摘要：
A patient is described with a severe agitated depression who made a dramatic recovery following an acute myocardial infarction. A retrospective case notes study was conducted to investigate the effects of a sudden physical illness on the mental state of a group of psychiatric inpatients. Seven patients were identified with agitated depression who improved considerably following an acute life‐threatening physical event. Patients with other forms of depression, schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder showed either no change or underwent a deterioration in mental state. Copyright © 1990, Wiley Blackwell.
