Previous studies have found immunoinflammatory abnormalities in the blood, cerebrospinal fluid, central nervous system, and neuroimaging of people with schizophrenia, along with therapeutic effects of anti-inflammatory drugs on schizophrenia. These evidences suggest a close relationship between schizophrenia and immunity and inflammation. Therefore, we consider that the state of immune inflammation is a potential subtype classification basis for schizophrenia, and hypothesize that immune classification based on peripheral-central multidimensional data is related to patient's response to medication and cognition.", 'detailedDescription': "This is a single-center prospective cohort study with longitudinal follow-up of patients with schizophrenia and cross-sectional data from healthy controls matched for sex and age. Participants who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will receive a 3-month follow-up with clinical information, biological samples, and imaging data collected at baseline, 1st and 3rd months. The aim of this project is to analyze peripheral-central immune-inflammatory performance and changes in patients with different clinical subtypes of schizophrenia through the use of scale assessments, biospecimen analysis, and imaging data. The Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) is used to evaluate the patient's clinical status; MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) is used to assess cognition; biological samples such as blood and cerebrospinal fluid are used for multi-omics including immunohistology, inflammation-related molecules, single-cell sequencing, and extracellular vesicles; multi-modal imaging scans are used to react to the brain's structure, function, water molecule diffusion properties, and magnetization; EEG is used to react to the electrophysiological situation."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Participants will be recruited from outpatient or inpatient departments.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
