Introduction
Introduction Persecuted paranoia is a chronic disease that is dominated by systematic, organized delusions. The prevalence rate is estimated to be about 0.03%. The incidence rate is not the gender difference between men and women, and it is mostly in the middle or late stage of adulthood. The paranoia of delusional patients is non-weird, which means that the content will involve contextual situations that can occur in daily life, such as being tracked, poisoned, admired, deceived or framed by family members. In general, delusional patients do not have hallucinations, and a small number of hallucinations or olfactory hallucinations associated with delusional themes.
