[Depressive syndromes in the involutional age and old age--a synopsis of computerized tomography, test psychologic and clinical findings].
The importance of the computertomographic, testpsychological, and clinical findings at the appearance of depressive syndromes during the involutional age and the senium has been investigated. The hypothesis is not to confirm which says that a cerebral atrophy indicated by the computer-assisted tomogram shows an unfavourable prognosis. The supposal saying that inferior results of an intelligence test (HAWIE) indicate a negative prediction was not to corroborate. By the way, patients who often had been in stationary treatment tended to show an unfavourable development (p less than 0.1) of the disease.
