Neuronal Effects of Exercise in Schizophrenia

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Apr 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study plans to learn more about how common drugs prescribed to individuals with schizophrenia contribute to weight gain, as well as how exercise and diet impact appetite and the brain's response to food. In this study, the investigators will be evaluating how participants' brains respond to food images as well as asking questions about their food preferences and intake and clinical symptoms. The investigators may also ask participants to complete an exercise or diet intervention to see how this changes brain responses or food preferences.
