[Structure of psychological needs of patients over 60 years of age, hospitalized for ischemic heart disease complicated by asthenic- depressive syndrome, and in healthy persons].

Using psychotherapy methods such as MMPI-Wiskad, ACL-37 and 16PF the patterns of psychological needs were studied in postproductive-age subjects with ischaemic heart disease complicated or not with asthenia-depression syndrome and in healthy subjects. Statistical analysis showed that in relation to old people with ischaemic heart disease or without it patients with ischaemic heart disease and depression with asthenia showed a higher psychological sensitivity and their needs were concentrated around the need for self-manifestation, aid-seeking and taking care of oneself. In old people a tendency was maintained for persistence of psychological needs in the previously formulated forms.

[Psychosomatic factors in a population of men who have pulmonary tuberculosis at a young age and are full of strength].

The structure of anxiety and fear was studied in young men in good condition after three months of chemotherapy given for pulmonary tuberculosis, correlating the results with the effects of chemotherapy (sputum-negativity achieved or not achieved during the treatment). With age the aggressiveness was found to increase and the resistance to the threat decreased. This correlation was particularly evidence in the subgroups of men in whom sputum-negativity was not achieved. These findings suggest hypotheses requiring verification.

[Dynamics of somatic and psychic symptoms in patients hospitalized for pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with neurotic anxiety reactions during antituberculous treatment].

The dynamics of the somatic and psychic symptoms was studied in patients hospitalized for pulmonary tuberculosis complicated or not with neurotic anxiety reactions and in patients with this tuberculosis complicated with diabetes. As a result of comparative analysis a significant diminution of psychic resistance was noted in patients with neurotic anxiety reactions during pulmonary tuberculosis, which probably reduced the probability of achieving sputum-negativity at expected term. These observations suggest the necessity for an explanatory hypothesis. Attention is called to the necessity of raising of the importance of elementary psychotherapy in phthisiatric practice.

[The temperamental basis of personality and the degree of tuberculosis progression and its treatment in epidemiological studies].

Using a Sheet of personality Self-estimation of Le Senne eight subgroups were isolated from a group of patients with sputum-positive pulmonary tuberculosis, and analogous subgroups were isolated from healthy subjects which served as control subgroups. By the inquiry method and by the Test of Sentence Completion IG the clinical form of tuberculosis, degree of pulmonary tissue damage, extent and location of pulmonary lesions, and the intensity of conflict areas were determined. The statistical analysis showed that no temperament type was an epidemiological barrier protecting the organism against invasion by and development of M. tuberculosis. As compared to other temperament types the sentimentalists showed most intense conflict areas which was reflected in antituberculosis treatment. Attention is called to the usefulness of psychological testing for epidemiological studies on tuberculosis and to the necessity of their more widespread use in the programmes of postgraduate studies.
