TI  - Perceived needs and health-related quality of life in people with schizophrenia 
      and metabolic syndrome: a "real-world" study.

AB  - BACKGROUND: The complexity of schizophrenia lies in the combination of 
      psychiatric, somatic and social needs requiring care. The aim of the study was to 
      compare perceived needs between groups with absence/presence of metabolic 
      syndrome (MetS) and to analyze the relationship between needs, health-related 
      quality of life (HRQoL) and MetS in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective 
      disorder. METHODS: A "real-world" cross-sectional study was set up with a 
      comprehensive framework including the following, needs for care (Camberwell 
      Assessment of Need Interview [CAN]), HRQoL (Euro Qol-5D Questionnaire), 
      sociodemographic data, lifestyle habits, psychopathology (Positive And Negative 
      Syndrome Scale [PANSS]), global functioning (Global Assessment of Functioning 
      Scale [GAF]), anthropometric measurements and blood test results were assessed 
      for an outpatient sample (n = 60). RESULTS: The mean number of needs (given by 
      CAN) was identified for both groups. Patients with MetS rated a higher number of 
      needs compared to the group without this condition. Mobility problems (given by 
      EQ-5D) were negatively associated with the number of total and unmet needs. For 
      participants with MetS, HRQoL was related to the number of needs and unmet needs. 
      For people with MetS, positive symptomatology score (given by PANSS) was related 
      to the number of needs and met needs and general symptomatology was associated 
      with total, met and unmet needs. For individuals without MetS, the global 
      functioning score (given by GAF) was significantly inversely related with total, 
      met and unmet needs. CONCLUSIONS: Needs and HRQoL, as well as general 
      symptomatology, were related only in patients with MetS. This has implications 
      for treatment planning at the individual and organizational levels. An analysis 
      of both physical and mental needs could provide a starting point for the 
      extension of facilities in the health care system in order to reach the goal of 
      improving quality of life.
