[Clinical variants of neuropsychological disorders during remission in chronic alcoholism].

To study the psychopathological characteristics of remissions in alcoholism, 142 patients aged 32 to 45 years were examined. The anxious hypochondriac, neurasthenia-like, asthenic-depressive, anxious suspicious, anxious depressive, excitable, euphoric, apathetic, dysphoric syndromal variants are described. Correlation of the indicated syndromal variants with the other clinical characteristics of alcoholism made it possible to distinguish a favourable and relatively unfavourable type of remission, providing a possibility of differentiating between the treatment and rehabilitation measures in patients suffering from alcoholism.
