[Features of the course of psoriasis in patients with organic diseases of the nervous system].
Of 190 patients suffering from psoriasis in 65 (34.2%) hypothalamic syndrome, sequelae of neuroinfections and craniocerebral injuries, acute and chronic insufficiency of cerebral circulation were noted. These diseases preceded the development of psoriasis in 22.6% of the patients, the fact, that gives one grounds to regard them with a greater probability as a pathogenetic factor of psoriasis. In the patients suffering from psoriasis and the above diseases of the nervous system an inclinication to exudative and pustulous manifestations, arthropathy, and erythroderma, as well as frequent resistance to the therapy and torpid course of the disease were observed. An exacerbation of psoriasis aggravated some neurological disorders, and a deterioration of the neurological state coincided in time in some patients with exacerbation of psoriasis. The interaction between the dermal and the neurological disturbances appeared to be a reason for supplementing the complex of measures for psoriasis treatment with means improving the metabolic processes in the brain, psychotropic and vasocative drugs, and diadynamic currents that produce normalizing effects on the vegetative functions and cerebral hemodynamics.
