Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and sleep quality following a supervised combined exercise (EX) program compared to a Treatment-As-Usual (TAU) and to analyze the relationship between the differences in cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and HRQoL domains in people with schizophrenia (SZ). METHODS The SZ (n = 112, 41.3 ± 10.4 year) was randomly assigned into a TAU control group (n = 53) or EX-group (n = 59, 3 days/week). The 36-item Short-Form Health Survey questionnaire assessed HRQoL and the sleep quality analysis (accelerometry). RESULTS After the intervention (20 weeks), physical functioning (∆ = 12.9%), general health (∆ = 15.3%), mental health (∆ = 8.3%), physical component summary (PCS) (∆ = 5.1%), and sleep efficiency (∆ = 1.9%) increased (p < 0.05) in the EX, with no significant changes in the TAU for any domains studied. There were significant differences between groups whose EX showed improvements (p < 0.05) compared to TAU in physical functioning, general health, PCS, and sleep efficiency. A greater CRF was associated with better values in physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, and PCS after the exercise program in SZ. CONCLUSIONS A 20-week supervised combined exercise intervention program for SZ increased sleep efficiency and physical functioning, general and mental health, and PCS scores. This could lead to a critical HRQoL change from how they were to how they should be. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03509597.

Social support and sleep quality in people with schizophrenia living in the community: the mediating roles of anxiety and depression symptoms. Front Public Health 2024; 12:1414868.

