[Effect of hemosorption on changes in the concentration of neuromediators among dermatosis patients with borderline neuropsychological disorders].

The levels of catecholamines and acetylcholine were studied in the peripheral blood of 56 patients with psoriasis and neurodermitis and attendant borderline neuropsychic disorders. Hemosorption was carried out in all patients, some of them recieving psychotropic therapy prior to it. The analysis of the results showed a difference in the content of the neurotransmitters in the blood of patients with different neuropsychic disorders and also in patients with and without the psychotropic therapy. Hemosorption intensified the reaction of the neurotransmitter systems and may be considered as a physiological and psychological stressor. Following the psychocorrective therapy there was a more adequate reaction of the neurotransmitters to hemosorption and a more marked (versus control) improvement in the dermatological and psychic status of the patients.
