[Sensory delirium of attitude in adolescence (problems of phenomenology and its dynamics)].
On the basis of a clinical follow-up of juvenile schizophrenia first manifested in delirious states with a picture of sensitive delirium of attitude (65 patients) the author has determined the stages of its development in youth and characteristics of the psychopathological structure of delirious disturbances which are poorly systematized and are still to be researched; the condition is characterized by a combination of elements of sensitive and interpretative delirium. The author has established a close correlation between the contents of delirium in these cases and the pubertal age, a peculiar nature of delirious constructions similar to super-worship formations, as well as a distinctive involvement of affective disturbances and catathymic psychic disorders in their formation. It has been shown that the pubertal age is pathogenetically significant with regard to the manifestations, course, and dynamics of the given variant of sensitive delirium of attitude.

[Disorders of self-consciousness in schizophrenic patients with depressive and depressive-paranoid syndromes].
Self-consciousness disorders were studied in 48 schizophrenics (60 attacks) with depressive and depressive-paranoid syndromes. Depressive states were accompanied by impairment of the sensory-perceptive component of the patients' self-consciousness expressed in an altered perception of the "ego" and in disruption of the integrity and activity of the "ego image". Depressive paranoid states are characterized by stage-by-stage recovery of self-consciousness which undergoes complete destruction at the height of an attack. Self-consciousness disorders are analyzed at different stages of disease regression.
