[State of the tone and reactivity of the vascular wall in patients with chronic alcoholism during therapy].

With the aid of the rheoencephalographical and rheovazographical methods the authors revealed some objective criteria of a change of reactivity of brain vessels and peripheral vessels--the hypertonus of the vascular wall combined with a decreased pulse blood filling, a decrease of elasticity of the vascular wall. The pathogenetical validity of the inclusion of psychotropic drugs and insulin-sub-shock therapy into the scheme of antialcoholic treatment is proved.
