Extract

During the last few years at Rainhill Mental Hospital, an investigation has been carried out into the clinical and pathological features of dementia præcox in its so-called acute or malignant form. A description of the characteristic clinical features and of the gross morbid anatomy was presented in a previous article in this Journal (4), but it may be of advantage to re-state the conclusions arrived at in this preliminary inquiry.
