Desigualtats en salut en un marc integrat de gènere, classe social i treball

Artazcoz Lazcano, Lucía 23 November 2004 (has links)
Objectiu: Analitzar l'impacte de les desigualtats de gènere i de classe relacionades amb el treball en l'estat de salut de les dones i els homes de 25 a 64 anys.Mètodes: Tres dels cinc estudis inclosos en aquesta tesi han estat basats en l'Enquesta de Salut de Catalunya de 1994 i constitueixen una trilogia que analitza les desigualtats des de tres mirades: la que analitza les diferències en l'estat de salut entre les dones ocupades i les mestresses de casa; la que analitza l'efecte de la doble jornada en l'estat de salut sobre la salut de les dones i els homes i, finalment, la que compara les diferències de gènere en l'impacte de l'atur sobre l'estat de salut mental i examina el paper dels rols familiars. A més, hi ha dos estudis addicionals, un basat en l'Enquesta de Salut de Terrassa de 1998 i l'altre en la Encuesta Navarra de Condiciones de Trabajo de 1997 sobre les diferències de gènere en l'impacte de la doble jornada. L'anàlisi estadística s'ha basat fonamentalment en l'ajust de models de regressió logística multivariats separats pel sexe i, en el cas dels estudis basats en l'Enquesta de Salut de Catalunya, també per la classe.Resultats: Es demostra que globalment la incorporació de les dones al mercat de treball sembla tenir un efecte positiu sobre el seu estat de salut però l'efecte invers en estils de vida relacionats amb el fet de disposar de temps lleure. Aquesta manca de temps lleure estaria associada a les dificultats per compaginar vida laboral i familiar, sobretot entre les dones de classes més desfavorides en les què l'impacte de la doble jornada sobre la salut - que en absolut afecta els homes - és superior que entre les dones més privilegiades. De fet, per a les dones que han de compaginar vida laboral i familiar, es demostra que disposar d'una persona contractada per a les feines de la llar té un efecte protector en la seva salut percebuda. Finalment, es demostra que perdre el treball remunerat té més impacte sobre la salut mental dels homes, però no per la menor implicació de les dones en el treball remunerat sinó per la seva major responsabilitat en la unitat familiar que actuaria com element protector.Conclusions: L'anàlisi de les desigualtats en salut requereix la integració dels marcs de gènere i de classe i, en el cas de la població de 25 a 64 anys, del paper del treball remunerat i del domèstic. Els determinants socials de l'estat de salut de les dones i els homes són diferents i en gran mesura estan determinats per la interaccions amb la classe social i els treballs. / Objective: To analyse the impact of gender and class inequalities related to work in the health status of women and men aged 25-64.Methods: Three of the five studies are based on the 1994 Catalonian Health Survey and constitute a trilogy that analyse health inequalities from three points of view: the health differences between female workers and full-time homemakers; the comparison of the effect of combining job and family responsibilities between women and men and, finally, the analysis of gender differences in the impact of unemployment on mental health and additionally examines de role of family responsibilities. Moreover, two additional studies based on the 1998 Terrassa Health Survey and on the 1997 Navarra Working Conditions Survey further analyse the gender differences in the impact of combining job and family demands on health. Statistical analysis has been based on the adjustment of multivariate logistic regression models separated for sex, and in the studies based on the Catalonian Health Survey, also by social class.Results: Women entrance into the labour market has had an overall positive impact on their health but a reverse effect on lifestyles related to leisure time. The lack of leisure time is related to the difficulties for combining job and family responsbilities, primarily among less favoured women. In this group the impact of the double burden - that does not affect men's health - is higher than among more privileged women. In fact, among women who have to combined job and family demands, hiring a domestic worker is protective for their self-perceived health status. Finally, we have demonstrated that loosing a job have a higher impact on male's mental health, but it seems that this is not related to the lower attachment of women to the labour markers, but to their higher involvement on family responsibilities that buffers the impact of unemployment.Conclusions: The analysis of gender inequalities in health requires the integration of the gender and social class frameworks and, among people aged 25-64, also of that of work. Social determinants of health status of women and men are different and, to a great extent, they are determined by the interactions with social class and work.

