What does the PANSS mean

TL;DR: The results provide a better framework for understanding the clinical meaning of the PANSS total score in drug trials of schizophrenia patients with acute exacerbations and may ideally use at least a 50% reduction from baseline cut-off to define response rather than lower thresholds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy and extrapyramidal side-effects of the new antipsychotics olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, and sertindole compared to conventional antipsychotics and placebo. A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

TL;DR: All of the 4 new drugs are more effective than placebo, but the magnitude of the effect is only moderate, and all new antipsychotics are associated with less frequent use of antiparkinson medication than haloperidol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antipsychotic drugs versus placebo for relapse prevention in schizophrenia: a systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: Maintenance treatment with antipsychotic drugs benefits patients with schizophrenia and the advantages of these drugs must be weighed against their side-effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
