Popis: Current data on chronotype and sleep quality and their relationship with clinical characteristics of schizophrenia are insufficient to evaluate whether these variables are associated with cardiometabolic risk. We aimed to identify the interplay between chronotype, sleep quality and metabolic indices that can potentially predict negative cardiometabolic outcomes in schizophrenia patients. One-hundred schizophrenia patients who were under a stable antipsychotic regime were enrolled in the study. Clinical information, anthropometric measurements, as well as recent metabolic parameters including serum lipids, atherogenic, and metabolic indices suggestive of cardiometabolic risk were recorded. High and low sleep quality groups (HSQ and LSQ) were determined via the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and chronotypes were evaluated with the Morningness-Eveningness Questionaire. Patients with eveningness chronotype had poorer sleep quality compared to intermediate or morningness (
