Twelve patients with typhoid fever presented with a catatonic syndrome that persisted after other signs of the fever had disappeared. The syndrome was distinct from the delirium seen in typhoid fever and did not have the characteristics of an affective or schizophrenic illness. Electric convulsion therapy produced rapid and lasting improvement.
12名伤寒热患者出现了紧张症候群,在发热的其他症状消失后该症候群仍持续存在。该症候群不同于伤寒热中出现的谵妄,也不具备情感性或精神分裂症性疾病的特征。电惊厥治疗产生了快速且持久的改善效果。
