In discussing some clinical cases the paper suggests an interpretation of catatonic syndrome based on the original and main characteristics of this psychopathological condition. Kahlbaum described this disease underlining the "affective" symptoms, but since then, catatonia has been considered a schizophrenic syndrome. The paper proposes a definition of catatonia based on Kahlbaum's earlier view in which the complex of psychomotor disturbances can be seen as the expression of schizophrenia, bipolar psychoses or of a specific cyclic disease.
在讨论一些临床病例时，本文基于这种精神病理状况的原始和主要特征，提出了对紧张症综合征的一种解释。卡尔鲍姆描述了这种疾病并强调了“情感”症状，但从那时起，紧张症就一直被视为一种精神分裂症综合征。本文基于卡尔鲍姆早期的观点提出了紧张症的定义，在该观点中，精神运动障碍的复合体可被视为精神分裂症、双相情感障碍或一种特定循环疾病的表现。
