Perceived needs and health-related quality of life in people with schizophrenia and metabolic syndrome: a “real-world” study | BMC Psychiatry | Full Text

The aim of the study was to compare perceived needs between groups with absence/presence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and to analyze the relationship between needs, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and MetS in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
