[Clinical and biochemical considerations on depressive states occuring during parkinsonian syndrome treated by L-Dopa].

From 17 observations of depressive illness occuring to parkinsonians treated with L. Dopa alone or associated with an inhibitor of peripheral decarboxylase, several types of depressive illness can be distinguished according to their date of appearance, their evolution with or without tricyclic anti-depressant drugs tertiary amine. According to the characteristics of these depressive illness, to the related locomotive state and to various monoamingeric hypothesises that are suggested both in the genesis of affective disorders and the mechanism of action of two biochemically related depressive aspects, a distinction already considered by other authors for endogeneous depressions.

[Pilot study on the effects of an antiparkinson anticholinergic agent during depressive conditions].

This pilot stuyd was made in order to search for the efficiency of an anticholinergic antiparkinsonian drug, orphenadrine, at high doses (300 to 500 mg/day, orally) in 10 depressed patients. This efficiency seems to be clear and appears quickly: with melancolic patients in particular, we observed 4 very good results in less than 5 days. Nevertheless, besides peripheral anticholinergic side-effects a transitory but very marked spatio-temporal disorganization, with increase of locomotor-activity and sometimes hallucinations, was observed in most patients. Nevertheless, it seems that this therapeutic should be carried on whenever other antidepressant therapeutics failed.

[Guignol or the comedian's paradox].

Our study is based on a puppet theatre performed with a group of children aged from six to eight who were experiencing a neurotic context. Guignol's playing reveals anguishes and defensive mechanisms as well as, regarding the actors, the ability to experience the comedy with authenticity without forgetting it is imaginary. The puppet theatre has allowed us to progress in a therapeutic process while continuing diagnostic exploration.

[Psychiatric hospitalizations after the June 27 1990 Law in a French department].

The law, edicted on the 27th june 1990, has introduced in France the without consent hospitalization, to replace the law of 30th june 1838 which was composed of confinements or psychiatric placings. On of the both new types of a without consent admission, called "by a third person request" hospitalization (HDT) containing a procedure called "usual" and another one called "situation emergency", appeared to us more and more used in our practice, particularly the "situation emergency" HDT. Therefore we compared on three periods, one before the law, the two others ones 3 and 6 years after it, the different types of psychiatric admissions in all of the seven psychiatric sectors of a french department. All the hospitalization's forms increase with the chronologic time in Côte d'Or. We notice too in this department an important increase of the HDT, but especially in the "situation emergency" ones, and this, with a statistically revealing way compared to the other types of admission. If this phenomena wasn't purely localized, which only the departmental commissions of psychiatric hospitalization, created by the 1990's law, can reveal by proceeding to an expected assessment of the law consequences, the legislator should fastly take this evolution into account.
