    Author: Benazzi F, Mazzoli M, Rossi E.
    Journal: Eur Arch Psychiatry Clin Neurosci; 1992; 242(2-3):119-21. PubMed ID: 1486100.
    Abstract:
    A follow-up and family study was carried out of 16 first episode, DSM-III-R schizophreniform disorder patients with good prognostic features. Mean length of follow-up was 52.3 months. It was found that 62.5% had affective episodes, 31.2% had schizophreniform episodes. No case of schizophrenia was observed. Outcome was good. Morbid risk for affective disorder among first degree relatives was 25%, morbid risk for schizophrenia was 0%. These findings suggest a link between DSM-III-R schizophreniform disorder with good prognostic features and affective disorder, and no relationship with schizophrenia.
