[Clinical aspects of vegetative dysregulation during the pubertal period]

A clinico-populational study of the functional status of the vegetative nervous system in 5291 children of the puberal age made it possible, along with the so-called subclinical vegetative lability (a physiological phasic state of the neurovegetative apparatuses during puberty), to identify in 43.9% of cases clinicall manifestations of vegetative disregulation: the syndrome of clinically demonstrable vegetative lability and different syndromes of vegetative dysfunction. The frequency of vegetative disorders was correlated with sex and urban or rural living conditions of patients whereas their intensity largely depended on the level of functional activity of neuroendocrine apparatuses in the period of puberty.
