Ratgeber Depression

Jeder fühlt sich irgendwann einmal traurig, niedergeschlagen und lustlos. Das ist normal. Schwermut bzw. Depressionen sind heftiger und länger andauernde Varianten dieser Stimmungen. Der ganze Körper, das Denken, das ganze Leben und die sozialen Beziehungen sind davon beeinträchtigt. Depressionen kommen häufig und in allen Lebensphasen vor. Depressionen werden oft nicht oder zu spät erkannt und häufig unangemessen behandelt. Die Folgen sind Leid, Verlust an Lebensqualität, Erschöpfung, Belastungen in der Familie, Krankheiten, ja sogar verkürzte Lebenserwartungen. Dabei stehen erfolgreiche Behandlungsmöglichkeiten zur Verfügung. Der Ratgeber klärt Betroffene und Angehörige über die Beschwerden und das Krankheitsbild, den Verlauf, die Ursachen und die Behandlungsmöglichkeiten auf. Außerdem werden Selbsthilfemöglichkeiten vorgestellt. Der Ratgeber hilft dabei, die eigene Krankheit bzw. die Krankheit eines Angehörigen oder Freundes besser zu verstehen. Er eignet sich auch dazu, begleitend zu einer bereits laufenden Behandlung gelesen zu werden und damit die Therapie zu unterstützen.

Hypericum extract preparations are used extensively in many countries to treat mildly to moderately depressed patients. While this was based previously on traditional experience, extensive research over the last 10 years has given a broad preclinical and clinical basis to justify the use of Hypericum as an antidepressant. This book reviews the available data related to the biochemical, functional, and behavioural pharmacology of Hypericum and its active constituents. The clinical chapters overview the evidenced basis for its use as an antidepressant, initial data in anxiety and somatoform disorders, and the site effect profile of Hypericum and its possible relevant drug interactions. The known pharmacokinetics of the relevant constituents and the biopharmaceutical quality of commercially available Hypericum preparations are also discussed.

Zack Eswine draws from C.H. Spurgeon, 'the Prince of Preachers' experience to encourage us. What Spurgeon found in his darkness can serve as a light in our own darkness.

This open access book describes modern applications of computational human modeling with specific emphasis in the areas of neurology and neuroelectromagnetics, depression and cancer treatments, radio-frequency studies and wireless communications. Special consideration is also given to the use of human modeling to the computational assessment of relevant regulatory and safety requirements. Readers working on applications that may expose human subjects to electromagnetic radiation will benefit from this book’s coverage of the latest developments in computational modelling and human phantom development to assess a given technology’s safety and efficacy in a timely manner. Describes construction and application of computational human models including anatomically detailed and subject specific models; Explains new practices in computational human modeling for neuroelectromagnetics, electromagnetic safety, and exposure evaluations; Includes a survey of modern applications for which computational human models are critical; Describes cellular-level interactions between the human body and electromagnetic fields.
