Schizophrenia patients may develop various thermoregulatory disturbances. We hypothesized that a standardized exercise-heat tolerance test [two 50-min bouts of walking a motor-driven treadmill at 40 degrees C (relative humidity=40%)] would reveal abnormal thermoregulation in drug-free schizophrenia patients. Six drug-free schizophrenia outpatients and seven healthy comparison subjects participated in this study. The schizophrenia patients exhibited significantly higher baseline and exertion-related rectal temperature. The relevance of these findings to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia-related thermoregulatory disorders is as yet unclear.

Objective: Aim: To investigate the etiology, pathogenesis, and effectiveness of pharmacotherapy and psychotherapeutic modalities of delusions in Schizophrenia spectrum and other Psychotic Disorders.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: In our study, we included English-language studies from online databases such as Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library conducted until January 2024 using the following keywords "delusions", "Schizophrenia spectrum and other Psychotic Disorders", "pharmacotherapy", "psychotherapy", and "antipsychotics". Scientific novelty: There is already published evidence that has studied Schizophrenia spectrum disorders from definition to treatment.

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can generally be divided into focal damage and diffuse damage, and neonate Hypoxia-Ischemia Brain Damage (nHIBD) is one of the causes of diffuse damage. Patients with nHIBD are at an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the shared pathogenesis of patients affected with both neurological disorders has not been fully elucidated.

Background: Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) is a health insurance scheme launched by the Government of India (GOI) in 2018 to cover the in-patient (IP) treatment expenditures, including mental illness treatment expenditures, for 500 million Indians. AB-PMJAY pays 100% of treatment expenditures for persons below the poverty line (BPL) and 30% for people above the poverty line (APL). Ayushman Bharat Arogya Karnataka (ABAK) trust implements this scheme in Karnataka, a southern Indian state.

Aripiprazole 2-month ready-to-use (Ari 2MRTU) is a long-acting injectable antipsychotic that was approved for use in Europe in March 2024, for the maintenance treatment of schizophrenia in adult patients stabilized with aripiprazole; it is administered via gluteal intramuscular injection once every two months. This review examines population pharmacokinetic model-based simulations relevant to the use of Ari 2MRTU in Europe, accompanied by expert commentary that contextualizes the simulations and highlights the potential implications of the availability of Ari 2MRTU for patients, caregivers, and clinicians. Various simulations conducted across 8 weeks (representing the first dosing interval), or 32 weeks (representing maintenance dosing) demonstrated an aripiprazole exposure profile for Ari 2MRTU that was similar to aripiprazole once-monthly (AOM), but with an extended dosing interval.

Schizophrenia is a heterogeneous neuropsychological disorder characterized by three distinct sets of symptoms: positive, negative, and cognitive. It carries significant public health implications and is estimated to affect up to 1% of the population. Despite extensive research, the underlying mechanisms of schizophrenia are not entirely understood, and existing antipsychotic treatments have notable limitations.
