Schizophrenia Reasch Paper
Abstact The purpose of this reasch paper is to reaserch and study the mental deisidse schizophrenia on the human brainand, its history. The question guideing this reaserch paper is what is schizophrena. The aim of this study is to learn more about the mental disorder that is schizophrena. Their will be various online reasours that support my claim on the mental disorder schizophrenia. Also I will be using an offline source as well to show history and effect on the brain from schizophrenia. I am going to analize and show the history and underlying effects of schizsophina disorder and explaining in underling facts about the diese. Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe, and disabling brain disorder that has affected people throughout history, and

In the past to see if genetics played a role on schizophrenia many years ago, to see if this was true researches used twins to see if a child’s genetics played a part of schizophrenia, as seen from this online article “if one identical twin has schizophrenia, the risk for the other twin (who has the exact same genes as his/her sibling) is only about fifty percent” (web 2). This would show the complexity of genes that is not understood. In a recent study on genome scans for schizophrenia analysis: “some significance on several chromosomes. One meta-analysis, which looked at 20 different genome-wide datasets, identified a region on chromosome 2q” (web 5). In these studies they showed significances in genome 2q that can link into schizophrenia and its significance on the disorder. Also in cases of European decent there were some linkage on the 8g genome but they chromosomes areas are very large and they have a plethora of genes. Genes and chromosomes play a large part in …show more content…
Schizophrenia requires a lifelong treatment even when symtoms have died down or subsided , there are treatments with medications and psychological therapy. During severe crisis occurs ( when severe symptoms come up) hospilization may be necessary to make sure safety of the person with schizophrenia and make sure of a helthy diet and proper nutrition. Usally a psycaritrist experienced in treating schizophrenia ussly does or guides treatments and the treatment team usaly consist of many people such as a psycologist ,social worker, a cas manger to do and manage coordinante care , and a psycatric nurse, this full team apoach is avalibe at places or clinics where they specilzed wih people with the mental disorder schizophrenia. Medication is a huge factor in schizophrenia treatment but since there are big side affect people with schizophrenia are reluctant to take them according to an article written by mayo clinic staff. Antipsycotic medications are the medication most comanly used by practitioners , they are used to control symtoms by affecting the brain neurotransmitters , dopamine , and serotonin levels to equal them out so people with schizophrenia wont start to get crisis. There are conventional or first generation antipsycotic drugs for schizophrenia such as Chlorpromazine, Fluphenazine, Haloperidol (Haldol), and Perphenazine. These first generation drugs have frequent and signifigant side effects,
