'abstract': '<jats:p>Наряду с легкими и другими внутренними органами COVID-19 поражает и центральную '
'нервную систему. Воспалительные реакции, секреция цитокинов в головном мозге вызывают у '
'большинства пациентов тревожные и депрессивные симптомы, нарушения сна. Психические '
'расстройства связаны и с психосоциальными факторами пандемии. Для купирования '
'психопатологических симптомов при COVID-19 часто используются антидепрессанты из группы '
'селективных ингибиторов обратного захвата серотонина. Среди них особое место занимает '
'флувоксамин. Флувоксамин помимо антидепрессивных и противотревожных эффектов проявляет четкие '
'противовоспалительные свойства, которые реализуются посредством двух механизмов. Флувоксамин '
'существенно повышает уровень ночного мелатонина в плазме крови. Мелатонин оказывает '
'противовоспалительное, антиоксидантное и нормализующее хронобиологическое действие. Второй '
'механизм связан с тем, что флувоксамин в терапевтических дозировках активирует сигма-1 '
'рецепторы, что предупреждает секрецию цитокинов и развитие эндоплазматического стресса. '
'Пациенты с COVID-19, принимавшие флувоксамин, не отмечали клинических осложнений '
'коронавирусной инфекции.</jats:p>\n'

'<jats:p>COVID-19 affects central nervous system along with lungs and other internal organs. '
'Inflammatory reactions, secretion of cytokines in brain cause anxiety and depressive '
'symptoms, sleep disturbances in most patients. Mental disorders are also associated with '
'psychosocial factors of the pandemic. SSRI antidepressants are often used to relieve '
'psychopathological symptoms in COVID-19. Among them, fluvoxamine occupies a special place. '
'Fluvoxamine, in addition to antidepressant and anti-anxiety effects, exhibits clear '
'anti-inflammatory properties, which are realized through two mechanisms. Fluvoxamine '
'significantly increases the level of nocturnal melatonin in blood plasma. Melatonin has '
'anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and chronobiological normalizing effects. The second mechanism '
'is associated with the fact that fluvoxamine in therapeutic dosages activates sigma-1 '
'receptors, which prevents secretion of cytokines and development of endoplasmic stress. '
'Patients with COVID-19 taking fluvoxamine did not report clinical complications of '
'coronavirus infection.</jats:p>',
