  • Title: [Forced insulin coma therapy and its efficacy].
    Author: Neduva AA, Dorokhov VV, Sulukhiia SV.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1991; 91(11):75-7. PubMed ID: 1666233.
    Abstract:
    The title method was applied to the treatment of schizophrenic patients suffering from schizoaffective, paranoid and hallucinatory paranoid attacks. Definite correlations were established between the development of insulin coma and the type of the reverse development of psychosis. Five variants of schizophrenia reduction due to the treatment method under consideration were distinguished and described: variant 1--harmonic critical, variant 2--harmonic lytic, variant 3--disharmonious deliric, variant 4--disharmonious affective, and variant 5--incomplete reduction. The established correlations between variants of the development of insulin coma and the type of psychosis reduction enable one to predict whether the use of forced insulin coma therapy will be desirable and effective.
