title: [Anxiety structure and catecholamine parameters in patients with rosacea, alopecia areata and lichen ruber planus].
abstract: 90 patients suffering from selected dermatoses (rosacea, alopecia areata, lichen planus) underwent psychological tests of examination with special regard to verification of their anxiety structures. Urinalysis of catechol amine levels was simultaneously carried out in these patients. The test results proved a marked correlation between psychological factors and the activity of the adrenergic system. High level of activity, emotional unstableness, as well as tendencies to neurotic activities are connected with increased secretion of adrenaline and decreased secretion of noradrenaline++ and dopamine. The lability of catechol amine secretion (statistically significant variation above or below the physiological standard) is the cause of functional disorders.
