Schizophrenie und Depression

Abstract: The early course of symptoms and social impairment in schizophrenia and depression seems to offer an opportunity to distinguish these disorders from variants of normal development fairly early. However, early diagnostic distinction and prediction of psychosis versus depression risk at the pre-psychotic prodromal stage do not seem promising due to the broad overlap in symptoms and impairment.

“…Thus, some hypotheses and theories in this direction possibly need to be re-examined. For example, our results do not strongly support the empirical findings and further hypotheses of Häfner and colleagues [17, 27] that due to a low threshold, depressive symptoms are widespread in the population and independent of frank psychosis with a significant higher threshold. Our findings propose suggest strongly that schizotypal symptoms preferably convey depression symptoms, which for their part can convey schizophrenia nuclear symptoms.…”

“…This is in line with findings concerning other severe psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Several researchers have postulated that the prodromal phase of these disorders is characterized by rather unspecific symptoms, especially having an unspecific depressive-anxious feature, and later, more specific symptoms lead to a psychopathologically characteristic early course of a distinct disease (Maurer et al, 2006). This fits to the well-known results of a lot of high-risk studies, which all revealed that an unspecific disposition for any psychopathological disturbance was shown by high-risk persons.…”

“…Next, depressive symptoms have been found to be a marker of poor course trajectories in SSD (Maurer et al, 2006). Häfner et al (2005a) found that patients suffering from more depressive symptoms in prodromal stages of illness had higher SSD symptom severity at the onset of first psychosis.…”