Abstract
Introduction Research has demonstrated that higher social support is associated with better psychological health, quality of life, cognition, activities of daily living, and social participation, but the relationship between social support and sleep quality remains unknown. This study aims to investigate the mediating effects of anxiety and depression in the relationship between social support and sleep among community-dwelling patients with schizophrenia. Method Purposive sampling was used to collect face-to-face data from 1,107 community-dwelling patients with schizophrenia in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China, between April and July 2023. The Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) was used to assess sleep quality; the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale (GAD-7) was utilized to evaluate anxiety symptoms; and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was employed to assess depressive symptoms. The mediating effect of anxiety and depression symptoms was assessed using the bootstrap method via Model 6 (Serial multiple mediator model) of the SPSS PROCESS macro. Results Among the 1,107 participants, the proportions of people with schizophrenia experiencing anxiety, depressive symptoms, and poor sleep quality were 22.8, 37.7, and 42.1%, respectively. Mediation analyses indicated that although social support had no direct effect on sleep quality, anxiety and depressive symptoms fully mediated the relationship between social support and sleep quality. Conclusion Patients with schizophrenia experience low levels of social support and poor sleep quality. To enhance the sleep quality of individuals with schizophrenia, all levels of society (government, medical institutions, and communities) must pay more attention to mental health. Implementing diverse intervention measures to strengthen social support and improve symptoms of anxiety and depression should be considered. This approach may potentially lead to an improvement in sleep quality among individuals with schizophrenia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Insomnia is a common comorbidity in schizophrenia. Increasing cross-sectional evidence suggests an association between insomnia and suicidal ideation (SI) and symptom severity in schizophrenia. We investigated longitudinal associations over 3 months between insomnia, suicidal ideation, and symptom severity in a group of patients with chronic schizophrenia. METHOD We performed a secondary analysis of data from n = 305 participants from the Preventing Relapse Oral Antipsychotics Compared to Injectables Evaluating Efficacy (PROACTIVE) schizophrenia trial using regression models. RESULTS The prevalence of moderate-to-severe insomnia was 17.7 % at baseline and 13.6 % at 3 months, respectively. The prevalence of SI was 22 % at baseline and 22.5 % at 3 months. After controlling for potential confounders, improved SI from baseline to 3 months was associated with both baseline moderate-to-severe insomnia (OR = 3.81, 95 % CI 1.11-13.12, p = 0.034) and improvement in insomnia (OR = 3.50, 95 % CI 1.23-9.92, p = 0.013). Worsening SI from baseline to 3 months was associated with worsening insomnia (OR = 3.50, 95 % CI 1.23-9.92, p = 0.013), but not baseline insomnia. Improvement in BPRS total score from baseline to 3 months was associated with improvement in insomnia (β = 0.17, p = 0.029), but not baseline insomnia. CONCLUSION Insomnia is common in patients with chronic schizophrenia and insomnia showed significant associations with SI and psychopathology. Clinicians should consider insomnia when assessing suicide risk in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pre-diagnostic stages of psychotic illnesses, including 'clinical high risk' (CHR), are marked by sleep disturbances. These sleep disturbances appear to represent a key aspect in the etiology and maintenance of psychotic disorders. We aimed to examine the relationship between self-reported sleep dysfunction and attenuated psychotic symptoms (APS) on a day-to-day basis. METHODS Seventy-six CHR young people completed the Experience Sampling Methodology (ESM) component of the European Union Gene-Environment Interaction Study, collected through PsyMate® devices, prompting sleep and symptom questionnaires 10 times daily for 6 days. Bayesian multilevel mixed linear regression analyses were performed on time-variant ESM data using the brms package in R. We investigated the day-to-day associations between sleep and psychotic experiences bidirectionally on an item level. Sleep items included sleep onset latency, fragmentation, and quality. Psychosis items assessed a range of perceptual, cognitive, and bizarre thought content common in the CHR population. RESULTS Two of the seven psychosis variables were unidirectionally predicted by previous night's number of awakenings: every unit increase in number of nightly awakenings predicted a 0.27 and 0.28 unit increase in feeling unreal or paranoid the next day, respectively. No other sleep variables credibly predicted next-day psychotic symptoms or vice-versa. CONCLUSION In this study, the relationship between sleep disturbance and APS appears specific to the item in question. However, some APS, including perceptual disturbances, had low levels of endorsement amongst this sample. Nonetheless, these results provide evidence for a unidirectional relationship between sleep and some APS in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESIS Insomnia occurs frequently in the clinical course of schizophrenia. A growing literature has found associations between insomnia, suicidal ideation and behavior, and psychopathology in schizophrenia. We explored associations between sleep problems, suicidal ideation, and psychopathology in a cohort of patients with first-episode psychosis. STUDY DESIGN We performed a secondary analysis of data for n = 403 subjects with data from the Recovery After an Initial Schizophrenia Episode study using regression models. STUDY RESULTS The prevalence of sleep problems and suicidal ideation at baseline was 57% and 15%, respectively. After controlling for potential confounders, in the study baseline sleep problems were associated with increased odds of suicidal ideation with evidence of a dose-dependent relationship (OR = 2.25, 95% CI 1.15-4.41, P = .018). Over 24 months, sleep problems at any time point were associated with an over 3-fold increased odds of concurrent suicidal ideation (OR = 3.21, 95% CI 1.45-7.14, P = .004). Subjects with persistent sleep problems were almost 14 times more likely to endorse suicidal ideation at least once over the study than those without sleep problems (OR = 13.8, 95% CI 6.5-53.4, P < .001). Sleep problems were also a predictor of higher Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale total (β = 0.13-0.22), positive (β = 0.14-0.25), and general (β = 0.16-0.27) subscale scores at baseline and multiple follow-up visits (P < .01 for each). CONCLUSIONS Sleep problems are highly prevalent and associated with suicidal ideation and greater psychopathology in first-episode psychosis. Formal assessment and treatment of insomnia appear relevant to the clinical care of patients with psychosis as a predictor of suicidal ideation and symptom severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insomnia is common in patients with schizophrenia, which contributes to worsening psychiatric symptoms and suicidality. We aimed to assess the inter-relationships of insomnia and psychopathology with suicidal ideation (SI) among 1407 Chinese patients with chronic schizophrenia via the network approach. METHOD We used Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, Insomnia Severity Index, and Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation to assess psychiatric symptoms, insomnia, and SI, respectively. Lifetime suicidal attempts (SA) were collected. RESULTS (1) The incidence of insomnia, lifetime SI, lifetime SA, and current SI was 13.5% (n = 190), 22.8% (n = 321), 13.5% (n = 190), and 9.7% (n = 136), respectively. (2) Patients with insomnia had worse clinical symptoms and higher suicidal risk. (3) Daytime dysfunction, sleep-related distress, conceptual disorganization, delusions, anxiety, and poor rapport were the core symptoms, while late sleep onset and sleep dissatisfaction emerged as bridge symptoms connecting insomnia and psychopathology. (4) Depressive mood, hallucinations, poor impulse control, guilty feelings, insomnia-related impaired quality of life, and sleep dissatisfaction were directly associated with SI. CONCLUSION Our findings called for formal assessment of insomnia in patients with schizophrenia, which should cover both nocturnal and daytime insomnia symptoms. Targeted interventions for key symptoms may help reduce insomnia, psychiatric symptoms, and SI in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
Objective Potential causal associations between psychiatric disorders and irritable bowel syndrome have been demonstrated in observational studies; however, these studies are susceptible to underlying confounding and reverse causation biases. We aimed to assess the causal effects of psychiatric disorders on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and the potential mediators from a genetic perspective by conducting a Mendelian randomization (MR) study with mediation analysis. Method Genetic instruments associated with psychiatric disorders, potential mediators, and IBS were obtained from large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Three MR methods - the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method, MR-Egger method, and weighted median method, were used to investigate causal association estimates. Heterogeneity among different genetic instrumental variables (IVs) was assessed using Q tests. Additionally, the MR-PRESSO and MR-Pleiotropy methods were used to verify horizontal pleiotropy and detect outliers that might bias the results, which were removed from further analysis. Consequently, we used MR mediation analysis to investigate potential mediators in the causal associations between psychiatric disorders and IBS. Results MR provided evidence of the causal effects of genetically predicted broad depression, major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and schizophrenia on IBS. The results of MR mediation analysis demonstrated that the reduction in acetate levels mediated 12.6% of the effects of broad depression on IBS; insomnia mediated 16.00%, 16.20%, and 27.14% of the effects of broad depression, MDD, and PTSD on IBS, respectively; and the increase in blood β-hydroxybutyrate levels mediated 50.76% of the effects of schizophrenia on IBS. Conclusion Our study confirmed the brain-gut axis involvement and potential modulators in the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorder-induced IBS from a genetic perspective, and suggests potential therapeutic targets for the disrupted brain-gut axis.

