[Neuroses and their pathogenesis].

History and current state of the problem of experimental neuroses are reviewed in this article. The presented results of neurochemical, structural, and electroencephalographic investigations unravel earlier unknown aspects of the disease. Thus, circulatory cerebral hypoxia, as a principally new stage discovered for the first time in the development of an experimental neurosis allows the pathogenetically substantiated treatment with antioxidants to be applied in animal experiments and in clinical therapy of neurotic patients.
