Structured cognitive assessment was infrequent, and clinicians largely relied on the dementia oriented Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) rather than schizophrenia specific tools, citing time, training, and unclear actionability as key barriers. CIAS imposed broad humanistic, clinical, societal, and economic burden \u2013 poorer quality of life, social isolation, higher comorbidities, increased hospital days and health care costs, and heavy informal care. Consensus actions prioritized the development of brief, validated screening instruments, improved psychoeducation, and accelerated research into effective pharmacological and non pharmacological interventions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0924933826122081_sec4\" sec-type=\"conclusions\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These results provide additional evidence for the under-recognition of CIAS worldwide, despite its substantial multidimensional societal burden. The use of dementia-oriented cognitive tests carries significant risks of misclassification and inappropriate management. Therefore, improving awareness, implementing assessment guidelines, and accelerating therapeutic innovation is critical to improve the quality of life of CIAS patients and the wider community.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1192\/j.eurpsy.2026.12208","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T04:25:22Z","timestamp":1777350322000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Understanding the burden of cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia: Results from the international LUCIA study"],"prefix":"10.1192","volume":"69","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7254-5646","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christoph U.","family":"Correll","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/01ff5td15","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra\/Northwell"},{"name":"Northwell"},{"name":"Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Charit\u00e9 Berlin"},{"name":"German Center for Mental Health (DZPG)"},{"name":"German Center for Child and Adolescent Health (DZKJ)"},{"name":"Einstein Center for Population Diversity (ECPD)"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1592-7656","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Silvana","family":"Galderisi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/02kqnpp86","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1448-8003","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maite","family":"Art\u00e9s","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Adelphi Targis S.
