ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Persons with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and bipolar affective disorder in Minnesota are dying much younger than their age- and sex-matched cohorts. A new initiative, MN 10 By 10, is designed to engage key constituencies in addressing modifiable risk factors in order to lengthen these individuals' lives.
