Comparative Study of the Clinic of Psychotic and Non-Psychotic Variants of Chronic Alcoholism

A steady increase in the frequency of alcohol psychoses, which significantly aggravates the course of alcoholism in a decade, causes researchers to become more and more interested in this problem. One of its least studied aspects is the reasons and mechanisms for the transition of alcohol overabundance to acute alcoholic psychosis, the clarity of which significantly limits the chances of preventing alcohol psychosis. In this regard, the relevance of a comparative study of the characteristics of Lucid and psychotic variants of the course of alcoholism is growing, which opens up the prospects for identifying the "risk" factors of alcoholic psychoses and, therefore, developing more effective measures for their prevention.
