简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine whether dopamine synthesis capacity by using [18 fluorine(F)]-DOPA PET for patients with schizophrenia in the maintenance phase can predict treatment discontinuation.
详细描述
There are two groups: the healthy control group (n=12) and the patient group (n=26). The patient group recruits subjects diagnosed with first episode psychosis which occurred within 2 years and having been treated with antipsychotics for 1 year. Participants will complete clinical scales and undergo PET scans. Subjects in the patient group will receive a reduced intake of antipsychotics by 25% after each week of the four-week period in which they will also undergo PET imaging at the baseline, 7 week, and 8 week marks to detect the correlation between the capacity of presynaptic dopamine and relapse in the patients discontinuing treatment.

研究组 & 干预措施
patient group
The patient group recruits subjects diagnosed with first episode psychosis which occurred within 2 years and having been treated with antipsychotics for 1 year. Subjects in the patient group will receive a reduced intake of antipsychotics by 25% after each week of the four-week period in which they will also undergo PET imaging at the baseline, 7 week, and 8 week marks to detect the correlation between the capacity. And patient group should complete clinical scales at 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 week.

干预措施: clinical scale (Behavioral)
healthy control group
Screening tests for healthy volunteers included physical examination, vital signs, laboratory will test (hematology, blood chemistry, and urinalysis), and a 12-lead electrocardiograms. A psychiatric interview with the Structured Clinical Interview for text revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders -IV(DSM-IV-TR) Axis I disorders, Research Version, Nonpatient Edition (SCID-I/NP) (First et al. 2002) will be conducted. Subjects with any medically significant abnormality on investigations and/or psychiatric disease will be excluded. Also, healthy control group will take a PET scan at 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 week and clinical scales at baseline.
