title: [Somatopsychic manifestations in patients with chronic viral hepatitis].
abstract: The aim of the work was to study somatopsychic manifestations in patients with chronic viral hepatitis (CVH). MMPI profiles, state and trait anxiety were assessed in 110 patients. Boundary psychic problems were evaluated using the Beck scale. It was shown that mean MMPI T-score in patients with CVH was above 50; half of them developed "neurotic triad"; hypochondria occurred in 37.3%, depression in 42.7%, and hysteria in 37.1%. The highest level of state anxiety was documented in patients with HCV infection and isolated HBCor At. The CVH-1b genotype was associated with enhanced occurrence of depression in patients having virus-positive blood for 1-5 years. The level of state and trait anxiety in them was lower than in patients with duration of viremia over 5 years.
