[Information value of initial clinical signs for the prognosis of outcome in the first 24 hours after craniocerebral injury].
The informativeness of clinical indicators for predicting lethal and favourable outcomes during the first 24 hours after a head trauma has been investigated. A pool of clinical findings about the status of 302 patients examined according to a uniform technique has been analyzed using a packet of the MEDSTAT-85 software. The authors present an optimal set of clinical signs for predicting fatal and favourable outcome within the first 24 hours after the trauma with an 83% probability rate.

[Diagnosis and forensic psychiatric expertise in traumatic cerebral arachnoiditis].
Patients (123) with traumatic cerebral arachnoiditis due to closed craniocerebral trauma, were investigated during complications or late sequelae of the trauma. All the patients were subjected to spinal puncture. Asthenic, psychosis-like and hallucinatory-paranoid disorders were detected as well as partial oligophrenia and dullness of consciousness. The degree of mental disorders run parallel with intracranial pressure elevation, suggesting the role of intracranial hypertension in pathogenesis of several psychic disorders.

[Correlation of clinical signs with the outcome of craniocerebral trauma].
Clinical manifestations were correlated with head trauma (HT) outcomes using computer software MEDSTAT-85. Neuro-ophthalmologic signs, motor and vital disorders had maximal prognostic values. Outcome was highly correlated with consciousness disorders phase scaling and patients' state scores (PSS) as well as with coma and consciousness disorders length suggesting that these parameters are of major prognostic importance. A close correlation was found between consciousness states, PSS and HT variants, brain lesion forms, vital and somatic disorders indicating their role as determinants of HT outcome.

[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.
