[Age factors and patterns in senile depression].
On the basis of a comparative age-specific analysis of 115 patients with depression which first manifested itself at the age over 60, the author shows the dependence of a number of clinical characteristics (typology of manifest attacks, their duration, as well as the likelihood of the development of individual nosological forms of affective psychoses) on the age at which the disease first manifested itself. The nature of the modifying effect of the age factor on the clinical manifestations of late-age depression is discussed.
