Abstract
Preclinical inpatient therapy and postclinical prognostic factors concerning 113 cases were empirically scrutinized and hierarchically classified in accordance with their importance, especially in light of the relative weight of somatic, psychologic, or social variables. The criterion is the state of health at the time of follow-up, after 6.4 years. The results thus obtained are the basis of therapy recommendations.Keywords