Schizophr Res 2023; 262:121-129. [PMID: 37948885 DOI: 10.1016/j.schres.2023.10.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/28/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
Holistic summary measures of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) could provide useful information for screening and/or monitoring high-risk individuals. This study explores the association of baseline HRQoL (AQoL-4D values) with death from natural and external causes (such as suicide, overdose, or accident) in a prevalent cohort over a mean follow-up of 6.9-years. Baseline data were obtained from the 2010 National Survey of High Impact Psychosis (SHIP) and its 2012 sister survey, the North-Metro Survey of High Impact Psychosis. Follow-up data were obtained from the National Deaths Index (to January 18, 2018). Associations between baseline HRQoL (and the 12 individual items of the AQoL-4D) and deaths by cause, stratified by sex were investigated using multivariable Cox Proportional Hazards models, with age used as the time scale. Overall, 7.6 % of the cohort (137 of 1805 people meeting ICD-10 criteria for a psychotic disorder and agreeing to linkage) died, 4.2 % from natural causes (primarily heart disease and cancer) and 3.4 % from external causes. There was an association between low HRQoL (AQoL-4D ≤ 0.20) and mortality due to natural causes, primarily driven by difficulties with mobility and vision in men, and difficulty with household tasks in women. No significant associations were obtained between AQoL-4D utilities and death from external causes. Sleep problems were associated with death from external causes for men only. As people with psychotic disorders experience multiple causes of death with complex associations which are difficult to quantify, monitoring for low HRQoL using the AQoL-4D could be a useful indicator of increased mortality risk in this population. TWITTER: Monitoring for low HRQoL (AQoL-4D ≤ 0.20) could be a useful indicator of increased mortality risk from natural causes in people living with psychotic disorders, with differing but specific items of relevance to men and women.

Abstract
PURPOSE Insomnia is a major public health concern that often occurs in patients with schizophrenia, complicating the treatment and prognosis of patients. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of insomnia and its relationship with cognitive function in Chinese patients with chronic schizophrenia. METHODS We recruited patients with schizophrenia and collected their clinical and demographic data. Insomnia data were collected through a self-reported questionnaire consisting of three questions. The positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) was used to measure psychopathological symptoms, while the repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status (RBANS) was used to measure cognitive performance. RESULTS Of 957 Chinese patients with chronic schizophrenia 20.2% reported having insomnia (193/957). Male patients (107/630, 17.0%) had a lower rate of insomnia than female patients (86/327, 26.3%) (x2 = 11.60, p = 0.001). Patients with insomnia exhibited significantly higher PANSS total score and positive symptom, negative symptom, and general psychopathology scores, but significantly lower RBANS total score, language, attention and delayed memory scores compared to patients without insomnia (all p < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that female sex, high PANSS total score and the use of diazepam were independently associated with insomnia (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Insomnia is relatively common in Chinese patients with chronic schizophrenia. Some demographic data and clinical symptoms are associated with insomnia. Patients with schizophrenia and insomnia perform poorly on cognition tests suggesting that insomnia and cognitive function are closely related in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
Insomnia is a highly prevalent disorder among the population with schizophrenia and has a significant impact on their quality of life. Cognitive behavioural therapies (CBT) have shown effectiveness in the treatment of insomnia in the general population. The aim of this this pilot study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a group intervention led by nurses in an outpatient mental health centre. The group work combined cognitive behavioural and psychoeducational therapeutic interventions to improve insomnia in patients with schizophrenic disorder and their health-related quality of life. This randomized clinical trial included intervention and control groups with follow-up assessments at 6 and 9 months, using the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D) scales. The inclusion criteria were as follows: over 18 years of age, diagnosis of schizophrenia, and a score of >7 on the ISI scale. The total sample was 40 participants. The ISI scale showed a mean difference of 3.63 (CI 95%: 2.02-5.23) (p = 0.000) and 4.10 (CI 95%: 2.45-5.75) (p = 0.000) and a large effect size (F: 28.36; p = 0.000; ηp2: 0.427). Regarding the PSQI scale, the mean difference was 3.00 (CI 95%: 1.53-4.49) (p = 0.000) and 2.30 (CI 95%: 0.85-3.75) (p = 0.000), with a medium effect size (F: 18.31; p = 0.000 ηp2: 0.325). The EQ-VAS scale showed a difference in mean scores between the groups of 10.48 (CI 95%: -19.66--1.29) (p = 0.027). CBT adapted for populations with mental disorders, carried out by nurses, is effective in improving insomnia and health-related quality of life.

