Guiding the work of medica mondiale is an attitude of sensitivity towards both trauma and stress.
This stress- and trauma-sensitive approach has a strengthening and relieving effect on the affected
people and also the activists, specialist staff and working groups. For medica mondiale, trauma as a...
consequence of violence is not to be found exclusively in the area of (individual) psychology, but also

Представлены литературные данные о полиморфизме психических расстройств в периоде перименопаузы у женщин и о теориях возникновения климактерического синдрома. ...огласно современной гипотезе, мелатонин обладает антигонадотропными свойствами. Резкое снижение уровня мелатонина в организме человека в период полового созревания способствует активации гонадотропной функции гипофиза, выработке фолликул стимулирующего гормона и лютеинизирующего гормона, которые оказывают стимулирующее влияние на половые железы.

Дальнейшее изучение роли мелатонина в возникновении КС позволит понять возможности психофармакотерапии рассматриваемых расстройств.
