A OMS (2001) apontou para a complexa interação de fatores biológicos, psicossociais e socioculturais no seu desenvolvimento e o gênero como um fator determinante. Também tem apontado para prevalência da depressão, presente em mulheres e homens em todas as faixas etárias, classe social, localização, raça, entre outros. No entanto, a atual prevalência tem sido identificada como mais comum nas mulheres, enquanto o uso de substâncias, em homens. Entretanto, há associação entre fatores sociais de gênero, raça, pobreza, urbanização, desenvolvimento sobre a depressão. O objetivo geral desse trabalho foi o de investigar a depressão em mulheres sob o enfoque de gênero. Essa dissertação apresenta-se em formato de dois Artigos Científicos. O Artigo 1 foi produzido com o intuito de mapear o que os pesquisadores no Brasil têm discutido sobre gênero e depressão. Esse artigo realizou, por meio de uma revisão sistemática de literatura, o levantamento de artigos científicos publicados em plataformas virtuais a partir de descritores específicos, no período de 2000 a 2014, por um panorama quanti-qualitativo. Foi realizada a análise qualitativa de 15 artigos. Somente cinco corresponderam a abordagens mais contemporâneas de gênero. Os resultados apontaram para uma escassez de estudos de gênero na depressão. Já o artigo 2 teve como objetivo investigar como o gênero participa da formação do quadro depressivo de mulheres diagnosticadas com este transtorno. Foram realizadas entrevistas semi-estruturadas com nove mulheres diagnosticadas com depressão em um serviço público e em uma clínica particular. Foram levantados os temas nas falas das mulheres participantes, bem como sua frequência e incidência (análise de conteúdo). A partir dos temas, elaborou-se quatro categorias: "vivências relacionais do círculo íntimo", "vivências relacionais do círculo extra-íntimo", "vivências de perspectiva de futuro" e "vivências de depressão". Os resultados apontaram a predominância de vivências relacionadas ao dispositivos amoroso e materno, ressentidas como desfavoráveis e relatadas sobretudo como pertencentes ao passado. Além disso, fez-se evidente um restrito investimento em relações extra círculo íntimo, o que aponta o quanto a vida destas mulheres fica circunscrita ao âmbito privado. / Depression has been one of the most frequent illness modes, universal and risen in the Western world with current estimate of 350 million people and one of the main social burden (WHO, 2015). WHO (2001) alerted to the complex interaction of biological, psychosocial and social in its development and the gender as a determining factor. It has also pointed to the prevalence of depression, presented in women and men in all age groups, social class, location, race, among others. Although, the current prevalence has been identified as most common in women, while the use of substances in men. There is an association between social factors of gender, race, poverty, urbanization, development of depression. The aim of this study was to investigate depression in women under the gender approach. This dissertation presents in in two scientific articles. Article 1 was produced in order to map the researchers in Brazil have discussed gender and depression. This article made through a systematic review of literature, provides a survey of scientific articles published on virtual platforms from specific descriptors, from 2000 to 2014, by a quantitative and qualitative overview. Qualitative analysis of 15 articles was carried out. Only five accounted for more contemporary approaches gender. The results pointed to a shortage of gender studies in depression. And Article 2 aimed to investigate how gender participates in the formation of depression in women diagnosed with this disorder. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine women diagnosed with depression in a public service and in a private practice. The issues were raised in the reports of the participating women and their frequency and incidence (content analysis). From the themes elaborated four categories: "relational experiences of the inner circle," "relational experiences of extra-inner circle", "experiences of future-oriented" and "depression experiences." The results showed the predominance of experiences related to the loving and maternal devices, resentful as unfavorable and reported mainly as belonging to the past. Furthermore, it became evident a restricted investment in extra inner circle relations, which indicates how the lives of these women is restricted to the private sphere. / La depresión ha sido uno de los modos más frecuentes de enfermedad, universal y en el mundo occidental con la estimación actual de 350 millones de personas y una importante carga social (OMS, 2015). OMS (2001) se refirió a la compleja interacción de factores biológicos, psicológicos y socioculturales en su desarrollo y el género como un factor determinante. Asimismo, ha señalado que la prevalencia de la depresión, presentes en las mujeres y los hombres en todos los grupos de edad, clase social, raza, ubicación, entre otros. Sin embargo, la prevalencia actual ha sido identificado como el más común en las mujeres, mientras