Morris A, Reed T, McBride G, Chen J. Dietary interventions to improve metabolic health in schizophrenia: A systematic literature review of systematic reviews. Schizophr Res 2024; 270:372-382. [PMID: 38971015 DOI: 10.1016/j.schres.2024.06.056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/08/2024]
Abstract
AIM This review of systematic reviews synthesised evidence on the impact of dietary interventions on anthropometric and biochemical measures associated with schizophrenia and metabolic syndrome. Secondly, an aim to identify intervention elements associated with greater dietary adherence and behaviour change. METHODS Five databases were searched from 2000-March 2023. Eligible reviews included adults, majority diagnosed with schizophrenia, dietary intervention components and at least one anthropometric or biochemical outcome related to metabolic syndrome. Two independent reviewers performed article selection, data extraction, and quality assessment. RESULTS Seven systematic reviews, consisting of 79 unique primary papers were included. No reviews exclusively examined dietary interventions. Nutrition education and counselling administered alongside physical activity were common. All reviews favoured intervention over the control to reduce body weight, body mass index, and waist circumference. Glycaemic control, blood pressure and triglycerides were not routinely reported with mixed effects following interventions. There was insufficient data to examine any trends for dropout rates, dietary adherence, and behaviour change. There was both low (n = 3/7) and high (n = 4/7) risk of bias and degree of study overlap was very high (16.4 %). The level of evidence was rated as suggestive (n = 2/7), weak (n = 2/7), non-significant (n = 1/7) and ungraded (n = 2/7). CONCLUSION Dietary interventions administered alongside lifestyle therapies can reduce anthropometric measurements for consumers living with schizophrenia and prescribed antipsychotic medications. Higher quality reviews with greater strength and credibility of evidence are required. Uniform reporting of intervention elements is also necessary for cross comparison of efficacious elements and synthesis of evidence at higher levels to advance dietetic practice and inform future policies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Globally, rates of metabolic disorders continue to climb, leading to significant disease morbidity and mortality. Individuals with mental illness are particularly prone to obesity, and some medications, such as antipsychotics, may increase the risk for metabolic disorders. The American Psychiatric Association and the American Diabetes Association recommend that patients taking antipsychotic medications receive regular screening for metabolic disorders. This study examined hospital and community factors associated with screening these patients for such disorders. METHODS The authors combined Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) hospital-level data on screening for metabolic disorders among patients with an antipsychotic prescription with community data, including urbanization classification, social vulnerability, and metabolic disease presence and risk factors. Data were merged at the county level and evaluated with a nonparametric multivariate regression model. RESULTS The CMS data set included 1,497 U.S. hospitals with data on screening for metabolic disorders among patients with an antipsychotic prescription. Screening rates varied by type of facility; acute care and critical access hospitals outperformed freestanding psychiatric facilities (p<0.001). No other variables examined in the multivariate model were associated with screening for metabolic disorders. CONCLUSIONS Despite common resource limitations, screening for metabolic disorders may be driven more by logistics and less by time, finances, or a community's primary care network. Identifying the specific logistical challenges of freestanding psychiatric facilities could aid in the development of targeted interventions to improve the rates of screening for and treatment of not only metabolic disorders but also other common comorbid conditions.

Influence of antipsychotic medications on hyperlipidemia risk in patients with schizophrenia: evidence from a population-based cohort study and in vitro hepatic lipid homeostasis gene expression. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1137977. [PMID: 37425327 PMCID: PMC10324036 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1137977] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Schizophrenia increases the risk of mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. However, the correlation between antipsychotics (APs) and CVD remains controversial. Hyperlipidemia is a significant risk factor for CVD. Methods We conducted a nationwide population-based retrospective cohort study to investigate the effects of APs on the risk of hyperlipidemia and lipid homeostasis gene expression. We used data from the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database of Taiwan on new-onset schizophrenia patients and a comparison cohort without schizophrenia. We used a Cox proportional hazards regression model to analyze the differences in hyperlipidemia development between the two cohorts. Furthermore, we examined the effects of APs on the hepatic expression of lipid homeostasis-related genes. Results After adjusting for potential interrelated confounding factors, the case group (N = 4,533) was found to have a higher hyperlipidemia risk than the control cohort (N = 4,533) [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR), 1.30, p < 0.001]. Patients with schizophrenia without APs had a significantly higher risk of hyperlipidemia (aHR, 2.16; p < 0.001). However, patients receiving APs had a significantly lower risk of hyperlipidemia than patients not receiving APs (all aHR ≤ 0.42, p < 0.001). First-generation antipsychotics (FGAs) induce the expression of hepatic lipid catabolism genes in an in vitro model. Discussion Patients with schizophrenia had a higher risk of hyperlipidemia than controls; however, compared with non-treated patients, AP users had a lower risk of hyperlipidemia. Early diagnosis and management of hyperlipidemia may help prevent CVD.

