  1. Mean, standard deviation, median, and range are presented for gender, age, education, clinical, neuropsychological, and body weight variables. Legend: M Mean, SD Standard Deviation, Med Median, Rg Range of value, Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS), planning (revised shopping test, total time, errors), Working memory (Letter Digital Sequencing), Premorbid IQ (fNART, French version of National Adult Reading Test); Chlorpromazine equivalent dose (CPZ Eq). Group statistics were calculated with appropriate parametric vs. non-parametric tests.
