  • Title: [Clinico-dynamic aspects of long-term remissions in schizophrenia].
    Author: Mazaeva NA, Ushakov IuV.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1987; 87(1):71-7. PubMed ID: 3825395.
    Abstract:
    The authors studied 56 patients with paroxysmal schizophrenia who had remissions lasting over 10 years. Three variants of such long remissions were identified: with a negative time-course characterized by a gradual decrease in their quality and the presence of signs of slow progression of the disease; with a positive time-course characterized by an elevation in their levels, a gradual reduction of positive symptomatology and stabilization of the patient's status; stationary remissions with an unaltered clinical picture throughout their course. The time-course of prolonged remissions correlated with the regularities of the course of the endogenic process on the whole. Sociotherapeutic recommendations are presented for each of the identified variants.