Abstract
Insomnia occurs frequently in schizophrenia patients and is often accompanied with severe psychotic symptoms and cognition impairment. Moreover, chronic insomnia is associated with immune alterations. This study explored the correlations between insomnia and clinical manifestations of schizophrenia and analyzed mediation effects of regulatory T cells (Tregs) on these correlations. In a total of 655 chronic schizophrenia patients, 70 persons (10.69%) had an ISI (Insomnia Severity Index) score >7 and were referred to as Insomnia group. Compared to non-Insomnia group, Insomnia group presented more severe psychotic symptoms (assessed by PANSS) and cognitive impairment (assessed by RBANS). The total effect of ISI on PANSS/RBANS total score was not significant due to the mediation effects by Tregs, in which Tregs strongly mediated the effect of ISI on PANSS total score in negative direction but mediated the effect of ISI on RBANS total score in positive direction. Pearson Correlation Coefficient revealed negative correlations between Tregs and PANSS total score or disorganization subscale of PANSS. Positive correlations existed between Tregs and RBANS total score, between Tregs and the subscales of attention, delayed memory, or language of RBANS. These mediation effects of Tregs on insomnia-related psychotic symptoms and cognitive impairment in chronic schizophrenia patients point to a potential therapeutic strategy of modulating Tregs for the patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Insomnia is common in schizophrenia. Insomnia has been associated with suicidal ideation and behavior, as well as greater severity of psychopathology, in schizophrenia. This review performs a meta-analysis of associations between insomnia, suicide, and psychopathology in patients with schizophrenia. RECENT FINDINGS We searched major electronic databases from inception until November 2022 for studies of insomnia, suicide, and psychopathology in patients with schizophrenia. Random effects meta-analysis calculating odds ratios (ORs, for suicide) and effect sizes (ESs, for psychopathology) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were performed. Ten studies met the inclusion criteria, comprising 3428 patients with schizophrenia. Insomnia was associated with a significant increased odds of suicidal ideation (OR = 1.84, 95% CI 1.28-2.65, P < 0.01) and suicide attempt or death (OR = 5.83, 95% CI 1.61-2.96, P < 0.01). Insomnia was also associated with total (ES = 0.16, 95% CI 0.09-0.23, P < 0.01), positive (ES = 0.14, 95% CI 0.08-0.20, P = 0.02), and general (ES = 0.17, 95% CI 0.08-0.27, P < 0.01) psychopathology. In meta-regression analyses, BMI was negatively associated with suicidal ideation. Otherwise, age, sex, and study year were all unrelated to the associations. SUMMARY Insomnia is associated with suicide and psychopathology in schizophrenia. Formal assessment and treatment of insomnia appears relevant to the clinical care of schizophrenia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Insomnia commonly occurs in schizophrenia, and insomnia is associated with suicide risk. Clozapine has anti-suicidal properties and beneficial effects on sleep. We performed a meta-analysis of insomnia in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of patients with schizophrenia treated with clozapine. We hypothesized that compared to clozapine there is an increased odds of insomnia in patients treated with other antipsychotics. METHODS We systematically searched PubMed, PsycINFO, and Web of Science databases. We included RCTs, in English, with data on insomnia in patients with schizophrenia treated with clozapine versus other antipsychotics. Data were pooled using a random effects model. RESULTS Eight RCTs (1952 patients: 922 on clozapine and 1030 on other antipsychotics) met inclusion criteria. Patients treated with other antipsychotics versus clozapine had a significant increased odds of insomnia (22.3 % versus 12.4 %, OR = 2.20, 95 % CI = 1.64-2.94, p < 0.01). Olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, and ziprasidone were each associated with significant increased odds of insomnia compared to clozapine. In meta-regression analyses, clozapine dose, publication year, sex, trial duration, and study quality score were unrelated to the association; however, there was a significant association with age. The observed ORs for insomnia from RCTs were almost perfectly correlated with reported ORs from pharmacovigilance data. CONCLUSION Clozapine is associated with significantly less insomnia compared to other antipsychotics. Findings provide additional evidence for improvement in sleep as a potential pathway underlying clozapine's anti-suicidal properties. A greater mechanistic understanding of this association is needed.

