          Abstract

          CONTEXTO: Existe uma forte associação entre um bom funcionamento psicossocial e a habilidade de realizar tarefas diárias em pacientes com esquizofrenia. Instrumentos válidos tornam-se cada vez mais necessários para avaliar o desempenho desses pacientes nas atividades de vida independente. OBJETIVO: Avaliar as propriedades psicométricas do Inventário de Habilidades de Vida Independente - versão do paciente (ILSS-BR/P) em portadores de esquizofrenia. MÉTODOS: Confiabilidade foi avaliada pelo teste-reteste, entre observadores e consistência interna. Além disso, a validade de construto, discriminante e concorrente, foi avaliada. RESULTADOS: Cinquenta pacientes foram incluídos no estudo entre observadores, com 64,4% de concordância entre as respostas e uma variação de 0,80-0,99 do Coeficiente de Correlação Intraclasses (ICC). Quarenta e seis pacientes participaram do teste-reteste, e o ICC variou de 0,84-0,94, com 44,3% de concordância. A consistência interna apresentou bom resultado (0,23-0,98). Cento e sessenta pacientes participaram da validação. Na validade discriminante, as mulheres apresentaram desempenho superior no escore global e em cinco subescalas quando comparadas aos homens. A validade concorrente confirmou a especificidade das dimensões da escala, comparando a ILSS com a PANSS, Calgary, CGI, GAF, WHOQOL e Autoestima de Rosemberg. CONCLUSÃO: A ILSS-BR/P é um instrumento de pesquisa válido e confiável para avaliar o funcionamento social desses pacientes.

          BACKGROUND: There is a strong association between good psychosocial functioning and the ability to carry out everyday tasks in patients with schizophrenia. Valid instruments become increasingly necessary to evaluate the performance of these patients in independent living activities. OBJECTIVE: To adapt and assess the psychometric properties of the Brazilian version of the Independent Living Skills Survey (ILSS-BR/P) in patients with schizophrenia. METHODS: Reliability was assessed with test-retest, interrater and internal consistency. Furthermore, construct, discriminant and concurrent validity were assessed. RESULTS: Fifty patients were included in the interrater study, with an agreement of 64.4% between responses and an Intraclass Correlation (ICC) ranged from 0.80-0.99. Forty-six patients participated in the test-retest, with an ICC ranged from 0.84-0.94 and an agreement of 44.3%. The internal consistency was good (0.23-0.98). Hundred and sixty patients participated in the validation. Regarding to the discriminant validity, female patients presented a higher performance in the overall score and five subscales compared with men. The concurrent validity confirmed the specificity of the dimensions of the scale, comparing the ILSS with the PANSS, Calgary, CGI, GAF, WHOQOL and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem. DISCUSSION: The ILSS-BR/P is a valid and reliable research instrument to assess social functioning in patients with schizophrenia.

          What are the functional consequences of neurocognitive deficits in schizophrenia?

          M. Green (1996)
          It has been well established that schizophrenic patients have neurocognitive deficits, but it is not known how these deficits influence the daily lives of patients. The goal of this review was to determine which, if any, neurocognitive deficits restrict the functioning of schizophrenic patients in the outside world. The author reviewed studies that have evaluated neurocognitive measures as predictors and correlates of functional outcome for schizophrenic patients. The review included 1) studies that have prospectively evaluated specific aspects of neurocognition and community (e.g., social and vocational) functioning (six studies), 2) all known studies of neurocognitive correlates of social problem solving (five studies), and 3) all known studies of neurocognitive correlates and predictors of psychosocial skill acquisition (six studies). Despite wide variation among studies in the selection of neurocognitive measures, some consistencies emerged. The most consistent finding was that verbal memory was associated with all types of functional outcome. Vigilance was related to social problem solving and skill acquisition. Card sorting predicted community functioning but not social problem solving. Negative symptoms were associated with social problem solving but not skill acquisition. Notably, psychotic symptoms were not significantly associated with outcome measures in any of the studies reviewed. Verbal memory and vigilance appear to be necessary for adequate functional outcome. Deficiencies in these areas may prevent patients from attaining optimal adaptation and hence act as "neurocognitive rate-limiting factors." On the basis of this review of the literature, a series of hypotheses are offered for follow-up studies.

              Gender differences in the prescribing of antipsychotic drugs.

              The aim of this article is to offer recommendations and rationale for gender-specific antipsychotic treatment. The author summarizes reviews of recent literature in psychiatric clinical trials, pharmacology, drug safety, toxicology, obstetrics and gynecology, and pediatrics. The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antipsychotic drugs differ in women and men and are influenced by gender-specific factors such as body build, diet, smoking, concurrent medication, exercise, substance use, and hormonal transitions. In general, and for some drugs in particular, women require lower doses in order to stay well. Because preliminary drug testing is not done in pregnant women, the issue of effective dosing during pregnancy is unstudied, and safety for fetuses and nursing infants may not become evident until a drug is widely used. Specific adverse effects on issues crucial to women (e.g., parenting) have not been well studied, but some side effects, such as weight gain, passivity, hypotension, and hyperprolactinemia, are reported to be particularly problematic for women. Some serious side effects are more often seen among women than among men. Optimal maintenance regimens of antipsychotics for women and men are not the same.
