    Author: Alimkhanov ZhA.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1980; 80(4):577-80. PubMed ID: 7405466.
    Abstract:
    The psychopathological traits of paranoial delusions were studied in 65 patients with paranoial schizophrenia. Of these patients, 16 had hypochondriacal delusions, 13 delusions of jealousy and 36 delusions of reference and persecution. All cases were studied from the standpoint of structural-dynamic aspects of the development of systematized interpretative delusions. Two variants of the development of such delusions were distinguished: paranoic and mixed. The paranoic variant by its nature appeared to be catathymic (4 cases), in a mixed variant separate elements of sensorial and imaginative delusions were interspersed with a catathymic development of delusions. Such states were mainly expressed in the form of delusions of significance and special significance. An assumption is made that there is a reciprocal transition of catathymic delusions, delusions of significance and special significance in compliance to the development of the morbid process.
