Conclusions

  1. 1.

    In patients with diencephalic adiposity the administration of L-dopa causes an increase in the index of the 6-rhythm in the anterior leads as compared to the initial recording, although the periods of the detection of this increase differed in different patients.

  2. 2.

    An analysis of the EEG of patients with Itsenko-Cushing's disease did not reveal changes in the nature of the recording during the test with L-dopa as compared to the back-ground recording.
