Influence of psychopathology and metabolic parameters on quality of life in patients with first-episode psychosis before and after initial antipsychotic treatment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The impact of psychological and physical health on quality of life (QoL) in patients with early psychosis remain relatively unexplored. We evaluated the predictive value of psychopathological and metabolic parameters on QoL in antipsychotic-naïve patients with first-episode psychosis before and after initial antipsychotic treatment. At baseline, 125 patients underwent assessments of psychopathology, prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS), and QoL. After 6 weeks of antipsychotic monotherapy, 89 patients were re-investigated. At baseline, the prevalence of MetS was 19.3% (n = 22). After 6 weeks, body weight (1.3 kg, p < 0.001) and body mass index (0.4 kg/m2, p < 0.001) increased, and four additional patients developed MetS. Multivariate linear regression revealed that positive and negative symptoms, and to some degree waist circumference, were predictors of QoL at both time points. Our findings suggest that in the earliest stages of antipsychotic treatment, metabolic side-effects may be less influential on QoL than psychopathological severity.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
