[Genetic constitution differences in patients with various forms of alcoholism].
Four groups of alcoholics were identified, according to the structure of psychopathological disturbances outside the acute period of abstinence and progression of the disease. There were inter-group differences in the level of familial history of alcoholism, alcoholic psychoses and psychic diseases, as well as in the mean values of some parameters of dermatoglyphics of palms, colour perception and taste perception of phenylthiocarbamide. The used clinical criteria of patients' distribution reflect the constitutional-genetic differences between them, which should be taken into consideration in developing differential pharmacotherapy.
