[Slowly-progressing schizophrenia and cyclothymic disorder with phobic manifestations in patients under a general practitioner's care].
A total of 90 patients were investigated in the general practice out-patient clinics. The patients had not been earlier studied by a psychiatrist and had unclear forms of endogenous diseases and phobic disorders: 70 patients with slow progredient schizophrenia, 20 with cyclothymia. Despite the phobic manifestations of slow progredient schizophrenia and cyclothymia being identical on the phenomenological level, their structure and time course were different. Favorable++ and unfavorable clinico-psychopathological prognostic signs were determined for each of the diseases. The principles of therapeutic and rehabilitation tactics are discussed with special reference to the patients with slow progredient schizophrenia and cyclothymia with phobic disorders in primary health care units. Out-patient group was compared to the patients of dispensary departments.
