Neuropsychological profiles in first-episodes psychosis and their relationship with clinical, metacognition and social cognition variables.
Article in European archives of psychiatry and clinical neuroscience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
An increasing interest in the assessment of neuropsychological performance variability in people with first-episode psychosis (FEP) has emerged. However, its association with clinical and functional outcomes requires further study. Furthermore, FEP neuropsychological subgroups have not been characterized by clinical insight or metacognition and social cognition domains. The aim of this exploratory study was to identify specific groups of patients with FEP based on neuropsychological variables and to compare their sociodemographic, clinical, metacognition and social cognition profiles. A sample of 149 FEP was recruited from adult mental health services. Neuropsychological performance was assessed by a neuropsychological battery (WAIS-III; TMT; WSCT; Stroop Test; TAVEC). The assessment also included sociodemographic characteristics, clinical, functional, metacognition and social cognition variables. Two distinct neuropsychological profiles emerged: one neuropsychological impaired cluster (N = 56) and one relatively intact cluster (N = 93). Significant differences were found between both profiles in terms of sociodemographic characteristics (age and level of education) (p = 0.001), clinical symptoms (negative, positive, disorganized, excitement and anxiety) (p = 0.041-0.001), clinical insight (p = 0.038-0.017), global functioning (p = 0.014), as well as in social cognition domains (emotional processing and theory of mind) (p = 0.001; p = 0.002). No significant differences were found in metacognitive variables (cognitive insight and 'jumping to conclusions' bias). Relationship between neurocognitive impairment, social cognition and metacognition deficits are discussed. Early identifying of neuropsychological profiles in FEP, characterized by significant differences in clinical and social cognition variables, could provide insight into the prognosis and guide the implementation of tailored early-intervention.
