Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To know the molecular mechanisms associated with the metabolic effects of antipsychotics in order to identify markers with clinical predictive value in the face of metabolic dysfunction induced by antipsychotics;Secondary Objective: -To know the genetic polymorphisms and the genetic variants associated with an increased risk of metabolic dysfunction. -To investigate the alterations of the mitochondrial physiology associated to the metabolic alterations induced by the antipsychotics. -To know the alterations of RNA and proteins associated with the metabolic alterations induced by antipsychotics. -Molecular alterations at the beginning of the treatment (at 72 hours, at the month and at 6 months after starting the treatment).;Primary end point(s): Metabolic change induced by second generation antipsychotics, evaluated by changes observed in complete laboratory tests performed on patients: -Glucose -LDL cholesterol -HDL cholesterol -Total Cholesterol -Triglycerides: -Glycosylated Hemoglobin -Bilirubin -Transaminases AST / GOT -ALT / GPT transaminases -Insulin -Peptide C -TSH Profile TSH Changes at the physiological level: -Measurements in the BMI, abdominal perimeter and waist - hip index. -Hepatic steatosis measured by the parameters obtained after performing a liver ecography: Liver Ecogeneity-Renal Cortex and the attenuation Index. -Glucose tolerance index;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Six months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1.Isolation of DNA to know the genetic polymorphisms and the genetic variants associated with an increased risk of metabolic dysfunction. 2.Analysis of the mitochondrial activity to know the alterations of the mitochondrial physiology associated to the metabolic alterations induced by the antipsychotics. 3.RNA isolation and measurement of proteins to know the alterations of RNA and proteins associated with the metabolic alterations induced by antipsychotics. 4.Plasma concentration of the drug, to know the molecular alterations induced by the treatment (at 72 hours, at month and at 6 months after starting the treatment);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Six months | — |
