RESUMEN
AIM: A comparative analysis of the psycho-emotional status and quality of life of patients with acne and post-acne. MATERIAL AND METHODS: There were 147 patients included in the study, 84 (57%) women and 63 (43%) men, aged from 14 to 48 years. The following parameters were studied: CADI score, APSEA score, DLQI score. Anxiety and depression were assessed with HAM-D and HAM-A. RESULTS: Higher scores on CADI, APSEA and DLQI and dissatisfaction with the results of therapy were noted in older patients. Significant changes in CADI, APSEA and DLQI scores in patients with post-acne symptoms were recorded later compared to patients with acne. Anxiety and depression symptoms measured with HAM-D and HAM-A reached the level of depressive disorder of moderate severity and moderate anxiety in patients over 20 years old. Mental disorders were qualified within the nosogenic anxiety-phobic reactions developing in connection with dermatosis manifestation. CONCLUSION: Acnes substantially better give in to correction than post-acne symptom complex. Regardless of age, post-acne symptoms considerably reduce quality of life of patients, sometimes causing more expressed changes (anxiety and depression) than dermatosis.

A study was made of the occurrence of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH) deficiency among patients with lung tuberculosis including those suffering from mental diseases (alcoholism or schizophrenia). In Azerbaijani patients, the rate of G-6-PDH demonstration was higher as compared to that among the healthy population. On combined lung tuberculosis and alcoholism the rate of that abnormality demonstration increased whereas on associated lung tuberculosis and schizophrenia, it slightly decreased. Among patients with hereditary G-6-PDH deficiency, the portion of chronic destructive forms of pulmonary tuberculosis is high, the tuberculous process is accompanied more often by isolation of M. tuberculosis. The etiological role of G-6-PDH as a genetic marker is evaluated as 14%; in associated lung tuberculosis and alcoholism, it grows to 18%.
