[Differential diagnosis of neurocirculatory asthenia (NCA)].
170 patients with primary diagnosis of NCA underwent detailed examination by the therapist, neuropathologist, endocrinologist, urologist, gynecologist and psychiatrist. Primary diagnosis was confirmed only in 47 patients, the other 123 patients had different somatic, neurological or psychic disorders. These 47 and 123 patients were considered as having NCA as a syndrome and as an independent nosological entity, respectively. NCA as a syndrome was associated with blood hypertension, nervous asthenia, ischemic heart disease, spinal osteochondrosis. One third of the patients had neuropsychic disorders. The conclusion is made that all the NCA patients require detailed therapeutic, neurological and psychic examinations to exclude hypertension, asthenoneurotic states, ischemic heart disease and spinal osteochondrosis.
