[Clinical heterogeneity of consciousness disorders in the mussitational variant of delirium tremens].

A clinical study of 183 patients detected the absence of a syndromological uniformity in the mussitative variant of delirium tremens. The dynamical clinical picture of psychosis may include during one of the stages of its development a delirious-amentive syndrome, short-time amentive states and oniric experiences. The seen variants of disordered consciousness have a tendency to a transition to clouded forms which subsequentive lead to a significant drop of socio-labour capacity making such disorders prognostically extremely significant. An analysis of "lucid periods" in this contingent demonstrated their affinity to one of the mild forms of disordered consciousness.

[Syncopal consciousness disorders and drop attacks from the neurologic viewpoint].

The most important neurological disorders leading to syncope and/or drop attack are presented. With respect to epilepsy it is important to consider generalized absence seizures (petit mal), generalized tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal) and some types of complex partial seizures. Additionally, some sleep and arousal disorders must be mentioned, such as narcolepsy, disorders of excessive somnolence associated with sleep-induced respiratory impairment, as well as the Kleine-Levin-Critchley syndrome. Vagotonic, asympathicotonic, sympathicotonic and central autonomic disorders are comprised in the group of autonomic attacks. Among other brain diseases manifesting syncope and/or drop attack, cerebrovascular disorders are of major importance in view of their high incidence. Psychogenic seizures also have to be taken into account in the differential diagnosis.
