摘要
The hypothesis that a longer duration of symptoms prior to first hospitalization is associated with a poorer treatment response was prospectively investigated in 998 first-hospitalized schizophrenic patients. Results indicate that most indicators of outcome were worse when the duration of symptoms was long. This was also true when age, gender, as well as the acuteness of illness were controlled for in the analyses. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
