Eighty 'psychotic' patients admitted to Mathare Psychiatric Hospital, Nairobi, were screened using the New Haven Schizophrenic Index (NHSI). Fifty-one (64%) of these were positive and the rest negative. Of those positive 73% had First Rank Symptoms (FRS) of schizophrenia as opposed to only 24% in the group negative for schizophrenia. This difference is highly significant (P less than 0.001). The commonest individual FRS were thought echo, thought insertion, delusional mood and auditory hallucinations in third person. The frequency distribution of FRS had no relation to sex or age. These results are compared and contrasted with the findings of similar studies in various cultures.
在内罗毕马萨雷精神病院收治的80名“精神病”患者使用纽黑文精神分裂症指数（NHSI）进行了筛查。其中51名（64%）呈阳性，其余为阴性。在那些呈阳性的患者中，73%有精神分裂症的一级症状（FRS），而在精神分裂症阴性组中这一比例仅为24%。这种差异具有高度显著性（P小于0.001）。最常见的个体一级症状是思维回响、思维插入、妄想心境和第三人称幻听。一级症状的频率分布与性别或年龄无关。将这些结果与不同文化中类似研究的结果进行了比较和对比。