Casais de mesmo sexo, parentalidade e novas tecnologias reprodutivas / Same-sex couples, parenthood and new reproductive technologies

Souza, Camila Vitule Brito de 29 August 2014 (has links)
A configuração tradicional da família, composta pela família nuclear (pai/homem, mãe/mulher e filhos) vem sofrendo transmutações cada vez mais evidentes durante as últimas décadas. No Brasil, a luta pela normatização social e legislativa do casamento entre pessoas do mesmo sexo vem sendo travada e a vivência da parentalidade tem se tornado parte da luta de casais de mesmo sexo. Nesse sentido, um número crescente de famílias homoparentais passam a ser efetivamente formadas. As Novas Tecnologias Reprodutivas (NTR), assim como a adoção, fazem parte dos meios que esses casais têm utilizado para a concretização do sonho da parentalidade. As NTR são um produto médico de consumo que, ao desvincular sexo e reprodução, coloca esta última como questão de escolha, possibilitando diferentes arranjos parentais via compra de intervenção tecnológica. Dentro desse contexto, o estudo centrou-se nas concepções dos casais de mesmo sexo sobre o uso de NTR na efetivação do projeto de parentalidade. O estudo de natureza qualitativa foi realizado com casais de mesmo sexo, tanto de homens como de mulheres, que tinham o plano de terem filhos ou que já os tivessem tido. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com um grupo de 26 pessoas composto por 12 casais e dois sujeitos (um homem e uma mulher), todos residentes na Região Metropolitana de São Paulo, Brasil, entre os anos de 2011 e 2012. Os resultados apontam que os laços biológicos se fazem preponderantes nos discursos dos casais de mulheres, bem como há uma maior tendência destas a utilizarem/quererem utilizar as NTR, principalmente a ROPA (Recepção de Óvulos da Parceira). Os casais de homens, mesmo quando apontam para o desejo de terem um filho geneticamente aparentado, optam pelo recurso da adoção, dentre outros motivos, pelo receio do vínculo que possa ser estabelecido, por meio da gestação, entre a mãe de aluguel e a criança. A análise produzida a partir dos dados empíricos contribui para o debate sobre a relação entre famílias homoparentais e uso de tecnologias médicas. Isso porque problematiza como as NTR incorporam mudanças fundamentais no parentesco contemporâneo ocidental, e como a medicina e a sociedade caminham juntas na construção de novos significados acerca da parentalidade, num movimento em que natureza e cultura imiscuem-se tornando-se cada vez mais difícil e contraprodutivo separá-las / Family\'s traditional configuration, composed by the nuclear family (father/man, mother/woman and children) has been passing through evident transmutations during the last decades. In Brazil, the fight for social and legal standardizations of same-sex marriage has been occurring and the experience of parenthood has become part of the fight of same-sex couples. In this sense, homoparental families begin to be effectively formed. New Reproductive Technologies (NRT), as adoption, make part of the resources that these couples have been using to fulfill their dream of parenthood. NRT are a medical consumer product, which unlinking sex and reproduction make reproduction a matter of choice, enabling different parenthood arrangements through purchase of technological intervention. In this context, the study focused the same-sex couples conceptions about the use of NRT in their parenthood´s project effectiveness. The qualitative study was developed with same-sex couples, both men and women, who had plans to have children or have already had them. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 26 respondents, composed by 12 couples and two subjects, resident in the metropolitan area of São Paulo, Brazil, between 2011 and 2012. The results point out the preponderance of biological bond in female couples speeches and that there is a tendency of such couples to use/want to use NRT, mainly ROPA (Reception of Oocytes from Partner). Male couples, even when they show the desire to have a genetically related child, choose adoption, among other reasons, for the fear of the bond that may be established through pregnancy between the surrogate mother and the child. The analysis produced from empirical data contributes to the debate about the relationship between homoparental families and the use of medical technologies, once it discusses how NRT incorporate fundamental changes in occidental contemporary kinship and how medicine and society walk together building new meanings to parenthood in a process that nature and culture encroach up, turning increasingly difficult and counter-productive to separate them

Fatores de risco para saúde mental materna e seu impacto sobre o estado nutricional infantil / Risk of fators mothers mental health and for impact infant nutritional status

