Objective: To identify the differences or comparability of parameters of cerebral hemodynamics between patients with schizophrenia with or without concomitant metabolic syndrome (MS).
Material And Methods: The study included 94 patients with schizophrenia (48 men and 46 women). A control group consisted of 40 mentally and somatically healthy individuals (17 men and 23 women) comparable in sex and age to the main group of patients.
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is common among schizophrenia patients, and one of MetS's causes may be an imbalance in nitric oxide regulation. In this study, we examined associations of three polymorphic variants of the nitric oxide synthase 1 adapter protein () gene with MetS in schizophrenia. NOS1AP regulates neuronal nitric oxide synthase, which controls intracellular calcium levels and may influence insulin secretion.
