In the general population the\n                           schizophrenia phenotype includes a cognitive deficit and a decline in\n                           academic performance preceding the first episode of psychosis in a\n                           subgroup of patients. Findings of cross-sectional studies suggest that\n                           cognitive abilities may decline over time in some children with 22q11.2\n                           deletion syndrome.
