  1. *Estimated by applying the ordinal logistic regression model with the dependent variable as dose received during the current visit interval and the listed predictors. Previous dose was fit into the model as a categorical variable, with associated coefficients capturing effects of specific dose level versus "reference" dose (results were highly significant as to be expected and are not shown here for the sake of the space).
  2. ** YMRS total scores range from 0–60. PANSS total scores range from 30 to 210.
