• Miscellaneous

Talking Points
• Schizophrenia is not an excess of dopamine.
• The differentiation between “functional” and
“organic” is artificial.
• Schizophrenia and other psychiatric illnesses are
syndromes.
• Schizophrenia is a diagnosis of exclusion.

Anatomical abnormalities
•
•
•
•
•
Enlargement of lateral ventricles
Smaller than normal total brain volume
Cortical atrophy
Widening of third ventricle
Smaller hippocampus
Physiologic studies:
PET and SPECT
• Generally normal global cerebral flow
• Hypofrontality
• Failure to activate dorsolateral prefrontal
cortex (problem-solving, adaptation, coping
with changes)

Etiology of Schizophrenia:
Brain Structure and Function

Congenital Factors
» Damage during gestation or birth
– Obstetrical complications rates high in
patients with schizophrenia

Reduced supply of oxygen during delivery may
result in loss of cortical matter
» Viral damage to fetal brain
– In Finnish study, schizophrenia rates higher
when mother had flu in second trimester of
pregnancy (Mednick et al., 1988)
– Maternal exposure to parasite associated
with higher rates of schizophrenia in their
offspring

Etiology of Schizophrenia:
Brain Structure and Function

Developmental Factors
» Prefrontal cortex matures in adolescence or
early adulthood
» Dopamine activity also peaks in
adolescence
» Stress activates HPA system which triggers
cortisol secretion
– Cortisol increases dopamine activity

May explain why symptoms appear in
late adolescence but brain damage
occurs early in
life2009 John Wiley & Sons, NY

27
Etiology of Schizophrenia:
Psychological Stress

Reaction to stress
» Individuals with schizophrenia and their firstdegree relatives more reactive to stress
– Greater decreases in positive mood and increases
in negative mood

Socioeconomic status
» Highest rates of schizophrenia among urban
poor.
– Sociogenic hypothesis

Stress of poverty causes disorder
– Social selection theory

Downward drift in socioeconomic status
» Research supports social selection

28
Etiology of Schizophrenia:
Family Factors

Schizophrenogenic mother
» Cold, domineering, conflict inducing
» No support for this theory

Communication deviance (CD)
» Hostility and poor communication
– Family CD predicted onset in one
longitudinal study (Norton, 1982)
– CD not specific to families of
schizophrenic patients

ESTIMATED MEAN WEIGHT GAIN AT 10 WEEKS
Mean change in body weight (kg)
A comprehensive literature search identified 78 studies that included data on weight change in •
patients treated with a specific antipsychotic.
5 For each agent a meta-analysis and random effects regression estimated the change in weight •
at 10 weeks of treatment.