que el uso de sustancias en los hombres. Sin embargo, existe una asociación entre los factores sociales de género, la raza, la pobreza, la urbanización, el desarrollo de la depresión. El objetivo de este estudio fue investigar la depresión en las mujeres bajo el enfoque de género. Esta tesis doctoral presenta en dos artículos científicos. El artículo 1 se produjo con el fin de asignar los investigadores en Brasil han discutido entre los géneros y la depresión. Este artículo hecho a través de una revisión sistemática de la literatura, la encuesta de artículos científicos publicados en las plataformas virtuales de descriptores específicos, de 2000 a 2014, por una visión cuantitativa y cualitativa. Análisis cualitativo de 15 artículos se llevó a cabo. Sólo cinco representaron más enfoques de género contemporáneo. Los resultados señalaron que la escasez de estudios de género en la depresión.Y el artículo 2 como objetivo investigar cómo participa género en la formación de la depresión en las mujeres diagnosticadas con este trastorno. Las entrevistas semi-estructuradas se realizaron con nueve mujeres con diagnóstico de depresión en un servicio público y en una clínica privada. Las cuestiones se suscitaron en los informes de las mujeres participantes y su frecuencia e incidencia (análisis de contenido). De los temas elaborado cuatro categorías: "las experiencias relacionales del círculo interno", "experiencias de relaciones de círculo extra-interior", "experiencias de orientadas al futuro" y "experiencias de depresión". Los resultados mostraron el predominio de experiencias relacionadas con los dispositivos de amor y maternos, resentido tan desfavorable e informaron sobre todo como pertenecientes al pasado. Por otra parte, se hizo evidente una inversión restringida en las relaciones círculo interno de más, lo que indica cómo las vidas de estas mujeres se limita a la esfera privada.

A assistência à saúde mental da mulher constitui-se em uma questão de dupla intervenção, em especial para aquelas em idade reprodutiva, visto que, a própria condição de maternidade traz riscos à mulher de desenvolver patologias importantes, repercutindo no cuidado com os filhos. O escopo do adoecimento mental além dos componentes biológicos envolvem as relações entre as pessoas e entre as pessoas e seus contextos de vida e, nesse sentido os profissionais da área têm ampliado suas ações além do tratamento por meio de medicamentos. E não é sem grandes dificuldades que a proposição desses serviços tem sido colocada em prática. A legislação diz que os municípios devem apresentar projetos para os serviços que pretendem implantar e, no que dizem respeito à saúde mental, os serviços abertos têm sido incentivados, em consonância com as políticas estabelecidas a partir do movimento de reforma na assistência. No presente trabalho investigou como se deu a entrada de mulheres no serviço de uma cidade do interior do estado de MG. Foram escolhidas aleatoriamente 30 mulheres conforme critérios de inclusão e exclusão de um total de 79. Destas 30, foi possível contatar e entrevistar 21. Foi utilizado o recurso da entrevista semiestruturada com foco nos seguintes tópicos: razões para busca de assistência, situações de vida relacionadas aos sintomas, repercussões do adoecimento mental em suas vidas e percepções sobre a assistência recebida. Os resultados foram apresentados considerando-se a caracterização das participantes e em conformidade com os objetivos, foram apresentados os dados relativos aos temas abordados nas entrevistas. Quanto às características sócio demográficas verificou-se que a maior parte das participantes vive com companheiro, têm de 1 a 5 filhos com idades entre 4 meses a 20 anos de idade não trabalha fora de casa atualmente, mas já trabalhou; a faixa etária predominante foi de 30 a 34 anos; escolaridade ensino fundamental incompleto, cor da pele auto declarada branca, oriundas do próprio município onde o estudo foi realizado. Os sintomas iniciais referidos pelas participantes que as levaram a buscar pela assistência foram alterações físicas, dores de cabeça, aceleração dos batimentos cardíacos, entre outros; psicológicas, tristeza, desânimo e comportamentais, buscar isolamento, negligenciar cuidados aos filhos, dentre outros. Os diagnósticos recebidos foram predominantemente transtornos de ansiedade e de depressão. As situações da vida que, na percepção das participantes, estiveram relacionadas a seu adoecimento foram conflitos conjugais, adoecimento e uso de drogas de pessoas da família. Como este repercutiu em suas vidas esteve ligado a conflitos no trabalho e na família. A assistência recebida é vista como muito boa, mas limitada por ter apenas um profissional responsável por ela. É centrada no medicamento embora seja vista também como um espaço em que podem ser escutadas e orientadas. Ao lado do recurso médico especializado aparece também o contexto religioso como meio de apoio para o enfrentamento dos problemas. O trabalho encontrou resultados semelhantes aos de outros estudos e também pode oferecer elementos ao contexto específico em que ele foi desenvolvido para a organização de serviços de assistência / The mental health