[Psycho-endocrine interrelations in patients in a state of emotional stress during cerebral obesity].
A study was made of the psychoendocrine factor of pathogenesis of patients suffering from cerebral obesity with a hyperphagic reaction to stress and without it. The purpose was to study the hypothalamo-hypophyseo-adrenal system, emotional-personality features and motivation sphere in patients with cerebral obesity as compared to a control group. The following methods of examination were used: cliniconeurological examination, psychological methods--MIL test, Spilberger's test, a radioimmunoassay for determination of the blood levels of ACTH, STH, prolaction and cortisol at rest and under experimentally simulated stress. These methods were followed by mathematical processing of the obtained data with a correlation analysis of psychological and hormonal indices. The conclusions were based on statistically significant results only. A variable psychohormonal complex of reaction to stress was revealed in the patients with relation to the presence or absence of a hyperphagic reaction to stress. In a hyperphagic reaction to stress an increase in the body mass under an emotional stress resulted mainly from inadequate psychomotivation shifts with further overeating. In the absence of such a reaction a body mass increase under a stress was associated mainly with the neuroendocrine factor with retardation of lipolysis.
