Schizophrenia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Study on the Optimal Scheme of Acupuncture Treatment for Schizophrenia-related Central Obesity
This clinical trial aims to test the effect of acupuncture in patients with schizophrenia-related central obesity. The main question it aims to answer is: • The effect, safety, and maintenance of acupuncture on schizophrenia-related central obesity. Participants will receive acupuncture treatment on purpose acupoints, acupuncture on acupoint peripheries, or fake acupuncture treatment on purpose acupoints for 20 weeks. And they need three follow-up visits during the treatment period and two follow-up visits after treatment. Researchers will compare the waist circumstance of these three groups to see if the purpose acupoints are valid for schizophrenia-related central obesity.
