We investigated the effect of quetiapine on serum levels of BDNF and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in drug-naive first-episode psychosis subjects. Methods. Fifteen patients drawn from a larger study received quetiapine treatment for twelve weeks. Baseline ...
متن کاملPlasma brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels, learning capacity and cognition in patients with first episode psychosis

The aim of this study is to investigate whether Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) levels are associated with cognitive impairment in FEP patients compared with healthy controls. METHODS 45 FEP patients and 45 healthy co...

In this study, we as...
