Abstract:
Schizophrenia is often a severe and debilitating mental illness, frequently associated with impairments in social cognition that hinder individuals abilities to relate to others and integrate effectively in society. This placebo-controlled crossover study aimed to elucidate the neural underpinnings of oxytocin administration in patients with schizophrenia. 20 patients with schizophrenia were examined using functional magnetic resonance imaging under oxytocin (40 IU) or placebo nasal spray. These pro-social effects may contribute to the facilitation of social engagement and social interactions in patients with schizophrenia.
