Schizophrenia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Glucose as a Mediator of Self-control Performances in Patients With Schizophrenia: A Randomized Controlled Study
The research aims to investigate the relationship between self-control ability and blood
glucose level in schizophrenic patients. The main purpose of the present study is to explore
whether the close relationship of blood glucose and self-regulatory strength observed in
healthy individuals, is applicable to schizophrenic patients. More specifically, the current
study aims
- to investigate whether the exertion of self-control reduces blood glucose,
- to examine whether low level of blood glucose deteriorates subsequent self-control
performances
- to examine whether restoring the glucose level eliminates these impairments, in
schizophrenic patients.
