Estudio multitemporal de los factores asociados a la Esquizofrenia en los cantones de Macará y Huaquillas

Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder that generates bio-psychosocial disability to those who suffer from it, affecting approximately 24 million people worldwide. From here lies the importance of this epidemiological investigation in the cantons of Macará and Huaquillas of Ecuador, because it allows knowing the incidence of schizophrenia in factors such as: age, sex, population area of residence and year of care. The methodology is quantitative, with a nonexperimental cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 564 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and its subtypes between the ages of 0 to 100 years, selected using the nonprobabilistic and convenience sampling technique, evaluated in the SPSS Statistics program, version 22 with the correlation coefficient formula of Kendall's tau-c. It was determined that schizophrenia manifested itself in adulthood, with little distinction between the sexes, in the urban area, determining the majority of consultations in the year 2021. In addition, a statistical relationship was found between schizophrenia with the variables: year of care, age and population area of residence; on the other hand, no relationship was found with the sex variable. Finally, it was determined that in the subtypes of the schizophrenic disorder there was a higher incidence of paranoid schizophrenia with 56.6%, followed by schizophrenia without specification with 29.4%, and the least incident was residual schizophrenia with 0.5%
