The study of the progression of NSS during adolescence will provide valuable information about the role of NSS as endophenotypes or biomarkers and about brain development at a stage in which brain maturation has not yet been completed. Methods:  Neurological soft signs were assessed in a sample of 110 first episodes of early-onset psychosis (EOP) and 98 healthy children and adolescents at two different times in a 2-year follow-up period. Results:  Patients with EOP showed more NSS than controls both at baseline (p < .001) and the 2-year follow-up (p < .001). No differences were found in the number of signs among the different diagnostic subgroups (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and other psychoses). When we examined the changes in NSS over the follow-up, the reduction of NSS in the patients was greater than the controls for ‘Motor coordination’ (p = .032), ‘Others’ (p < .001), and ‘Total score’ (p < .001) of the NES. Conclusion:  Despite the greater reduction of NSS in patients than in controls along the follow-up, patients still have more neurological signs than healthy controls; therefore, these signs may be considered a trait marker. NSS do not seem to be specific to schizophrenia as they are present in different EOPs.

Two-year diagnostic stability in early-onset first-episode psychosis / Josefina CASTRO-FORNIELES in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 52-10 (October 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 52-10 (October 2011) . - p.1089-1098 Titre : Two-year diagnostic stability in early-onset first-episode psychosis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Josefina CASTRO-FORNIELES, Auteur ; Elena DE LA SERNA, Auteur ; Ana GONZALEZ-PINTO, Auteur ; Mara PARELLADA, Auteur ; Montserrat GRAELL, Auteur ; Dolores MORENO, Auteur ; Soraya OTERO, Auteur ; Celso ARANGO, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.1089-1098 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : psychosis  diagnosis  schizophrenia  bipolar disorder Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background:  Only one study has used a prospective method to analyze the diagnostic stability of first psychotic episodes in children and adolescents. The Child and Adolescent First-Episode Psychosis Study (CAFEPS) is a 2-year, prospective longitudinal study of early-onset first episodes of psychosis (EO-FEP). Aim:  To describe diagnostic stability and the variables related to diagnostic changes. Methods:  Participants were 83 patients (aged 9–17 years) with an EO-FEP consecutively attended. They were assessed with a structured interview (Kiddie-Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia, Present and Lifetime version) and clinical scales at baseline and after 2 years. Results:  The global consistency for all diagnoses was 63.9%. The small group of bipolar disorder had high stability (92.31%) as did the group with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (90.00%). Depressive disorder had lower stability (37.50%) and the lowest values were for psychotic disorder not otherwise specified (11.76%) and brief psychotic disorder (0%).The most frequent diagnostic shift was to schizophrenia spectrum and bipolar disorders. One group of patients did not meet the criteria for any diagnosis at follow-up. Independent predictors of change to schizophrenia spectrum disorders were lower scores on the Children’s Global Assessment Scale (CGAS) and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. Predictors of not having a diagnosis at follow-up were the CGAS and the Strauss–Carpenter Outcome Scale. Conclusions:  Global diagnostic stability was 63.9%. Bipolar and schizophrenia spectrum disorders were the most stable diagnoses, while depressive disorder and other psychosis the least stable. Psychosocial functioning at baseline was a good predictor of diagnosis at follow-up. These data show the need for longitudinal follow-up in EO-FEP before a stable diagnosis is reached.
