[Neuropathologic syndromes in the late period of closed cranio-cerebral injuries].
Using a comprehensive psychoneurological examination including a number of paraclinical methods (EEG, REG, echoventriculometry, thromboelastography, audiography, etc.) the authors studied 160 war veterans who had sustained a closed craniocerebral injury of a mild or moderate degree during the Great Patriotic War. The following neuropathological syndromes most characteristic for its long-term period were identified: cochleo-vestibular disorders, oculomotor and optico-vestibular disorders, as well as vegetovascular, hypothalamic, Parkinsonism, dyssomnic, epileptic and hydrocephalohypertensive syndromes. The authors also describe a number of the features of these syndromes related to the type of the course of the long-term period of the injury and to the predominance in the clinical picture of the disease of posttraumatic or cerebrovascular disturbances.

[Clinical picture and pathogenesis of measles encephalitis and meningoencephalitis].
The results of clinical observations over patients with encephalitides (E) and meningoencephalitides (ME) of measles etiology are presented. In the majority of patients, E and ME development was related to the severe forms of measles. ⋯ Neurological complications in patients with measles were most frequently presented by the meningoencephalic syndrome and less commonly by ME and E. The pathogenesis of central nervous system impairments associated with measles is discussed.

[Neurologic and x-ray aspects of osteochondrosis and diskosis (khondrosis) of the spine].
A certain disparity between the neurological and pathomorphological manifestations of osteochondrosis is reviewed. The authors substantiate the necessity of dividing the dystrophic process in the motor lumbar segment into two phases: 1) the involvement of the disk alone ( diskosis or chondrosis ) and 2) the involvement of both disk and adjacent vertebrae (osteochondrosis). The roentgenological diagnosis of these pathological phases is offered. The question of differentiating the mechanical injuries to the intervertebral disk from osteochondrosis is discussed.

[Thermography in the diagnosis of spontaneous lumbosacral radiculitis].
Employing the Soviet thermal scanner "Rubin", 59 patients aged 20 to 65 years suffering from lumbosacral radiculitis were examined. Clinical examinations were supplemented with spondylography , epidurography, pneumomyelography and myelography. ⋯ An analysis of the thermograms in 59 patients with lumbosacral radiculitis demonstrated that thermographically the given disease was manifested by the zone of hyperthermia in the lumbosacral area and the disruption of the thermal flow in the form of hypothermia in the lower extremities which in 72% of cases was distributed according to the stripe type. The side and the level of compression of the neural root are also outlined.
