Popis: | Conventional antipsychotic medication is ineffective in around a third of patients with schizophrenia, and the nature of the therapeutic response is unpredictable. We investigated whether response to antipsychotics is related to brain glutamate levels prior to treatment. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to measure glutamate levels (Glu/Cr) in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and in the thalamus in antipsychotic-naive or minimally medicated patients with first episode psychosis (FEP, n = 71) and healthy volunteers (n = 60), at three sites. Following scanning, patients were treated with amisulpride for 4 weeks (n = 65), then 1H-MRS was repeated (n = 46). Remission status was defined in terms of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale for Schizophrenia (PANSS) scores. Higher levels of Glu/Cr in the ACC were associated with more severe symptoms at presentation and a lower likelihood of being in remission at 4 weeks (P |
