Abstract
This study aimed to examine longitudinal changes in motor dexterity (MD) performance in first episode of psychosis (FEP), focusing on diagnosis-specific trajectories. Participants were recruited from the project PAFIP in Spain (134 FEP, 84 HC). MD was assessed using the Grooved Pegboard Test at baseline and at 10-year follow-up. Clinical and premorbid data were collected for the patients. FEP participants were classified as having schizophrenia (SCZ) or other psychosis (OP) and compared with a group of healthy controls (HC). MD correlated significantly with age and intelligence in all participants. MD in SCZ patients was additionally correlated with premorbid adjustment and negative symptoms, whereas in the OP group the association was with antipsychotic dose. SCZ patients showed a slight decline in MD at follow-up, whereas the OP and HC groups remained stable. There may be different long-term trajectories of MD across diagnoses in FEP patients. Early developmental factors such as premorbid adaptation and cognitive function, together with age-related changes, may influence a mild decline in MD specifically in schizophrenia.
期刊介绍:
The original papers published in the European Archives of Psychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience deal with all aspects of psychiatry and related clinical neuroscience.
Clinical psychiatry, psychopathology, epidemiology as well as brain imaging, neuropathological, neurophysiological, neurochemical and moleculargenetic studies of psychiatric disorders are among the topics covered.
Thus both the clinician and the neuroscientist are provided with a handy source of information on important scientific developments.
