Predictors of short – and long-term clinical outcome in schizophrenic psychosis – the Northern Finland 1966 Birth Cohort study
Abstract Objective: Since the outcome in schizophrenia is heterogeneous and often poor, identification of specific predictors of outcome would be useful in clinical practice. Methods: Subjects with schizophrenic psychoses ( n = 103) included in the Northern Finland 1966 Birth Cohort ( n = 12,058), r...

Being single, having an early onset, insidious onset, suicidal ideations upon the first admission, a rehospitalization and a high number of treatment days due to psychosis in the early stages of the illness all predicted a poorer clinical outcome in the longer term, after a minimum follow-up of 10 years. Conclusions: This population-based study indicates that clinical and sociodemographic factors around the onset of illness have significance for the long-term outcome in schizophrenia.