Paffer, Adriana Toledo 15 January 2009 (has links)
Common mental disorders (CMD) are the result of multiple factors interaction (biological, psychological and social) and have a high prevalence, being more frequent among women. Several studies show the association between CMD and child malnutrition, particularly in the 2 first years of life, when the interaction with the mother is essential for child growth. Recent evaluations indicate that intervention focus should shift from food provision to the change of mother´s behavior. One of the approach components´ is maternal mental health. The Alagoas State semi-arid region is very poor and the population is exposed to food and nutritional insecurity. The objective of this dissertation is to investigate the association between maternal CMD and child malnutrition in children 6 to 24 months old in urban and rural environments. It will be done considering socio demographic variables and the mothers´ nutritional status. Two papers are the result of this Project. The first is entitled Factors related to mothers´ mental health in the semi-arid region of Alagoas: the role of the urban/rural environment . In this study we observed that the prevalence of CMD in the rural area was 56.2% vs 43.8% in urban area (OR = 1.03 CI 95% 0.64-1.63). Regarding urban area, education was the variable that remained significant in the logistic regression (OR = 2.2 95% CI 1.03-4.6) while in the rural area, lack of partner was the variable that remained associated to TMC (OR = 2. 6 95% CI 1.01-6.7). The second article was entitled "Mental health and maternal nutritional status of children in the semiarid region of Alagoas, Brazil. The overall prevalence of CMD was 44.3%. In mothers of malnourished children was 42.0% while in mothers of eutrophic children it was 44.6%. In the logistic regression found that the significant variables were: birth weight OR = 3.6 (95% CI 1.08-12.4) and breastfeeding OR = 6.7 (95% CI 1.76 to 25.5). In this study was not observed association between maternal CMD and child malnutrition. The high prevalence of CMD in this population may have hampered the detection of a possible association between CMD and child malnutrition. These results suggest the need to focus planning of maternal mental health care in order to reduce the burden both of mothers and their children. / Os transtornos mentais comuns (TMC) resultam da interação de múltiplos fatores (biológicos, psicológicos e sociais), apresentando alta prevalência, sobretudo em mulheres. Vários estudos mostram associação entre TMC e a desnutrição de seus filhos, particularmente nos 2 primeiros anos de vida, quando uma boa interação com a mãe é indispensável para o seu adequado crescimento. Avaliações recentes referem que a ênfase das intervenções deveria deslocar-se da provisão de alimentos para um esforço no sentido de mudar o comportamento das mães. Um dos componentes desta abordagem é a saúde mental materna. O semi-árido alagoano é uma região muito pobre e sua população está mais exposta à insegurança alimentar e nutricional. O objetivo desta dissertação foi investigar a associação entre TMC maternos com fatores de risco sócio-demográficos e estado nutricional materno em ambiente urbano e rural e avaliar a associação entre TMC materno e desnutrição em crianças de 6 a 24 meses na região semi-árida de Alagoas. Este estudo resultou em dois artigos. O primeiro foi intitulado Fatores associados à saúde mental de mães do semi-árido alagoano: o papel do contexto urbano/rural . Neste estudo observou-se que a prevalência de TMC na zona rural foi 56,2% vs 43,8% na zona urbana (OR=1,03 IC95% 0,64-1,63). Na regressão logística da área urbana, escolaridade foi a variável que permaneceu significativa no modelo (OR= 2,2 IC 95% 1,03-4,6) e na rural a variável associada à TMC foi ausência de companheiro (OR= 2,6 IC 95%1,01-6,7); o segundo artigo foi intitulado Saúde mental materna e estado nutricional de crianças da região semi-árida de Alagoas, Brasil . A prevalência geral de TMC foi de 44,3%. Em mães de crianças desnutridas foi 42,0 % e em mães de crianças eutróficas foi 44,6%. Na Regressão Logística verificou-se que as variáveis significativas foram: peso ao nascer OR= 3,6 (IC 95% 1,08-12,4) e aleitamento materno OR= 6,7 (IC 95% 1,76 25,5). Neste estudo não foi observado associação entre TMC materno e desnutrição infantil. A alta prevalência de TMC na população estudada pode ter dificultado a detecção de uma possível associação entre TMC e a desnutrição infantil. Estes resultados apontam para a necessidade de aumentar a atenção à saúde mental materna no planejamento de políticas públicas com o objetivo de reduzir os danos tanto para a mãe como para as crianças.
