[Neurosis-like disorders in endogenous psychoses].

An analysis of the clinical aspects in 156 patients with schizophrenia and 48 patients with maniac-depressive syndrome revealing symptoms in the form of neurasthenic, hysteric, obsessive and other effective manifestations allowed to establish an essential difference of neurosis-like disorders according to forms of schizophrenia at older age, in larved depressions within the limits of maniac-depressive psychosis. For precision of the nosological diagnosis of schizophrenia the authors based their conclusions on characteristic of this disease positive and negative psychopathological disorders with emphasis of thinking disorders ("atactic thinking") and peculiar changes of personality (apathetic-abulic defect).

[Effect of pyridoxine on the psychopathology and pathochemistry of involutional depressions].

In agreement with the catecholamine hypotheses of affective disorders the main role in the pathogenesis of depressive states is allocated to the central "noradrenergic insufficiency". The author thinks it feasible to use pyridoxine (vit. B6) in the treatment of depressive states, inasmuch as it is involved in the process of catecholamine synthesis as a cofactor of DOPA-decarboxylase. The author examined 48 patients among which 31 were with involutional melancholia and 17 with manic-depressive psychoses, manifesting after 40 years. Along with a positive therapeutical effect there was an increase in the noradrenaline excretion and a drop in the relative adrenaline content.
