Based on the experience with the International Pilot Study on Schizophrenia (IPSS) (WHO 1973, 1979), the WHO Division of Mental Health and Centres in Sofia, Groningen and Mannheim, joined by expertise from Nottingham and Zurich, conceived a prospective study to assess the ‘natural history’ (Ciompi, 1980a, b; Watt et al, 1983; Biehl, 1987) of psychological impairments and social disabilities in patients with functional psychosis in different socio-cultural environments (Jablensky et al 1980).

Antigen Antibody

A review of the studies on the use of the antigen-antibody system HMW-MAA 225.28S in melanoma radioimmunodetection is reported. The results obtained in a pilot study (42 patients with 74 lesions), a multicenter trial (254 patients with 553 lesions) and a prospective study still outstanding (29 patients with 38 lesions) allow to consider this system as suitable for clinical application. F(ab′)2 labelled with 99mTc gave the best results in terms of positivity. Moreover this radioisotope allows the best dosimetric conditions. The gamma energy emitted by this radionuclide is particularly convenient for conventional scintillation cameras and ECT. Very good results in terms of sensitivity (70%-85%) and especially specificity (about 100%) were achieved. Possible clinical applications of the method are discussed.
