[Fractal characteristics of the functional state of the brain in patients with anxious phobic disorders].

The task of estimation of the functional state of the human brain during psychotherapeutic treatment of psychogenic pain in patients with anxious phobic disorders is examined. For solving the task the methods of spectral and multifractal analyses of EEG fragments are applied during the perception of psychogenic pain and its removal by the psychorelaxation technique. Contrary to power spectra singularity spectra allow to distinguish EEGs quanitatively in the examined functional states of the human brain.

[On using EEG autointerval-grams for analysing reactions to periodical light stimulation].

We have analyzed autointerval-grams of the extremums of human electroencephalograms, registered during periodical light stimulation. We have compared them with the visual analysis of EEG and EEG's testing by sinusoids. We have shown that in most cases building interval-grams is as good or even better than two other methods, as it allows us to discover reactions and obtain additional information.

[Time-organization of EEG patterns' structure in anxiety and phobic disorders].

Thirty-five patients, aged 19-48 years (mean age 38 years) with anxiety and phobic disorders were examined. According to ICD-10 criteria--social phobia (F40.1), panic disorder (F41.

[EEG pattern as an instrument for evaluation of neurophysiological mechanisms underlying adaptation disorders].

The method of statistical evaluation of probable interaction between the main constituents of bioelectrical activity of the brain (BEA) enables to reveal the character of intercentral relations both under normal conditions and at adaptation disorders of different severance. Several types of statistic interactions have been revealed between EEG components (SSIC) correlating with normal interrelations between cortex and subcortex, level of preferential involvement of non-specific brain formations (cortex, thalamic, hypothalamic and brain-stem) into the process, and the degree of instability of neuro-dynamic processes. The findings obtained have shown the degree of expression of adaptation disorders to be connected with gradual destruction of "functional nuclear" within alpha-range, amplification of statistical interrelations with beta-EEG and teta-EEG components and formation of pathological nuclear structures within the ranges aforesaid.
