Key Words Tardive dyskinesia; Depression; Chronic schizophrenia; Insomnia; Mediation effect; Gender differences
Core Tip This study of 669 Chinese patients with chronic schizophrenia demonstrates that tardive dyskinesia (TD) is associated with increased depressive severity, with insomnia partially mediating this relationship (accounting for 38% of the total effect). Gender differences were identified: Female patients with TD exhibited more severe overall depression, greater diurnal variation, and increased psychomotor retardation, whereas male patients with TD differed from non-TD males only in diurnal variation. These findings point to the critical need for systematic evaluation of insomnia and depression in the TD patient population and highlight the need for gender-specific interventions to optimize care in this vulnerable population.