Abstract
Objective Quality of life (QoL) has been always an important way to evaluate the outcomes of schizophrenia, but there have been few previous longitudinal studies and few in middle-income countries. This study aimed to explore the QoL in Chinese patients with schizophrenia treated in primary mental health care and the risk factors of QoL over time. Methods Patients with schizophrenia treated in primary mental health care in rural/regional areas in Luoding, Guangdong, PR China, were evaluated with an extended questionnaire including the Chinese version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL-BREF) at baseline and 2-year follow-up. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were conducted including Generalized Estimated Equation analyses (GEE). Results Four hundred and ninety-one patients with schizophrenia in primary care completed the 2-year follow up evaluation. The QoL physical, environmental, and social relationships domains showed improvement after the 2-year period, but the psychological domain did not. GEE results showed that earlier age of onset, older age, being employed, being unmarried, the thicker waist circumference, less use of clozapine or other SGAs, fewer hospitalizations, more frequent insomnia, more severe depressive and negative symptoms as well as worse treatment insight were independently associated with poor QoL in patients with schizophrenia. Conclusion According to our results, to improve the quality of life of patients with schizophrenia in primary care, we should pay more attention to the treatment of depression, negative and insomnia symptoms of schizophrenia, the choice and dosage of antipsychotic medication and improvement in the treatment compliance. The combined use of educational and behavioral strategies may improve treatment adherence.

Abstract
A relationship appears to exist between dysfunction of brain histamine (HA) and various neuropsychiatric brain disorders. The possible involvement of brain HA in neuropathology has gained attention recently, and its role in many (patho)physiological brain functions including memory, cognition, and sleep-wake cycle paved the way for further research on the etiology of several brain disorders. Histamine H3 receptor (H3R) evidenced in the brains of rodents and humans remains of special interest, given its unique position as a pre- and postsynaptic receptor, controlling the synthesis and release of HA as well as different other neurotransmitters in different brain regions, respectively. Despite several disappointing outcomes for several H3R antagonists/inverse agonists in clinical studies addressing their effectiveness in Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and schizophrenia (SCH), numerous H3R antagonists/inverse agonists showed great potentials in modulating memory and cognition, mood, and sleep-wake cycle, thus suggesting its potential role in neurocognitive and neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, PD, SCH, narcolepsy, and major depression in preclinical rodent models. In this review, we present preclinical applications of selected H3R antagonists/inverse agonists and their pharmacological effects on cognitive impairment, anxiety, depression, and sleep-wake cycle disorders. Collectively, the current review highlights the behavioral impact of developments of H3R antagonists/inverse agonists, aiming to further encourage researchers in the preclinical drug development field to profile the potential therapeutic role of novel antagonists/inverse agonists targeting histamine H3Rs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sex differences in schizophrenia have been noted across domains such as sleep and cognitive function; however, how they interact remains unclear. This study aimed to explore sex differences in the relationship between insomnia and cognitive function in patients with chronic schizophrenia. METHODS 718 schizophrenia patients (480 males and 238 females) and 397 healthy controls were recruited. Insomnia was collected by a questionnaire. Insomnia severity index (ISI) was used to evaluate the severity of insomnia. The clinical symptoms and cognition were assessed with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS), respectively. RESULTS Schizophrenia patients showed significantly lower scores compared to healthy controls on the RBANS total score and four indexes (all p < 0.05). Male patients had a lower rate of insomnia, higher scores on the RBANS visuospatial/constructional, language, and total score than female patients (all P < 0.05). Insomnia patients had lower RBANS immediate memory, language, and total scores than non-insomnia patients, and the results only appeared in female patients (all P < 0.05). In addition, there were significant negative correlations between ISI and RBANS language and delayed memory in male patients, while ISI was significantly negatively correlated with RBANS immediate memory in female patients (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that there are sex differences in insomnia, cognitive performance, and their association in patients with chronic schizophrenia. These sex differences may have important potential clinical significance for the identification, evaluation, and treatment of insomnia in patients with chronic schizophrenia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The consequences and impact of violent behavior in schizophrenia are often serious, and identification of risk factors is of great importance to achieve early identification and effective management. METHODS This follow-up study sampled adult patients with schizophrenia in primary mental health care in a rural area of southern China, in which 491 participants completed a comprehensive questionnaire at baseline and the 2-year follow-up. Sociodemographic, clinical and psychological assessment data were collected from all participants. Paired sample T-Tests and the McNemar Test were performed to examine changes over the follow-up period. Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) were used to analyze the risk factors for violent behavior. RESULTS The results showed that about two in five community-dwelling patients with schizophrenia reported violent behavior in the past year. At follow-up, participants were significantly less employed, had more times of hospitalization, more psychotropic medication, and severer depressive symptoms, but had better health-related quality of life than at baseline. Use of clozapine and better insight into medication decreased the possibility of violent behavior, while more severe positive symptoms, insomnia, as well as use of second-generation antipsychotics other than clozapine, antidepressants and mood stabilizers increased the possibility of violent behavior. CONCLUSIONS Risk evaluation, prevention and management of violence in patients with schizophrenia are demanded in primary mental health care.

