Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with paliperidone on cognitive function, social function and neurotrophic factors in patients with schizophrenia. Methods: A total of 98 patients with schizophrenia treated in Qinghai Third People’s Hospital from May 2019 to May 2021 were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 49 cases in each group. On the basis of conventional antipsychotic treatment, the observation group received real tDCS intervention, and the control group received sham tDCS intervention. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was observed. The Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) scores, Scale of Social Function in Psychosis Inpatients (SSPI) scores, and MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) scores were compared between the 2 groups. The levels of neurotransmitters [dopamine (DA), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] and neurotrophic factors [serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)] in the brain of the two groups were detected and analyzed. Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was 89.80%, which was higher than 71.43% of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the PANSS scores and total scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, MCCB and SSPI scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of brain DA and 5-HT, serum BDNF and GDNF in the observation group were higher than those in the control group. The patients in the two groups had good tolerance to tDCS intervention, and no serious adverse events occurred. There was no significant difference in the incidence of mild adverse events such as pain and skin redness between the 2 groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: tDCS combined with paliperidone can improve the clinical efficacy of patients with schizophrenia, alleviate the symptoms of schizophrenia, and improve cognitive function and social function. Its mechanism may be related to the improvement of brain neurotransmitter and the improvement of serum nutritional factor level.
