[An MMPI subscale for assessment alexithymia in duodenal ulcer patients].

We measured the alexithymia by the Kleiger-Kinsman scale in 36 patients with D.U.D. We employed 34 patients with irritables Bowel Syndrome and 30 patients with chronic organic pathologia as control groups. Our results show two possible conclusions: 1) The absence alexithymia's specificity in our ulcerous patients and/or the incapacity of this M.M.P.I.'s subescale to discriminate this feature in the psichosomatic diseases.

[Personality and aggressiveness in cancer patients].

The authors studied the Personality and Aggressiveness of fifty-three cancer patients by using MMPI and the Instrument I for the Aggressiveness Measurements. The common characteristics in all of then were that they suffered solid tumors, were submitted to hospital treatments and had an absence of psychiatric illness in their personal history. Among the results that stand out most is the sensations of change that the patients experience due to their own illness, the hospitalization and the treatments which they undergo. There exists on increase of self-aggressiveness or a decrease of hetero-aggressiveness which predominates the scales of depression and social introversion, with a decrease of inner strength. In any case, the neuroticism and the dependence are increased and there are decreases in the scales of psychopathic deviation and domination. The four psychosis is staying normal, the hysteria is decreased in men and the hypochondria is increased in women. The defence mechanism that predominates are the denial and the avoidance reaction.

[Psychopathologic aspects of cancer in gynecology. Cancer of the breast].

We study 31 female patients diagnosed and treated with the usual method for breast cancer. We use the clinical report and psychobiography, Instrument I to measure the aggressivity and M.M.P.I. The most significant results are: slowness in the first examination, influence of psychosomatic life events and spontaneous signs during the interviews, increase of autoaggressivity, and raising of the neurotic triad, dependence and introversion. It is clear from this statement the general conclusion of this patients having a want of contact so that their psychological signs don't develop into psychopathological.

[Relationship between psychiatric emergencies and meteorologic factors].

Man's environment, natural as well as artificial, may exert a pathogenic influence on man's life, according to which we could divide the population in meteorosensitive (about 60%) and non meteorosensitive. Psychic patients and patients who suffer from certain organic diseases are those ones who more frequently behave as meteorosensitive. We accept this as starting point of our work. In our paper we analysed statistically the relation among different cosmo-meteorologic factors in the incidence of psychiatric emergencies during two years separated by five years and the probable existence of seasonal rhythms in the different studied diagnostic categories. As well as partial results for every diagnostic category we elaborate as final conclusion that these relations have a multifactorial character, that is to say, there are several factors that interact to unchain certain pathology in meteorosensitive people. We emphasize the existence of seasonal cycles in certain psychiatric syndromes. These conclusions are seen specially in personality disorders, suicide attempts, anxiety crisis and disorders, drug addictions and psycho-organic diseases.

[Psychosomatics and cancer].

The cancerous patient who suffers a coinciding psychiatric illness shows, according to the M.M.P.I., signs of a depressive personality with marked introversion and dependence. The aggressivity test shows that self-aggressiveness coincides with inhibition and lethargy tone. An accumulation of stress factors and events stand out in patients with depression (72%), which do not appear in those patients diagnosed as having neuroses and schizophrenia. There is a need for psychiatric attention which contributes to treating the patient interdepartmentally; thus relieving both the moral and physical pain which these patients suffer.