Physical activity levels associated with insomnia and depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic schizophrenia. Front Psychiatry 2022; 13:1045398. [PMID: 36683978 PMCID: PMC9852857 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2022.1045398] [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: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous evidence suggested that physical activity had beneficial effects on psychopathological symptoms, insomnia, or depressive symptoms in people with schizophrenia. This study investigated the association between physical activity levels and insomnia and depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly hospitalized patients with chronic schizophrenia (CS). METHODS 179 participants were enrolled. We used the 30-item Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS-30) to assess the psychopathological symptoms. We used the Insomnia Severity Index scale (ISI) and 17-item Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-17) to evaluate insomnia and depressive symptoms. Daily physical activity time less than 30 min, within 30-60 min, and more than 60 min were defined as physical inactivity, moderate physical activity, and vigorous physical activity, respectively. The Chi-square test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Mann-Whitney U-test were applied for categorical, continuous, and non-normal distribution variables, respectively. The Pearson or Spearman's correlation analyses were utilized to examine the association between physical activity levels, ISI total scores, HAMD total scores, and socio-demographic and clinical variables. Finally, socio-demographic variables with a P-value < 0.05 in the comparison between insomnia/depressive group and non-insomnia/depressive group were considered for inclusion in binary logistic regression analysis to determine the relationship between physical activity levels and insomnia or depressive symptoms. RESULTS The ISI total scores (r = -0.247, P = 0.001) and HAMD total scores (r = -0.312, P < 0.001) were negatively correlated with physical activity levels. Logistic regression analysis revealed that older age, higher depressive factor scores, and lower physical activity level were influential factors of insomnia symptoms in CS patients (P < 0.05). In addition, vigorous physical activity (compared with physical inactivity) and higher negative and depressive factor scores were independently associated with depressive symptoms in CS patients (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Physical activity levels were influential factors in comorbid insomnia and depressive symptoms in CS patients. Given the benefits of physical activity, it should be strengthened as a routine adjunct to clinical treatment or psychiatric care so as to improve the physical and mental health of patients with psychiatric symptoms.

Abstract
Objective People with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are at increased risk of having comorbid somatic illness. This is partly due to lack of physical activity, which may originate from childhood. Sleep disturbances are associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. We aimed to assess physical activity and sleep in children at familial high risk of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder and population-based controls. Methods This study is part of The Danish High Risk and Resilience Study-VIA 11. Children aged 11 born to parents with schizophrenia (FHR-SZ) (N = 133), bipolar disorder (FHR-BP) (N = 84), or controls (C) (N = 150) were assessed by accelerometry for an average of 6.9 days. Results High-intensity physical activity was significantly lower in children at FHR-SZ and FHR-BP compared to controls, (mean hours per day for FHR-SZ: 0.29, SD 0.19, for FHR-BP: 0.27, SD 0.24, and for controls 0.38, SD 0.22, P = <.001). Sleep did not differ between the groups. Conclusion Children at FHR-SZ or FHR-BP had less physical activity compared to controls. Our study highlights a research area that reveals a hitherto unexplored disadvantage of being born to parents with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Further research is needed to enhance better understanding of causal pathways and consequences of reduced physical activity in children with FHR-SZ and FHR-BP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Insomnia occurs frequently in the clinical course of schizophrenia. A growing literature has found associations between insomnia, suicidal ideation, and psychopathology in patients with schizophrenia. We explored these associations in a cross-sectional study of a large sample of patients with chronic schizophrenia in China. We hypothesized that insomnia would be associated with an increased odds of current suicidal ideation and higher current psychopathology scores. METHODS We recruited 328 inpatients with chronic schizophrenia, all of whom were prescribed psychotropics. We investigated relationships between current insomnia, suicidal ideation over the past two weeks, and current psychopathology for subjects using regression models. RESULTS After controlling for multiple potential confounding factors, current insomnia was an indicator of a significant, 2.5-fold increased odds of suicidal ideation (OR = 2.56, 95% CI 1.10-5.95, p = 0.029). Insomnia was also a significant indicator of lifetime suicide attempt (OR = 1.07) as well as higher Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale total (β = 0.134, p = 0.017), positive (β = 0.154, p = 0.006) and general (β = 0.145, p = 0.010) subscale scores. CONCLUSION Insomnia is associated with suicidal ideation, lifetime suicide attempt, and higher psychopathology scores in inpatients with chronic schizophrenia. Formal assessment of insomnia appears relevant to the clinical care of patients with schizophrenia as an indicator of suicidal thinking and behavior, depression, and symptom severity.

