50% stenosis) was 7%. The significant difference between the two groups was in the terms of hypertension (p-value 0.014), female gender (p-value 0.021), multivessel (> 2 vessels) coronary artery disease (p-value 0.046), normal coronaries had a significant negative association with RAS (p-value 0.027) and there was a significant relationship between atherosclerotic involvement of Left anterior descending artery (LAD), Diagonal, and right coronary artery (RCA) with RAS (p-value 0.037, 0.041 and 0.042). Conclusion: It could be concluded that predictors of RAS were hypertension, multivessel coronary artery disease (> 2 vessels) and female gender. ]]>

18 years old who were attending the hospital for regular follow up were included in this study. From the selected patients full medical history was obtained including: name, age, gender, occupation, educational status, history of the psychiatric disease, duration, medical treatment and times of hospitalization. Cultural and social standard and degree of family support was also collected. Patients’ insight was measured by the Schedule for Assessment of Insight-Expanded Version (SAI–E) translated into Arabic by Marwa Abdelgawad. The degree of medication adherence was measured by using Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS).
RESULTS:There was no significant correlation between patients’ insight and patients’ ages, duration of illness and hospitalization times with p-value: 0.69, 0.61 and 0.07 respectively. In addition, there was no significant association between medication adherence and age, duration of illness, number of hospitalization, gender, social level and family support with p-value: 0.575, 0.678, 0.566, 0.945, 0.091 and 0.360 respectively. Our results showed a strong positive correlation between insight and medication adherence with p-value: < 0.0001.
CONCLUSION: Insight and adherence were found to be closely related, low insight was associated with poor adherence in patients with schizophrenia. Moreover, these results should be used to establish a strategy for improving the prognosis of chronic schizophrenia.]]>
