    Abstract: The attenuated positive symptoms syndrome (APSS) is considered an at-risk indicator for psychosis. However, the characteristics and developmental aspects of the combined or enriched risk criteria of APSS and basic symptom (BS) criteria, including self-experienced cognitive disturbances (COGDIS) remain under-researched. Method Based on the Structured Interview of Prodromal Syndromes (SIPS), the prevalence of APSS in 13- to 35-year-old individuals seeking help in an early recognition program for schizophrenia and bipolar-spectrum disorders was examined. BS criteria and COGDIS were rated using the Schizophrenia Proneness Instrument for Adults/Children and Youth. Participants meeting APSS criteria were compared with participants meeting only BS criteria across multiple characteristics. Co-occurrence (APSS+/BS+, APSS+/COGDIS+) was compared across 13–17, 18–22 and 23–35 years age groups. Results Of 175 individuals (age = 20.6 ± 5.8, female = 38.3%), 94 (53.7%) met APSS criteria. Compared to BS, APSS status was associated with suicidality, higher illness severity, lower functioning, higher SIPS positive, negative, disorganized and general symptoms scores, depression scores and younger age (18.3 ± 5.0 v. 23.2 ± 5.6 years, p 〈 0.0001) with age-related differences in the prevalence of APSS (ranging from 80.3% in 13- to 17-year-olds to 33.3% in 23- to 35-year-olds (odds ratio 0.21, 95% confidence interval 0.11–0.37). Within APSS+ individuals, fewer adolescents fulfilled combined risk criteria of APSS+/BS+ or APSS+/COGDIS+ compared to the older age groups. Conclusions APSS status was associated with greater suicidality and illness/psychophathology severity in this help-seeking cohort, emphasizing the need for clinical care. The age-related differences in the prevalence of APSS and the increasing proportion of APSS+/COGDIS+ may point to a higher proportion of non-specific/transient, rather than risk-specific attenuated positive symptoms in adolescents.

    Abstract: The construct of a clinical high-risk (CHR) state of psychosis has been established to describe potentially prodromal symptoms which typically appear during adolescence and young adulthood. This is a very sensitive developmental period and the clinical high risk (CHR) is associated with increased functional impairment. To address the specialities in the care for this patient population a specialized outpatient care unit for early intervention in psychosis at the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Psychiatric University Hospital, of the University Zürich (CAPS) is established. The interdisciplinary team (psychiatrists and psychologists) supports children and adolescents with psychotic disorders or at clinical high risk for developing psychosis. The early intervention service offers specialized assessment, treatment and case management for minors with a first psychosis or CHR-state in an outpatient or inpatient setting as well as by day clinic care. Objectives The evaluation main objective was to get a better understanding about this vulnerable patient group. Therefore we analysed the clinical data about CHR-state, comorbid diagnosis, treatment, medication and hospitalisation of the patients who entered the service for early intervention in psychosis. Methods Participants who entered the service for early intervention in psychosis were followed up in the years 2017-2021 and descriptive analysis was used to summarize the data. For the evaluation of the risk construct the participants have been classified in “no increased risk”, “CHR” or “early onset psychosis” (EOP). Additionally, ICD diagnosis, demographics and treatment (medication, psychotherapy, treatment setting) were assessed. Therapy was either psychotherapy and/or group training called DBT2P (Dialectical behavioral group training for adolescents, to prevent psychiatric disorders). Additionally, the use of a smartphone application “Robin Z”(add-on treatment tool to support the patients between the sessions) was assessed. Results In the last five years we saw 300 patients (112 female, mean age 15.7) who sought the care unit for early intervention. The evaluation of the risk showed that 44 patients had no increased risk, 205 were classified with a CHR and 51 fulfilled the criteria of an early onset psychosis (18.5%). Most of the patients showed comorbid diagnosis, mainly depressive disorders (42%). The data about the treatment will be analyzed for the congress. Conclusions Despite clinical implications, there is little data about early detection and early intervention in psychosis for children and adolescent. Therefore, the evaluation of the clinical data of the CAPS is of clinical importance and expected to add essential information in the fields of prevention and early intervention in psychosis.