Abstract
AIM Interoception is the ability to sense internal bodily changes and research indicates that it may play a role in the development of mental illness. In recent years, preliminary evidence has shown that interoception is impaired in people with psychosis. Interoceptive sensibility, a meta-cognitive aspect of interoception, has never been studied across the psychosis continuum. The present study aimed at assessing interoceptive sensibility in youth with psychotic-like experiences. METHOD We invited a sample of young adults (N = 609; age 19-21 years) to complete an online survey that included a measure of interoceptive sensibility (the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness-2) and the Community Assessment of Psychotic Experiences-Positive Scale -15 (CAPE-P15). Using the recommended cutoff for the CAPE-P15, the overall sample was divided into two groups (high/low risk for psychosis). RESULTS Significant group differences were observed in several dimensions of interoceptive sensibility. A logistic regression analysis indicated that scores in the subscales of Not-Distracting, Not-Worrying, Attention-Regulation, Emotional Awareness, Body Listening, and Trusting significantly predicted increased risk for psychosis. CONCLUSION Abnormal interoceptive sensibility may be a vulnerability marker for psychosis. These results, however, await further validation from additional comprehensive, longitudinal studies. Enhanced interoceptive sensibility has been reported following contemplative training, thus creating opportunities for future interventions to delay or prevent psychotic illness.

Abstract
Insomnia and inflammation are both common in schizophrenia. In the general population, insomnia is associated with inflammation. In n=519 subjects from the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE) schizophrenia trial, terminal insomnia was investigated as an indicator of inflammation using non-parametric ANCOVA. After controlling for potential confounders, insomnia was significantly associated with higher blood IL-6 (F=4.12, p=0.007) and leptin (F=9.67, p<0.001) with large effect sizes (d=1.03 and d=0.79, respectively). Findings suggest that the assessment of insomnia is relevant to studies of inflammation in schizophrenia, and germane to trials of adjunctive hypnotics and anti-inflammatory agents in these patients.

Abstract
Psychiatric disorder, including bipolar disorder (BD), major depression (MDD), and schizophrenia (SCZ), affects millions of persons around the world. Understanding the disease causal mechanism underlying the three diseases and identifying the modifiable risk factors for them hold the key for the development of effective preventative and treatment strategies. We used a two-sample Mendelian randomization method to assess the causal effect of insomnia on the risk of BD, MDD, and SCZ in a European population. We collected one dataset of insomnia, three of BD, one of MDD, and three of SCZ and performed a meta-analysis for each trait, further verifying the analysis through extensive complementarity and sensitivity analysis. Among the three psychiatric disorders, we found that only insomnia is causally associated with MDD and that higher insomnia increases the risk of MDD. Specifically, the odds ratio of MDD increase of insomnia is estimated to be 1.408 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.210–1.640, p = 1.03E-05] in the European population. The identified causal relationship between insomnia and MDD is robust with respect to the choice of statistical methods and is validated through extensive sensitivity analyses that guard against various model assumption violations. Our results provide new evidence to support the causal effect of insomnia on MDD and pave ways for reducing the psychiatric disorder burden.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disorders associated factors are under explored in schizophrenia while the literature suggests high and heterogeneous frequency. AIMS The objective of the present study was to determine the prevalence and risk factors of sleep disorders in the real-world FACE-SZ national cohort. METHOD Stabilized schizophrenic outpatients were recruited in 10 expert centers for schizophrenia. Sleep quality was explored with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and sleep disorders was defined by a PSQI score > 5. Psychosis severity was measured with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, current major depressive episode with the Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia, verbal aggressiveness with the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire, adherence to treatment with the Medication Adherence Rating Scale, akathisia with the Barnes Akathisia Scale. Current somatic comorbidities and body mass index were reported. Variables with P values <0.20 in univariate analysis were included in a multivariate regression model. RESULTS Of the 562 included patients, 327 subjects (58.2%, IC95% [54.1% - 62.3%]) reported having sleep disorders. After adjustment, sleep disorders were significantly associated with migraine (adjusted odds ratio aOR = 2.23, p = 0.041), major depressive disorder (aOR 1.79, p = 0.030), poor adherence to treatment (aOR = 0.87, p = 0.006), akathisia (aOR = 1.29, p = 0.042) and verbal aggressiveness (aOR = 1.09, p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS More than one on two stabilized real-life outpatients with schizophrenia have been identified with sleep disorders. Combined with the literature data, we have yielded expert recommendations for the treatment and prevention of sleep disorders including treating undiagnosed comorbid depression and migraine and managing antipsychotic treatment to improve adherence and akathisia.

