Summary

This study looks at heart electrical patterns (ECGs) in 240 people hospitalized for methamphetamine use, comparing those with and without psychosis. Researchers will check ECGs at admission and before discharge to see if psychosis is linked to more heart strain. The goal is to better understand cardiac risks in this population.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors identify which methamphetamine users are at higher risk for heart problems, leading to better monitoring and care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly change care. Results may not apply to all users, and ECG changes may not predict real-world heart events.

The Healthy Control (HC) group consisted of adult male individuals without current or past psychiatric disorders and without substance use disorders, matched to patient groups in terms of age and body mass index. HCs had no significant medical illnesses.
