A case study on the clinical picture of frontotemporal dementia and the differential diagnostic problems will be described.
A case study based on the clinical picture and the short term course we describe diagnostic problems in a case of Morbus Pick.
The authors give an actual survey about suicides and suicide rates in Germany, Bavaria and Upper Frankonia. Their special interest are significant trends in the last years. These trends will be shown and shortly described.

Abstract. Mortality has often been regarded as a measure for overall outcome and both treatment and drug policy effectiveness. The number of deaths by illegal drugs from the years 1990 - 2000 in Bavaria were analysed using statistical trend tests (Spearman rho and Kendall tau). In Bavaria in general (p = 0.014) as well as in 5 out of seven counties a significant increase in drug related mortality was found.
