  • Title: [Evaluation of psychomotor agility during the period of withdrawal symptom dissipation in patients with alcohol dependence type 1 and 2 or Cloninger's].
    Author: Wójcik M, Habrat B, Slósarska M.
    Journal: Psychiatr Pol; 1999; 33(2):203-14. PubMed ID: 10786225.
    Abstract:
    28 alcohol dependent men were examined three times (on the 1st, 3rd or 4th and 7th day of withdrawal). The results confirmed the reported differences in the course of withdrawal syndrome in type 1 and type 2 alcoholics. Patients with type 2 alcoholism had more pronounced psychophysiological and cognitive disturbances. Tremor was more intensive in these patients and their reaction time was slower. Also, impaired estimation of passing time lasted longer, but at the same time their mood improved faster with the diminished intensity of withdrawal symptoms than in patients with type 1 alcoholism. The results confirm the possibility of diverse etiology in alcohol dependence.
