求教thymoleptic的正解是什么?
如题,有的地方将thymoleptic解释为抗抑郁,除此之外还有什么解释??thymoleptic
antidepressant(抗抑郁) 由词根“thymo- 胸腺; 精神、感情(混乱) + leptic-薄,弱, 细”构成
psycho-主要指心理、思维方面;
thymo-主要指情感方面:喜怒哀乐。
思维、识别方面的混乱用psycho-
情感方面的用thymo-:
lept (o) - (为"瘦的"、"薄", 细,软)意思
所以整个单词的意思就是:使精神、感情方面的混乱变弱
so, 大家一般翻译为:
thymoleptic: 抗抑郁药 我知道了,应该是抗情感障碍药或称抗躁狂抑郁药,因为情感障碍不仅包括抑郁还包括躁狂,而且药理书中有这种称谓,我想应该差不多就是这个。
另外,这点也可通过一篇文献中的内容证明“These atypical agents not only have antipsychotic activity but may also possess thymoleptic properties with favorable effects on the depressive and manic symptoms of patients with bipolar disorders.”
多谢了! 看看这里面的definition:
