[Alcohol consumption and alcoholic psychoses].

The course of alcoholic psychoses was juxtaposed to that of alcoholic beverages purchase in Moscow during 1984-1986. Antialcoholic measures since June, 1985, sharply decreased the number of psychoses to 33.1% of the 1984 level. Their distribution within a month has changed. The alcoholic beverages purchase in 1986 was 61.7% of that in 1984. The number of alcoholic psychoses displayed a strong correlation with the purchase level (r = +0.90). Regression analysis showed that beverages purchase reduction to 28% of the 1984 level would fully abolish the alcoholic psychoses in Moscow. The conclusion was that the alcoholic psychoses can serve as a reliable index of the effectiveness of anti-alcoholic measures.

[Follow-up findings in rural patients after sustaining alcoholic psychoses].

The author has found that (1) alcoholic psychoses are more common in patients weakened as a result of somatic diseases; (2) the use of home-made strong beverages more frequent in rural areas causes alcoholic psychoses; (3) alcoholic psychoses in patients with Stage III chronic alcoholism run a more severe course; (4) to prevent the development of alcoholic psychoses it is necessary that the treatment of alcoholics in narcological rooms of the central regional hospitals be started at the first stage of the disease.

A reappraisal of alcoholic psychoses.

A retrospective study of alcoholic psychoses is reported. The phenomena of the illnesses corresponded poorly with classical descriptions of alcoholic hallucinosis, delirium tremens and alcoholic paranoia. Alternative diagnostic approaches were tried (Catego, restrictive definition of alcoholic hallucinosis). The problems of distinguishing psychoses with associated organic factors from 'idiopathic' forms are discussed.

[Clinico-pathogenetic aspects of pathologic premorbid conditions in alcoholic psychoses].

A study was made of the pattern of the clinicopathogenetic correlation of the pathological premorbid condition and alcoholic psychoses in 689 patients. Three degrees of the pathogenicity of the pathological ground and a respective grouping of alcoholic psychoses were distinguished. For correlation analysis purposes 4 most informative factors and 12 parameters mirroring the main tendencies of the pathogenesis of alcoholic psychoses were also distinguished. A regularity was discovered, according to which each of the 4 factors produces a different effect on the clinicopathogenetic mechanisms and formation of the varieties of alcoholic psychoses. The author puts forward a rationale for increased proneness of patients suffering from alcoholism with the pathological premorbid condition to the development of alcoholic psychoses.

[Patterns in the recurrence and transformation of alcoholic psychoses developing against a pathologic background (clinico-statistical study)].

A clinical and statistical study has covered 689 patients with alcoholic psychoses developing against the pathologic background. The study of the correlation between the form of attacks and the type of the disease course has demonstrated some highly probable variants of relapse development and transformation of the clinical forms of alcoholic psychoses in subsequent bouts. Two variants of the course of alcoholic psychoses have been identified. In the first variant psychoses show no tendency to recur and transform while the second one is associated with their relapses and transformation. These findings make it possible to infer that the presence of pathologic background is a factor of risk and to outline on this basis the measures to prevent the development and relapse of alcoholic psychoses.
