INTRODUCTIONThis is the case of Mr. R.F., 32 years old
male client that was admitted at MarivelesMental hospital last March 6, 2013 andwas diagnosed with undifferentiated
schizophrenia. The patient was admitted atthe Acute Crisis Intervention Service( ACIS ) due to the complaints of the
informant that the client harms otherpeople, stabbed his uncle, has poor sleep,refuses to take medications and isirritable.

One of the most positive areas of
schizophrenia research today is
in the area of identification ofearly risk factors for
development of schizophrenia,
and prevention of schizophrenia
in those people who are
predisposed to the disease.(source:NeuropsychiatryReview)

There are 5 subtypes ofschizophrenia naming; paranoid,
disorganized, catatonic,undifferentiated, and residual.Paranoid type is characterized by
persecutory or grandiose delusions,hallucinations and occasionallyexcessive religiosity hostility andaggressive behaviour. Disorganized
type is characterized by inappropriateor flat affect, disorganized speech anddisorganized behaviour.

The catatonic is characterized bymarked psychomotor disturbance,either motionless or excessive motoractivity. Motor immobility may bemanifested by waxy flexibility or
stupor. Excessive motor activity isapparently purposeless and notinfluenced by external stimuli. Other
features include extreme negativism,echolalia, echopraxia or even mutism.

The residual is characterized by theabsence of prominent delusions,
hallucinations, disorganized speechand grossly disorganized or catatonic
behavior. Our client was classified and
diagnosed as schizophrenia,undifferentiated type. Which means,that she demonstrated mixed
schizophrenic symptoms of others butnot enough of them to define itsparticular type.

Schizophrenia undifferentiated isthe type of schizophrenia wherein
characteristic symptoms (delusions.Hallucinations, disorganized speech,grossly disorganized or catatonic
behavior, and negative symptoms)are present, but criteria for paranoid,catatonic, or disorganized subtypes
are not met.

According to AmericanAccreditation HealthCareCommission risk factors of
schizophrenia are thefollowing:

AGESchizophrenia can occur at any age, but it tends tofirst develop (or at least become evident) betweenadolescence and young adulthood. Schizophrenia inchildren is likely to be severe. Although the risk ofschizophrenia declines with age, its incidence has
been known to peak in those who are about 45years old, and again in people who are in their mid-60s (mostly women). Late-onset schizophrenia thatdevelops in the 40s is most likely to be the paranoidsubtype with fewer negative symptoms or learningimpairment. Such patients usually have functionedat a near-normal level until structural deficits in the
brain break down.

GENDERAlthough schizophrenia affects both men and women,there are some differences:Men tend to developschizophrenia between the ages of 15 - 24. Paranoidschizophrenia may be more common in men, andsymptoms tend to be more severe.The onset in womenis usually slightly later, between ages 25 - 34, and thesymptoms tend to be less severe. The earlier a girl startsmenstruation, the longer she is protected againstschizophrenia. Schizophrenia is more severe during awoman's menstrual cycle when estrogen levels are low.Such findings and other evidence suggest that estrogenmay have nerve-protecting properties. For example, thehigher the estrogen levels in female patients withschizophrenia, the better their mental functions.

INTELLIGENCEPeople with schizophrenia span the full
range of intelligence. In fact, one studyreported that a higher than expectednumber of people who develop
schizophrenia had been intellectuallygifted children. Research suggests,however, that a decline in IQ scores
during childhood may be a sign ofpotential psychotic symptoms in adults.

CULTURAL AND GEOGRAPHICFACTORSNo cultural or geographic group is immune
from schizophrenia, although the course ofthe disease seems to be more severe indeveloped countries. However, the content
of delusions may vary depending on aperson's culture. According to one study,European patients were more apt to have
delusions of poisoning or religious guiltwhile in Japan the delusions were mostoften related to being slandered.

SOCIOECONOMIC FACTORSSchizophrenia occurs twice as often in
unmarried and divorced people as in marriedor widowed individuals. Furthermore, peoplewith schizophrenia are eight times more likelyto be in the lowest socioeconomic groups.
However, these findings are likely to be aresult of schizophrenia rather than a cause.Nevertheless, low income and poverty
increases the risk for delayed diagnosis andtreatment, and such delays could lead to moresevere disease in patients with fewerresources.

FAMINE AND MALNUTRITIONPrenatal malnutrition may also play a role in thedevelopment of schizophrenia. Some studies havefound that people who are born during times offamine are more than twice as likely to developschizophrenia as those born during years ofadequate food. The association between famineand schizophrenia illustrates how environmentaland biologic factors are connected. For example,scientists think that malnourished mothers may notget enough folate in their diet. Folate is amicronutrient important for genetic processes.Folate deficiencies may cause genetic mutations inthe developing fetus that can lead to schizophrenia.

OTHER FACTORS ASSOCIATEDWITH SCHIZOPHRENIABeing Left- or Mixed-Handed. The rateof left-handedness or mixed-handedness issignificantly higher among patients withschizophrenia than the general population.
This suggests that some neurologic patternthat may be responsible for each. (A largeminority of the population is non-right
handed, and very few of these peopledevelop schizophrenia.)

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)affects a significant number of schizophrenic
patients. OCD is an anxiety disorder markedby obsessions (recurrent or persistent mentalimages, thoughts, or ideas) that may result in
compulsive behaviors, repetitive, rigid, andself-prescribed routines that are intended toprevent the manifestation of the obsession.Some doctors believe the behaviors exhibitedin the disorder may actually be protective inpeople with schizophrenia in early stages.

Behavioral and Motor Problems inChildhood.
Children who later developschizophrenia often suffer from thefollowing certain problems, including
excessive shyness or minor earlyphysical and motor-control problems.Such problems are so common,
however, that their presence without anyother risk factors is no cause for concern.

Fathers Age.According to some studies, the older a
father is when a child is born, the greaterthe risk is for schizophrenia in hisoffspring, perhaps because of a greater
chance of genetic mutations in the spermthat can be passed on. In one study,children of fathers who were 50 years
old or more faced a three-fold risk forschizophrenia compared to children offathers who were 25 or younger.

Epilepsy.A family history of epilepsy increases
the chance for developing schizophreniaor similar psychosis. Scientists think thatepilepsy and schizophrenia may share
similar genetic or environmental factors.(www.urac.org).

Schizophrenia is a severe formof mental illness affecting about
7 per thousand of the adultpopulation, mostly in the agegroup 15-35 years. Though theincidence is low (3-10,000), the
prevalence is high due to
chronicity (www.hon.ch).

Ninety-five percent (95%)suffer a lifetime; thirty-three
percent (33%) of all homelessAmericans suffer from
schizophrenia; fifty percent(50%) experience serious sideeffects from medications; and
ten percent (10%) killthemselves (Keltner, 2007).

According to study done 697,543 out of86,241,697 of Filipinos or approximately0.8% are suffering from schizophrenia
(cureresearch.com).There are 697,543 cases of schizophrenia inthe Philippines, 75% are males and the restare females. And 51 million peopleworldwide suffer from schizophrenia inwhich males have the most number ofpercent. This statistics shows that males have
the greater risk to develop psychiatricdisorder such as schizophrenia because oftheir lifestyle and keeping their emotions.
