[Pupillary reactions in neurotic disorders].

For the differentiation of neurotic disorders, the indices of pupilary reactions and hippus were studied. The study was performed with the aid of a pupillograph. A comparison of the pupillographic data in patients with borderline neurotic disorders of the 3 main groups (asthenic, obsessive-phobic and hysterical), demonstrated statistically significant differences in the control group and within the group with different forms of neurotic disorders. The quantitive and informative characteristics of the pupilary reactions and some regular tendencies in the characteristic of the hippus may help in the solution of one of the main problems of borderline psychiatry, an improved diagnosis.

[Neurotic disorders in monkeys during increased stress on analytic-synthetic processes].

It has been shown in experiments on three rhesus monkeys that an enhanced stress of analytical-synthetic processes consisting in learning to differentiate a sequence of tones, leads to neurotic disorders of monkeys higher nervous activity. They are manifested individually and consist in disturbances of general behaviour, in forced movements, breakdowns of differentiations, the missing of positive responses in the previously elaborated conditioned stereotype and in typical dynamics of the formation of positive and negative conditioned reflexes to a chain of tones (2000 + + 4000 c/s; 2000 + 2000 c/s; 4000 + 2000 c/s; 4000 + 4000 c/s).

Controlled comparison of day-hospital and outpatient treatment for neurotic disorders.

106 patients with anxiety, phobic, and depressive neuroses referred to the outpatient clinics of 6 psychiatrists were randomly assigned to outpatient care or two forms of psychiatric day care. Ratings of symptoms and social adjustment were recorded before treatment and after 4 and 8 months in 89 patients. There were no important differences in the outcome of day care and outpatient treatment although patients were more satisfied with the outpatient service. Because outpatient care is more economical of time and personnel it should be preferred to psychiatric day care for many neurotic disorders.

[Incidence and significance of anamnestically indicated neurotic disorders in young applicants for flight training].

The histories of 17 years old clinically normal subjects show that 10% of them had functional disturbances or abnormalities in behaviour which are not to be considered as indications of latent neurotic development. Significant differences in EEG, size distribution, and reaction of the circulatory system during psycho-emotional stress (low-pressure chamber testing) may indicate a disharmonious physical maturation with increased disposition to circulatory lability and psychological abnormalities. The good intellectual performances and the favourable prognosis with regard to flight training are reasons for not disqualifying this group of applicants.

[The distribution of blood groups (ABO, Rh-factor, MNS) in psychic disorders (author's transl)].

1. 942 resp. 821 patients with psychic disorders (843 resp. 339 patients with neurotic disorders, 443 resp. 191 patients with manic-depressive psychoses, 436 resp. 193 patients with schizophrenic psychoses, 220 resp. 98 patients with organic syndromes) are compared with regard to the distribution of the ABO blood groups and the Rh-Factor with 5.000 normal controls and of the MNS blood group with the expected distribution respectively. Significant differences are demonstrated: AB (-2.63%, P less than 0.10) in organic syndromes; Rh+ (+3.65%, P less than 0.02) in neurotic disorders; Rh+ (+3.10%, P less than 0.005) in all diagnoses; 0, Rh+ (+4.31%, P less than 0,05) in neurotic disorders; AB, Rh+ (+2.29%, P less than 0.05) in manic-depressive psychoses; A, Rh- (-1.59%, P less than 0.05) in all diagnoses; AB, Rh- (-0.58%, P less than 0.05) in all diagnoses; MNS (Ms +2.26%, MS +2.10%, MNs -3.65%, MNS -0.35%, Ns +0.52%, NS -0.88%, P less than 0.05) in all diagnoses. The results are compared with the literature, and methodical problems are discussed.

[Treatment of neurotic sleep disorders with the use of V. E. Frank's logotherapy].

V. E. Frankl's logotherapy is a useful method of treatment in the psychotherapy of neuroses. Its systematic approach to reorientation, the assistance it provides is adopting an optimistic outlook on life, and its dynamic character and comparative limitation in time make it ideal for outpatient therapy. Patients easily adopt its two recommendations, the "paradoxical intention" and "dereflection", and these have a capacity for overcoming symptoms. This frees the patient sufficiently to make it possible for him to deal with the causes of his crisis. Through analyzing his conflict with the environment he can arrive at a new synthesis and find a meaningful philosophy of life.
