[Phrenitis in Greco-Latin medicine]. / El frenesí en la medicina grecolatina.

Since the times the Hipocraticum Corpus was written, Phrenitis or Mental Confusion was described as a mental disorder related basically to fever, but also related to craneal traumatisms an others somatics ethiologies. The theorical background of the different schools was the same, the Phisis and Humors doctrine, but the results of their works were quite different. Cos school had a biographic approach, Cnido a systematic one, and Eclectics blended both with emphazis in treatment.

[The logical basis of mental confusion in Delasiauve, Bonhoeffer and Llopis versus DSM-III-R delirium]. / El fundamento lógico de la idea de confusión mental en Delasiauve, Bonhoeffer y Llopis, frente al del Delirium, en el DSM-III-R.

Delasiauve, Bonhoeffer and Llopis, conceived confusional scenes contrasting the theory of Unique Psychosis, Nosologic Unit, and Psychical Atomism respectively. The a-theoric DSM-III-R, doesn't establish any new concept, limiting itself to arrange in other way, that which was discovered by those and others authors, without rational justifications, having priority over clinical considerations, verbal definitions, with a practice and scientific value that may be debatable.
