Intranasal oxytocin reduces psychotic symptoms and improves Theory of Mind and social perception in schizophrenia
Abstract
Oxytocin has numerous prosocial and antipsychotic-like effects in animals. Prosocial effects of acute intranasal oxytocin administration have also been reported in human subjects. We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled trial testing the effects of twice daily intranasal oxytocin treatment for 14 days on psychotic symptoms and social cognition in patients with schizophrenia. PANSS scores declined significantly and several social cognition measures improved significantly or nearly significantly in oxytocin (N=11) but not placebo (N=9) recipients. Our results suggest that, in addition to reducing classic psychotic symptoms, oxytocin may diminish certain social cognition deficits that are not improved by current antipsychotic medications.

“The acute effects of intranasal OT that we found here resemble those found in many human studies, consisting of an increase in pro-social behavior and engagement (specifically time spent in contact in males)(13,15,64–66).”

“while some studies among patients with other psychiatric disorders (e.g., autism, alcohol use disorder) have utilized a repeated dosing strategy in the form of 1–3 daily doses, most of these studies are only 8 days or less (Dadds et al., 2014; Guastella et al., 2015; Pedersen et al., 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
