Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between QT interval and the compements of antipsychotic-induced metabolic syndrome in schizophrenic patients. Methods Totally 460 schizophrenic patients(240 men and 220 women)aged 19～60 from the study cohort of the schizophrenic patients in treatment with antipsychotant were recruited in the study for epidemiologic examinations,involving anthropometry and measurements of blood pressure,fasting ang 2hr plasma levels of glucose and insulin and serum levels of lipid.A standard 12-lead ECG was recorded and the corrected QT (QTc)was calculated accordingly by Bazett formula.HOMA-IR index was calculated for estimating individual insulin resistance.Metabolic syndrome(MS)was diagnosed according to the definition issued by the International Diabetes Federation(IDF)in 2005.Results The prolonged QT interval was found in 124 of the 460 cases(27.0%),and the rates of prolonged QT interval being 21.7% and 32.7% in men and women respectively (χ2=7.13,P<0.01).The prevalences of MS,IR,central obesity,IFG,higher serum level of triglyceride(TG)and lower serum level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) were 39.3%,38.7%,35.4%,34.1%,31.3%,29.8% and 27.0% in schizophrenic patients population respectively.The prolonged QT interval was significantly associated with MS,IR,IFG,higher serum level of triglyceride(TG)and central obesity respectively(χ2=4.95～13.63,P<0.05).Conclusion The prolonged QT interval was significantly correlated with antipsychotic-induced metabolic syndrome(MS) and components of abnormal metabolism.
