In this naturalistic study we investigated a sample of 809 antipsychotic-treated patients from Swedish psychosis outpatient teams. Cardiovascular risk factors (eg, metabolic syndrome, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, and low-density lipoprotein values) were measured, and their associations to current antipsychotic pharmacotherapy were studied. Ten antipsychotic drugs were compared in a stepwise logistic regression model. For the patients, the presence of the components of metabolic syndrome ranged from 35% for hyperglycemia to 64% for elevated waist circumference. Hypertriglyceridemia was associated with clozapine (odds ratio [OR] = 1.81, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.08每3.04), reduced high-density lipoprotein with both clozapine and olanzapine (OR = 1.73, 95% CI 1.01每2.97; and OR = 2.03, 95% CI 1.32每3.13), hypertension with perphenazine (OR = 2.00, 95% CI 1.21每3.59), and hyperglycemia inversely with ziprasidone (OR = 0.21, 95% CI 0.05每0.89) and positively with haloperidol (OR = 2.02, 95% CI 1.18每3.48). There were no significant relationships between any of the antipsychotic drugs and increased waist circumference, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, or low-density lipoprotein levels. In conclusion, treatment with antipsychotic drugs is differentially associated with cardiovascular risk factors, even after adjusting for waist circumference, sex, age, and smoking. %K adverse metabolic effects %K antipsychotic drugs %K cardiovascular risk factors %K HOMA-IR %K metabolic syndrome %U https://www.dovepress.com/a-comparison-of-cardiovascular-risk-factors-for-ten-antipsychotic-drug-peer-reviewed-article-NDT
