TY - JOUR PY - 1991// TI - Manic and depressive symptoms in the elderly: their relationships to treatment outcome, cognition and motor symptoms JO - Psychopathology A1 - Berrios, G. E. A1 - Bakshi, N. SP - 31 EP - 38 VL - 24 IS - 1 N2 - 70 subjects aged over 65 were evaluated within 48 h of admission in order to ascertain the correlation between manic and depressive symptoms and cognitive disorder, multi-infarct changes, abnormal movements, and extrapyramidal signs. Manic symptoms were found to be more often correlated with multi-infarct changes, lower cognitive scores, disordered behaviour, and bad outcome. The meaning of these findings is discussed.
