Our new paper out in @SchizBulletin found & replicated 4 distinct cognitive profiles in schizophrenia. Subtypes consists of a “less impaired” subtype, two “intermediate cognitive impairment” subtypes differentiated by executive function, & “globally impaired” subtype.
Managing heterogeneity of #schizophrenia using cognitive subtyping: A latent profile analysis using data from 762 patients reveals 4 distinct profiles that were stable across time and were associated with clinical outcomes. doi.org/10.1093/schbul/sbaa1… @SchizBulletin @KeaneLim
This 4-profile cognitive solution showed stability across time. CFA revealed cognitive profiles are better explained by distinct profiles rather than a severity continuum.
Thank you all participants & co-authors (Jason Smucny, Deanna Barch, @maxzylam, Richard Keefe, Jimmy Lee) for being a part of this work!

Caveats: The lack of association between our Asian UHR cohort with other psychiatric traits may be due to differing ancestry & sample size of the training & target datasets. Further studies are warranted for replication.

Our new @TheLancetPsych paper examines metabolic side effects of 18 antipsychotics in the treatment of schizophrenia: a network meta-analysis of 100 RCTs and over 25,000 patients. Here’s a tour of the paper, with some unexpected results… [thread] 1/n thelancet.com/journals/lanps…
Excited to share our new work on the psychometrics of social cognitive measures in an Asian schizophrenia sample.
Huge thanks to Sara-Ann Lee, Amy Pinkham, @maxzylam , Jimmy Lee for this!

Our findings partially replicated SCOPE's where BLERT & ER40 showed best psychometrics. However, its premature to exclude tasks with poor psychometrics for further evaluation as cultural modifications/adaptations may be required (7/8)
