  • Title: [Tetany in autonomic vascular dystonia in children].
    Author: Kushnir GM.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1990; 90(5):31-6. PubMed ID: 2168625.
    Abstract:
    The results of examining patients aged 10 to 15 years suffering from vegetovascular dystonia (VVD) associated with the tetanic syndrome (TS) are provided. Patients with VVD not associated with the TS, and healthy patients of the comparable age made up the control. Use was made of the electrophysiological techniques (EEG, EMG, REG), vegetological methods (background, reactivity, activity support), neuropsychological (MMPI, Spielberger and Izenk tests), polygraphic and biochemical methods. The authors describe a number of disease characteristics (predominance of the latent forms of the TS, the normal calcemic pattern of tetany, etc). Emphasize the role of nongross lesions of the nonspecific integrating brain systems in the genesis of the given syndrome determined by perinatal injury to the brain.
