Differences between female and male patients with schizophrenia in psychopathology and course of illness have frequently been reported. However, the influence of sex on symptomatic and social remission is still an open issue. In the present study, differences between males and females in both clinical and social remission rates and in scores on several scales assessing social functioning were evaluated in 295 stabilized patients with schizophrenia, schizoaffective or delusional disorder. Female patients, as compared with males, showed a later onset of the illness, less negative symptoms and less frequent alcohol abuse. No significant difference was found between females and males in the rate of symptomatic and functional remission. No significant effect of sex was observed on any index of social functioning.
女性和男性精神分裂症患者在精神病理学和疾病过程方面的差异经常被报道。然而，性别对症状和社会缓解的影响仍然是一个悬而未决的问题。在本研究中，我们评估了 295 名稳定的精神分裂症、分裂情感障碍或妄想障碍患者的临床和社会缓解率以及评估社会功能的几个量表上的评分方面，男性和女性之间的差异。与男性相比，女性患者的发病较晚，阴性症状较少，酒精滥用较少。在症状和功能缓解率方面，女性和男性之间没有显著差异。在社会功能的任何指标上，性别都没有显著影响。