Abstract
Metabolic dysfunctions have been reported in patients diagnosed with severe mental illnesses who are undergoing treatment with antipsychotics, especially second-generation agents. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2Is) and glucagon-like peptide receptor agonists are new-generation antidiabetics whose favourable effects in the treatment of diabetes mellitus in the non-psychiatric population may raise interest in their use in patients presenting with severe mental illnesses and metabolic comorbidities possibly related to the use of antipsychotics. The objectives of this review were to investigate the evidence to support the use of SGLT2Is in this population and to find the most important aspects that need to be addressed by future research. A total of one preclinical trial, two guideline-format clinical recommendations, one systematic review and one case report were found, and their conclusions were analysed. The results support the following conclusions: i) SGLT2Is may be combined with metformin in selected cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus in the context of antipsychotic treatment, as they have been associated with favourable metabolic effects; and ii) data for the recommendation of SGLT2Is as second-line treatment in patients with diabetes mellitus who are also treated with olanzapine or clozapine are supported by very limited preclinical and clinical evidence. Further high-quality, large-scale research is needed in the field of the management of metabolic dysfunctions in patients with severe psychiatric illnesses who undergo treatment with second-generation antipsychotics.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a serious disease in patients with schizophrenia; it is necessary to evaluate the characteristics and influencing factors of MS to provide reliable evidence for the management of schizophrenia. Patients with schizophrenia treated in our hospital from January 1, 2018, to March 31, 2021, were selected. The characteristics and treatment details of MS and no-MS patients were evaluated. Pearson correlation analyses were applied for analyzing MS and related characteristics. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the risk factors of MS in patients with schizophrenia. A total of 465 patients with schizophrenia were included, the incidence of MS in patients with schizophrenia was 18.06%. Pearson correlation analyses had found that age (r = 0.621), waist circumference (r = 0.744), body mass index (r = 0.691), diabetes (r = 0.598), course of disease (r = 0.504), triglyceride (r = 0.532), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r = -0.518), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r = 0.447), and total cholesterol (r = 0.523) were correlated with MS (all P < .05). Logistic regression analyses showed that age ≥55 years (odds ratio [OR]: 2.012, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.425-3.196), waist circumference ≥80 cm (OR: 1.944, 95% CI: 1.081-3.172), body mass index ≥24.5 kg/m2 (OR: 2.451, 95% CI: 1.825-3.108), diabetes (OR: 2.301, 95% CI: 1.944-2.881), course of disease ≥15 years (OR: 1.804, 95% CI: 1.236-2.845), triglyceride ≥1.5 mmol/L (OR: 2.032, 95% CI: 1.614-3.079), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ≤0.8 mmol/L (OR: 1.226, 95% CI: 1.102-1.845), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ≥2 mmol/L (OR: 1.759, 95% CI: 1.236-1.987), and total cholesterol ≥4.5 mmol/L (OR: 1.664, 95% CI: 1.422-1.852) were the risk factors of MS in patients with schizophrenia (all P < .05). MS is very common in patients with schizophrenia, which may be associated with many possible risk factors, and early interventions and nursing care targeted at those influencing factors are needed to improve the prognosis of schizophrenia.

Abstract
Background Obesity is very common in patients with schizophrenia. We aimed to evaluate the influencing factors of obesity in community patients with deficit schizophrenia, to provide implication for schizophrenia management in community. Methods We selected patients with deficit schizophrenia who lived in 10 communities in our city from March 1 to June 30, 2021. The characteristics of included schizophrenia patients were evaluated and analyzed. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to evaluate the obesity and related characteristics. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to assess the risk factors of obesity in patients with schizophrenia. Results A total of 284 patients with schizophrenia were included, the incidence of obesity in patients with schizophrenia was 56.70%. gender (r = 0.619), waist circumference (r = 0.644), BMI (r = 0.891), diabetes (r = 0.698), FG (r = 0.582), triglyceride (r = 0.618), HDL-C (r = −0.644), LDL-C (r = 0.583), apolipoprotein B (r = 0.595), and PANSS score (r = 0.813) were all correlated with the obesity in patients with schizophrenia (all p < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that female (OR 2.129, 95% CI 1.615–3.022), waist circumference ≥ 90 cm (OR 3.814, 95% CI 2.778 ~ 4.312), diabetes (OR 2.856, 95% CI 1.905 ~ 3.448), FG ≥ 88 mg/dL (OR 1.551, 95% CI 1.284 ~ 2.183), triglyceride ≥ 160 mg/dL (OR 1.804, 95% CI 1.236–2.845), HDL-C ≤ 0.8 mmol/L (OR 2.032, 95% CI 1.614–3.079), LDL-C ≥ 2.0 mmol/L (OR 1.926, 95% CI 1.442–2.041) and apolipoprotein B ≥ 0.70 g/L (OR 2.119, 95% CI 1.658–2.873) were the risk factors of obesity in patients with schizophrenia (all p < 0.05). Conclusions The obesity rate of patients with deficit schizophrenia in the community is high, and there are many associated risk factors. Early intervention targeted on those risk factors are warranted to reduce the obesity in schizophrenia patients.

Abstract
This is a descriptive study conducted to determine the prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) in Schizophrenia patients and identify the effects of hopelessness and some variables on MetS. The study was conducted at the Psychiatry Clinic of a university hospital in Turkey between May and August 2020 with 105 schizophrenia patients receiving treatment as inpatients. The data of the study were collected by a Personal Information Form, a Physiological Measurements Form and (BHS). The data were analyzed by using SPSS 25. The mean age of the patients was 35.31 ± 9.07, their mean duration of disease was 11.35 ± 9.07 years, and 60.0% of the patients were using atypical antipsychotics as their latest drug treatment. 42.9% of the patients had MetS, while the mean hopelessness level of those with MetS was 10.84 ± 3.81. It was determined that hopelessness levels and some sociodemographic (age) and clinical variables significantly predicted the MetS status in the schizophrenia patients.
