[Pathogenetic approaches to the correction of vascular homeostasis in patients with COVID-19: A review].

The adverse outcomes in patients with COVID-19 in the initial phase of the disease are often due to the development of cytokine storm, endothelial dysfunction, shifts in the hemostasis system, microangiopathy, angiocentric inflammation, and pathological angiogenesis, which require targeted therapy. Unfortunately, to date, there is still no drug with proven high efficacy. This review is to analyse the literature data on the pathogenesis of vascular homeostasis lesions and possible ways to correct the existing shifts in patients with COVID-19.

Infections, Pandemics, and Sleep Disorders.

Studies of the neurological symptoms and signs associated with the acute and late phases of infectious diseases are important in pandemic conditions. The novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) pandemic has increased the number of patients with sleeplessness, this being an adverse prognostic factor for infections. This review addresses the factors and mechanisms of sleep impairments and their relationship with inflammation and immune system dysfunction in infectious diseases.

[Infections, pandemics and sleep disorders].

The study of neurological symptoms and signs connected with acute and long-term periods of infectious diseases is relevant during pandemics. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the number of patients suffering from insomnia. Sleep disturbance is an unfavorable prognostic factor for infections.

[Agomelatine in the treatment of major depressive disorder: assessment of the efficacy and tolerability].

Agomelatine is an antidepressant agent with an innovative unique pharmacodynamic profile, including melatonergic receptor agonism (MT1 / MT2) and antagonistic effects on serotonergic 5-HT2C receptors. According to the results of meta-analyzes of clinical studies of the acute phase of a major depressive disorder, the antidepressant effect of agomelatine itself is significantly higher than that of placebo, but somewhat inferior to a number of other antidepressants (especially SSRIs and venlafaxine). To date, there is some uncertainty regarding the efficacy of agomelatine for the prevention of recurrence of MDD and its hepatotoxicity profile.

[The efficacy of remaxol as a hepatoprotective agent in long-term psychopharmacotherapy].

Aim: Evaluation of the efficacy of psychopharmacotherapy with the hepatoprotector remaxol.

Material And Methods: A study was conducted on 60 male patients diagnosed with 'Paranoid schizophrenia, continuous progression type course' who received therapy for the underlying disease with traditional antipsychotics in a psychiatric inpatient setting. During the 12 days of the study, 30 patients (main group) received neuroleptic therapy in combination with intravenous infusions of remaxol (400.
