F145. WHAT ARE THE MAIN BRAIN CHANGES IN FMRI AFTER TREATMENT IN FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS? A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Abstract Background There are many studies using structural MRI to explore the longitudinal course of F Episode Psychosis (FEP).2 On the other hand, there is a lack of functional MRI studies examining the longitudinal course of FEP. The aim of this work is to make a literature systematic review of these studies, to summarize the knowledge about longitudinal course of functional brain activity in FEP. Methods We followed the PRISMA guidelines for conducting systematic reviews and combined the use of electronic and manual systematic search methods, in the principal databases (MedLine, PubMed and Web of Science) using the query “longitudinal” AND “fMRI” AND “first episode psychosis” OR “first …

T108. ANALYTICAL AND PREDICTIVE VALIDITY OF HALLUCINATIONS IN FIRST PSYCHOTIC EPISODES
Abstract Background Some studies of first psychotic episodes have suggested the association between childhood trauma, such as sexual abuse, and the risk of hallucinations.1 Furthermore, other studies indicated that environment can alter the phenomenological presentation of first psychotic episodes.2 However, there are no studies about the association between hallucinations in first psychotic episodes and the prognosis of the disease. This is the main objective of this study. We also compared the phenomenological differences between hallucinations in first episode psychosis and persistent hallucinations in patients with chronic psychosis. Methods Naturalistic, longitudinal follow-up study in…
