Psychosis is a syndrome, which is a mixture of symptoms that can be associated with many different psychiatric disorders but is not a specific disorder itself in diagnostic schemes such as DSM-IV or ICD-10.

Frontotemporal dementias are characterized by gross structural changes in the frontal and anterior temporal lobes, metabolic disturbances, and involvement of certain subcortical structures as well (Ishii et al. 1998). Whereas in Alzheimer s disease the early cognitive disturbances are in memory, in frontotemporal dementias the early manifestations are in executive and behavioral function (Pfeffer et al. 1999 Varma et al. 1999). This relative cognitive distinction persists throughout the course of the two disorders (Pachana et al. 1996). Disinhibition and disorganization are common, and psychotic symptoms may be prominent in frontotemporal dementia. [Pg.149]

Manifestations of chronic intoxication Severe dermatoses, marked insomnia, irritability, hyperactivity, and personality changes have occurred. Disorganization of thoughts, poor concentration, visual hallucinations, and compulsive behavior often occur. The most severe manifestation of chronic intoxication is psychosis, often clinically indistinguishable from paranoid schizophrenia. This is rare with oral amphetamines. [Pg.827]

The schizophrenia syndrome is characterized by a variety of cognitive and emotional impairments that may be conceptualized as falling into three broad categories positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and disorganization. Positive symptoms (hallucinations and delusions) appear to reflect an excess or distortion of normal functions and are often the most obvious symptoms. Disorganized speech and behavior are sometimes... [Pg.184]
