Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are pervasive pollutants impacting ecosystems worldwide, causing physical harm and behavioral changes in wildlife. MP toxicity mainly depends on size, porosity, weathering, surrounding compounds. MPs disrupt feeding metabolism, resulting reproductive, neurological, disorders. These impacts significantly alter ecological niches reduce animal survival. Understanding these is crucial for assessing the broader effects of plastic pollution developing effective mitigation strategies. This review investigated 110 papers quantifying consequences while considering their_physiological basis, emphasizing significance their potential long-term influence populations ecosystems. study thoroughly investigates model species, including plankton, fish, amphibians, crustaceans, pollinators, mammals. Fish exhibited most significant impact, crustaceans showed least. Mice, representing mammals, displayed severe physiological damage.

It is known that the effectiveness of drug treatment for depression, ammine deficit based, largely unsatisfactory. In this review, we examine proposal a precision therapy has emerged and received strong push by identification role inflammation in depression. However, psychiatry risks being caught reductionist trap searching molecular switch resets whole system switches off disease. This an illusion since human complex depression systemic variable disorder. study, show inadequacy paradigm, and, at same time, illustrate superiority paradigm centered on psychoneuroendocrineimmunology (PNEI). According to PNEI disease being, caused different sources working together: psychological, biological, behavioral. means knowing biological psychological history subject, identifying relational crisis factors, building personalized treatments targeting those factors with tools medicine psychology, which are not reducible combination drugs psychotherapy.
