[Psychophysiologic tests for early diagnosis of central nervous system's chronic exposure to organic solvents].

The authors studied value of laboratory CNS tests in early diagnosis of chronic exposure to organic solvents. The tests include quantitative and qualitative evaluation of personal profile, higher psychic functions and bioelectric activity of brain. Findings are objective parameters of early CNS response to solvents--EEG signs characteristic for hypothalamic irritation, moderate diffuse increase in MMPI personal profile with secondary neurotic type and marked disorder of attention that is considerably influenced by nonspecific activating system of brain.
