title: [Individual prognosis in endogenous affective and schizoaffective psychoses: clinical predictors].
abstract: The purpose of the work was to search for predictors for early individual prognosis of the clinical characteristics of affective and schizoaffective psychoses and forecasting treatment responses to the tricyclic antidepressants and prevention with lithium salts. 285 patients (190 with affective and 95 with schizoaffective pathology) were examined. The mean disease standing was about 15 years, the mean duration of the follow-up amounted to over 4 years. More than 40 clinical and therapeutic signs were taken into account on the whole. The data were processed by EC-1036 computer. A number of coefficients indicating the intensity of interrelations between the study signs were computed. Based on the magnitudes of the above coefficients, the lists of the clinical predictor signs and protector signs were compiled to be used in psychiatric practice.
