AIM: In this study we investigated sleep and circadian rhythm, functioning and psychopathological symptoms in @entity1 with @entity161 . We looked for answers to the following questions: What percentage of @entity1 with @entity161 after a therapeutic process in the daily psychiatric ward suffers from @entity22 and excessive @entity25 ? What factors influence the functioning of @entity1 with @entity161 . METHODS: 23 @entity1 and 23 healthy controls matched for age and sex (14 @entity1 , 9 @entity1 ; mean age 40.5 +/- 13.66) were examined. All subjects filled out sleep diaries, underwent actigraphy for 7 days, and ratings with scales for the assessment of sleep quality, @entity25 , general clinical state and the degree of improvement, presence and severity of @entity308 , @entity137 . RESULTS: Moderate @entity22 was found in 6 (26%), severe @entity22 in 2 (8%) @entity1 . Four @entity1 (17%) suffered from severe @entity25 . Actigraphy showed a low activity level that had influence on the functioning of @entity1 . The functioning of the @entity1 was most negatively influenced by negative symptoms of @entity161 and @entity137 . Older @entity1 and those who were ill for a longer time presented more @entity137 and they were more @entity308 . The @entity1 spent more time in bed and had longer sleep time than healthy controls. The @entity1 presented highest activity at the time of therapeutic activities. CONCLUSIONS: Despite improvement of psychopathological symptoms, many @entity1 with @entity161 still present low daytime activity and clinically significant @entity22 and/or @entity25 , which deteriorates their functioning.
