[Clinical findings concerning a comparative study of several structural features of depression].

The author studied 321 patients with depressive states of a different nature (reactive, symptomatical and endogenous). An attempt is made to establish connections between atypical neurotical states and hallucinatory-paranoid symptoms on the one hand and certain depressive emotions on the other. The opinion is expressed that anguish to a greater extent prevents the polymorphism of a depressive affect and the appearance of nonemotional disorders.
