In particular, it refers to the premise of a psychiatrist's decision that the health of a pregnant woman is at risk. Under Polish law, termination of pregnancy is generally prohibited and penalized. However, there are two exceptions to this prohibition. Such a procedure is permitted if: the pregnancy poses a threat to the life or health of the pregnant woman, or if there is a reasonable suspicion that the pregnancy was the result of a prohibited act. The text presents an overview of the relevant regulations and tips on their interpretation and application in everyday medical practice. This issue is particularly important for psychiatrists consulting maternity wards. In addition, the most important mental disorders related to pregnancy and childbirth are described. The clinical features and prevalence of perinatal mood disorders and psychoses are presented. The issue of suicide among pregnant and postpartum patients was also discussed. A sample certificate template was proposed, and guidelines were discussed as to what information and conclusions should be included in the opinion of a psychiatrist.</p>","PeriodicalId":20863,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatria polska","volume":"58 4","pages":"693-706"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142392791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The presented analysis of selected studies confirms and extends Beck's assumptions about the role of cognitive factors in the development and maintenance of depressive symptoms. The analysis of psychological, neuroimaging and biochemical studies provides a broader perspective of understanding both the etiology and mechanisms that sustain the symptoms of depression. The development of neuroimaging research has broadened the knowledge about the brain mechanisms of depression - the presented research combine the theoretical constructs of the cognitive concept of depression with the characteristics of the activity of brain structures and their functional connections. The following conclusions seem to be particularly important for clinical practice: 1) impairment of the cognitive inhibition function in depression reduces the control of negative automatic thoughts - strengthening working memory is important; 2) different brain mechanisms for processing rewards and punishments in people suffering from depression and in healthy people explain the formation of self-esteem - this knowledge can be an important element of psychoeducation in therapeutic work; 3) neuroimaging studies indicate neuronal correlates of cognitive distortions observed in depression - for further research on depression, it would be particularly important to monitor changes in brain activity in the course of its treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":20863,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatria polska","volume":" ","pages":"669-680"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9934315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a mechanism of action is intended to regulate dopaminergic transmission - inhibit (antagonism) it in pathways where it is excessive (excessive transmission in the mesolimbic pathway in psychotic patients, excessive transmission in the tuberoinfundibular pathway in patients with hyperprolactinemia) and stimulate (agonism) it in pathways where it is too low (mesocortical pathway).
