    Notes: Summary Using the Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire (MHQ) and the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) psychological distress was measured in 30 women who underwent laparoscopy for chronic pelvic pain and in 30 matched controls. Both organic pelvic pain patients (OPPs) and idiopathic pelvic pain patients (IPPs) reported higher scores for somatisation than controls. IPPs scored higher than OPPs and controls on the Zung SDS, while no difference emerged in this scale between OPPs and controls. No correlations were found between age or duration of symptoms and somatisation and depression scores. On the basis of the above reported results the authors suggest that some forms of idiopathic chronic pelvic pain might represent an expression of a depressive disorder.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Il test di soppressione al desametazone (DST) è stato applicato a 13 pazienti con demenza multi-infartuale (MID), a 5 pazienti affetti da demenza degenerativa primaria (PDD), e a 18 controlli (anziani). Una nonsoppressione è stata ritrovata in 7 pazienti affetti da demenza (3 di tipo PDD, in 1 caso di grado moderato ed in 2 casi severo, e 4 di tipo MID, in 1 caso moderato ed in 3 casi severo). Solo uno dei pazienti affetti da demenza si presentava contemporaneamente affetto da depressione. Viene discussa l’utilità del DST nel giudizio diagnostico-differenziale tra la demenza ed il disturbo depressivo maggiore.
    Notes: Abstract The dexamethasone suppression test (DST) was performed on 13 patients with multi-infarct dementia (MID), 5 patients with primary degenerative dementia (PDD) and 18 elderly controls. Abnormal lack of suppression was found in 7 demented patients (3 with PDD, 1 mild and 2 severe, and 4 with MID, 1 mild and 3 severe), and in 2 of the controls. Only one demented patient was depressed. The value of DST in the differential diagnosis of dementia from the major depressive disorders is discussed.
