Psychosocial Programs

Schizophrenia is one of the most debilitating mental disorders. For a significant portion of individuals who suffer from this disorder, onset occurs in young adulthood, arresting important social and educational development that is necessary for future successful labor force participation. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the literature about clients enrolled in first episode psychosis programs and psychosocial outcomes by examining the factors associated with paid employment among young adults who have experienced their first psychotic episodes. In this paper, we consider the association of socioeconomic factors to employment. Our results suggest that in addition to treatment, socioeconomic factors such as receipt of public disability benefits and educational attainment are associated with employment status. These results can help to inform future directions for the enhancement of psychosocial programs in FEP models to promote paid employment.

Symptomatic Remission

AbstractObjectiveTo analyse the contribution of socio-demographics, clinical profile and psychotropic treatment on remission in patients with schizophrenia.MethodsAmong 933 French outpatients recruited in the European observational Schizophrenia Outpatient Health Outcomes study (SOHO), 563 were followed-up for 3 years, had at most one missing visit, and were included in the analysis. Symptomatic remission was defined as a score of 3 (mild severity) or less on the Clinical Global Impression-Schizophrenia (CGI) overall, positive, negative and cognitive symptom scales, maintained for at least 6 months and without hospitalization. A logistic regression model was used to analyse the factors associated with time in remission.Results60.6% of patients achieved remission during the 3-year follow-up. Patients never treated before inclusion in the study (OR = 2.3) and those having paid employment (OR = 1.4) were more likely to achieve remission. Higher baseline clinical severity was associated with a significantly lower likelihood of achieving remission: CGI overall (OR = 0.67), CGI positive (OR = 0.85) and CGI negative (OR = 0.74). Compared with olanzapine, other atypicals (OR = 0.71) and conventional antipsychotics (OR = 0.69) were associated with a lower probability of achieving remission.ConclusionsRemission can be achieved in a high proportion of patients. Factors such as being previously untreated, having paid employment and taking olanzapine are predictors of remission.

Contrast Information

Many factors (e.g., resolution of microscope, type of tissue, and preparation of sample) affect electron microscopical images and alter the amount of information that can be retrieved from a specimen. Of interest in this report are those factors associated with the evaluation of epoxy embedded tissues. In this context, informational retrieval is dependant, in part, on the ability to “see” sample detail (e.g., contrast) and, in part, on tue quality of sample preservation. Two aspects of this problem will be discussed: 1) epoxy resins and their effect on image contrast, information retrieval, and sample preservation; and 2) the interaction between some stains commonly used for enhancing contrast and information retrieval.
