Background: Relapse rates remain high among people with mental disorders. The family plays a crucial role in helping people with mental disorders prevent relapse. However, providing support often has challenges due to the family's lack of knowledge in dealing with schizophrenia patients. Purpose: To provide an overview of family support in the prevention of relapse in patients with mental disorders at the public health center in Malawi. Methods: This study used a quantitative method with a descriptive research design. A total sample of 39 families of people with mental disorders who had no history of relapse was the population of the study. Results: The results of this study showed that the majority of family members provide adequate family support (92.3%) and 7.7% provide poor support to individuals with mental disorders. The average age of respondents was 42 years; the majority were women (56.4%), Maluku ethnicity (28.3%), and extended family type (66.7%). Conclusion: The majority of family support for individuals with mental disorders is well supported to prevent relapse. The government needs to pay attention to the families of patients with mental disorders to prevent relapse.

“…Another study in Surabaya, Indonesia, depicted that providing psychoeducation to the patient's family about schizophrenia and the importance of medication adherence is crucial for the patient's long-term well-being. By understanding the condition and its treatment, family members can become active partners in supporting the patient's adherence to medication, thereby improving symptom management, preventing relapse, and enhancing the patient's overall quality of life (Jessica et al, 2021).…”

Mental healthcare services for people with mental illness have enhanced healthy family relationships, friendships, and even interaction with colleagues at work for persons receiving the care services. Many factors influence the practice of the mental health profession, including family involvement, social support, and coordinated comprehensive care. This research aimed to explore the role of family and community in the practice of care for people with schizophrenia in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Methods: This was qualitative research conducted in 2021, with interviews and Focus Group Discussions as data collection methods. The participants included eight family members of individuals with confirmed schizophrenia and members of the local community. The analysis employed an inductive thematic analysis to explore various roles in mental health handling. Results: Kinship patterns, cultural values, and religious practice greatly influence care. Care is generally perceived as an act of assistance to functional limitations. It often becomes an area of negotiation in the family and community, particularly on the issues of finances, roles, and responsibilities, and on how the method of care should be delivered. In some cases, families with their social capital created a care network that enables the community's support system. On the other hand, the community also has a formal and informal social organization to advocate for adequate treatment. Conclusion: Community and family support for persons with schizophrenia is an essential factor for optimal treatment. Nevertheless, there is a need to improve knowledge and awareness of mental health in the community to ensure proper treatment is delivered.

Highlights:1. The NLR value can show the role of neuroinflammation in schizophrenic patients.2. Meloxicam as adjuvant therapy can improve negative symptoms and changes in the NLR in schizophrenic patients. AbstractIntroduction: Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is a simple and affordable marker of inflammation that has recently been widely used to assess systemic inflammation in psychiatric patients. This study aimed to determine and analyze the effectiveness of meloxicam as adjuvant therapy to improve negative symptoms and changes in the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in schizophrenic patients. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study using a single-blind, pretest–post-test design. Subjects were determined using a purposive sampling technique based on inclusion criteria. This study examined 34 samples and divided them into two groups. The treatment group consisted of 17 subjects who received adjuvant therapy with meloxicam 15 mg/day for 4 weeks and 17 subjects in the control group. Data collection was obtained from medical records, interviews, field notes, positive scale, negative scale, and general psychopathology scale (PANSS) assessment sheets, and blood NLR examinations. Data analysis used SPSS 25.0.Results: The negative subscale PANSS score in the treatment group decreased lower than in the control group, with p-value = 0.640. However, the decrease in NLR values was more significant in the treatment group than in the control group, with p-value = 0.094. There was a decrease in the negative subscale PANSS scores and clinical NLR scores, but it was not statistically significant.Conclusion: Adjuvant therapy with Meloxicam, given once a day for four weeks, had an effect on decreasing the negative subscale PANSS score and NLR scores for schizophrenic patients at Dr. Arif Zainudin Regional Mental Hospital (RSJD), Surakarta, clinically, but it was not statistically significant.
