Extract

The relationship of neuro-psychiatric disorders to electro-physiology and biochemistry has a vast literature, review of which is not within the scope of this preliminary report. The report itself concerns a study of an aspect of this relationship based on 30 unselected neuro-psychiatric cases. Each case had an electroencephalographic (E.E.G.) and a cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F.) investigation, the latter with reference to the presence of amino-acids.
