Abstract:Objective To compare the effects of Liberman rehabilitation therapy and acupoint application on executive function and social function in patients with schizophrenia. Methods Sixty patients with schizophrenia in Xi’an Mental Health Center from June 2018 to June 2019 were selected as the research subjects. According to the random number table method, they were divided into rehabilitation group and acupoint group, with 30 patients in each group. On the basis of conventional drug therapy in the department of psychiatry, the rehabilitation group was treated with Liberman rehabilitation treatment, and the acupoint group was treated with acupoint application. The treatment courses were all 12 weeks. Cognitive function rating (Stroop) and social function rating scale (SDSS) were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results Before treatment, there was no statistical significance in Stroop scores between the two groups (P > 0.05). After treatment, the scores of Stroop words and Stroop color words in the rehabilitation group were higher than those before treatment, with statistically significant differences (all P < 0.05), while there was no statistical significance in Stroop word color in the rehabilitation group compared with before treatment (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in Stroop scores in the acupoint group compared with before treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, the scores of Stroop words and Stroop color words in the rehabilitation group were higher than those in the acupoint group, with statistically significant differences (all P < 0.05), while there was no significant difference in Sroop word color between the two groups (P > 0.05). Before and after treatment, there was no statistical significance in SDSS scores between the two groups (P > 0.05). After treatment, the scores of social withdrawal, social activities within the family, social activities outside the family, social activities within the family and family function in the rehabilitation group were all lower than before treatment, with statistically significant differences (all P < 0.05). Social withdrawal in acupoint group was lower than that before treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Both Liberman rehabilitation training and acupoint application can improve the patients’ executive function and social function, but the effect of Liberman rehabilitation training is better than acupoint application.