The Experience of Insomnia in Patients With Schizophrenic Disorder: A Qualitative Study. Front Psychiatry 2021; 12:805601. [PMID: 35111091 PMCID: PMC8801919 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2021.805601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insomnia is a health problem that particularly affects people with schizophrenia. Its repercussions go beyond the disorder itself and affect many areas of life. The aim of the present study is to explore the clinical symptoms and consequences of insomnia in patients diagnosed with schizophrenic disorder and the perceptions of these patients regarding the care they receive. METHODS The study takes a qualitative approach and uses semi-structured interviews to conduct a descriptive and interpretive analysis of 3 clinically different clusters of patients. These 3 clusters have been defined by using two-step cluster analysis based on the results of the ISI (Insomnia Severity Index) and EQ-5D scales (EuroQol-5D) and the presence of certain diagnostic symptoms in a sample of 170 patients. The final sample was 31 subjects. The analysis was based on a hermeneutic analysis of the patients' narratives regarding their experiences of insomnia. RESULTS The patients' narratives show differences in the intensity and experience of insomnia depending on the severity, as well as its impact on their quality of life. Insomnia has a huge emotional impact. Participants describe ruminations and obsessive thoughts as a key factor hindering falling asleep. Some of the everyday actions they perform encourage the chronicity of insomnia. The desired health response must include interventions that are effective, such as cognitive-behavioural therapy, and powerful, such as pharmacological solutions. Psychoeducation and advice on sleep hygiene are highly valued tools as preventive strategies. CONCLUSIONS To know the experience of users gives us a more comprehensive understanding of insomnia complexities and brings some new intervention strategies in patients with mental disorders. It is important that health professionals intervene preventively to stop the disorder from becoming chronic.

Sleep Disturbances in Patients with Persistent Delusions: Prevalence, Clinical Associations, and Therapeutic Strategies. Clocks Sleep 2020; 2:399-415. [PMID: 33118525 PMCID: PMC7711969 DOI: 10.3390/clockssleep2040030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2020] [Revised: 10/12/2020] [Accepted: 10/12/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Sleep disturbances accompany almost all mental illnesses, either because sound sleep and mental well-being share similar requisites, or because mental problems lead to sleep problems, or vice versa. The aim of this narrative review was to examine sleep in patients with delusions, particularly in those diagnosed with delusional disorder. We did this in sequence, first for psychiatric illness in general, then for psychotic illnesses where delusions are prevalent symptoms, and then for delusional disorder. The review also looked at the effect on sleep parameters of individual symptoms commonly seen in delusional disorder (paranoia, cognitive distortions, suicidal thoughts) and searched the evidence base for indications of antipsychotic drug effects on sleep. It subsequently evaluated the influence of sleep therapies on psychotic symptoms, particularly delusions. The review’s findings are clinically important. Delusional symptoms and sleep quality influence one another reciprocally. Effective treatment of sleep problems is of potential benefit to patients with persistent delusions, but may be difficult to implement in the absence of an established therapeutic relationship and an appropriate pharmacologic regimen. As one symptom can aggravate another, comorbidities in patients with serious mental illness all need to be treated, a task that requires close liaison among medical specialties.

Major depression, sleep, hostility and body mass index are associated with impaired quality of life in schizophrenia. Results from the FACE-SZ cohort. J Affect Disord 2020; 274:617-623. [PMID: 32663995 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2020.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2020] [Revised: 04/29/2020] [Accepted: 05/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Impaired Quality of life (QoL) in schizophrenia has been mostly associated with psychotic and mood symptomatology, insight and functioning so far. AIMS QoL levels remain unsatisfactory due to other factors we aim to explore. METHOD We have explored sleep quality with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, hostility with the Buss&Perry questionnaire, major depression with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale depressive factor, functioning with the Global Assessment of Functioning scale and weight gain with body mass index in addition to other classical QoL-associated factors. RESULTS 559 patients (mean age=31 (SD 9) years, 74% male sex) were included in the national FACE-SZ cohort. Impaired QoL has been significantly associated with respectively major depression, impaired sleep quality, increased hostility, impaired functioning and impaired insight independently of age, sex, treatments, tobacco smoking and body mass index. Major depression was associated with impaired psychological and physical well-being, and impaired self-esteem. Impaired sleep quality has been associated with impaired psychological and physical well-being and sentimental life. Hostility has been associated with impaired psychological well-being and self-esteem, impaired friends' relationships and impaired autonomy. Weight was associated with impaired physical well-being. Tobacco smoking was associated with higher level of friends' relationships. CONCLUSIONS Major depression, sleep, hostility, and weight gain have been identified as potential targets to improve QoL in schizophrenia and should be implemented in the recommendations for good practice to optimize schizophrenia care.
