLE) of the study PRISMA-3 (NCT03160521). Those patients who complete participation in the main segment of the study (double blind) together with other clinically stable not previously enrolled (de novo patients) may opt to participate in this extension segment, where they will receive active Risperidone ISM® (75 mg or 100 mg)under open-label conditions every four weeks for approximately 12 months.
To investigate the treatment effect of intermittent theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation on symptomatic relief of schizophrenia patients, and the underlying neural mechanism by functional MRI and the resting electroencephalogram
This study was conducted to explore the effect on social functionality of the psychoeducation program organized to guide individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia to identifying and recognize emotions in facial expressions. half of participants were assessed the psychoeducation program. other half of participants were used only measurement tests.
