Figure 2
Figure 2 Comparison of symptom improvement profiles. aP < 0.05, bP < 0.01 (intra-group vs baseline); cP < 0.05 (inter-group comparison at matched time points). A: Positive symptom scores (PANSS) pre/post intervention; B: PANSS scores (negative symptoms) pre- and post-intervention across groups; C: Modifications in PANSS general psychiatric symptom scores before/after treatment.

A: Changes in positive symptom scores (pre- vs post-intervention); B: Changes in negative symptom scores (pre- vs post-intervention); C: Total score variations across study periods.