care of women is an issue in dual intervention especially for those of reproductive age as the very condition of motherhood brings risks to women of developing major diseases impacting the care of the children. The scope of mental illness in addition to biological components involve the relationships between people and between people and their life contexts and, accordingly, the practitioners have expanded their actions beyond treatment through medication. And it is not without great difficulty that the proposition of these services has been put into practice. The law says that municipalities must submit projects for the services they intend to deploy and, with regard to mental health, open services have been encouraged, in line with the policies established from the reform movement in assistance. In the present study investigated how was the entry of women in the service of a city in the state of Minas Gerais. We randomly selected 30 women as criteria for inclusion and exclusion of a total of 79. Of these 30, we were able to contact and interview 21 was used feature of semi structured interviews with focus on the following topics: reasons for seeking assistance related life situations the symptoms of mental illness impact on their lives and perceptions about the care received. The results were presented considering the characterization of participants and in accordance with the objectives; the data on the topics covered in the interviews were presented. As for socio demographic characteristics found that most participants living with partner, have 1-5 children aged 4 months to 20 years old do not work outside the home today, but has worked; the predominant age group was 30-34 years; education incomplete primary education, self-declared white skin color, derived from the same town where the study was conducted. The initial symptoms reported by participants which led them to seek the assistance were physical changes, headache, rapid heartbeat, among others; psychological, sadness, depression and behavioral seek isolation, neglect care for children, among others. The diagnoses received were predominantly anxiety disorders and depression. Life situations that, in the perception of the participants, were related to marital conflicts, illness and drug use of family members. How this impacted on their lives was linked to conflicts at work and in the family. The assistance received is seen as very good, but limited by only having one professional responsible for it. It is centered in the medicine but is also seen as a space that can be listened to and oriented. Beside the specialized medical resource also appears the religious context as a means of support for dealing with problems. The study found similar results to those of other studies and can also provide elements to the specific context in which it was developed for the organization of medical care

Background: Today, there are over 65 million refugees exist worldwide and arrival of the refugees has increased rapidly in Sweden as well. Refugees and asylum seekers may be more susceptible to mental disorders because of the traumatic events they encounter prior to immigration and adverse circumstances in the new country. Aim: A literature study was aimed at exploring different kind of mental ill health among immigrant refugees and the factors that affect their psychological ill health. Further aim of this study was also to find association between mental disorders observed in refugees and the factors responsible for them.  Method: Systematic literature study has chosen to provide an overall summary of the existing researches within the subject. A systematic search for relevant literature in PubMed and CINAHL was performed and it was limited to original research articles published between 1st January 2008 and 31st December 2017.  Data was extracted from 11 scientific quantitative articles. All the articles were reviewed for quality according to Forsberg & Wengström’s review template. Results: Depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety and somatization are common diagnoses among refugees. Many refugees experienced traumatic events in their home country and during escape. Unfavorable conditions like violence, murder, lack of food, shelter and money affect their mental health negatively. Landing in new country can be expressed in joy, but it did not stay for a long time with upcoming resettlement difficulties such as communication problems, discrimination, unemployment, separation from family and culture. Conclusion: Depression and PTSD were most common among refugees. Unemployment and language difficulties were the main reasons for their miserable mental health. There was an association between mental disorders and the factors like trauma in the home country and on the way to new destination as well as adoption difficulties in a new country.

The study developed a model for projecting potential economies from manpower substitution among the four core mental health professions and applied the model to a proposed substitution situation which would substitute psychologists for psychiatrists in the delivery of a proportion of present private practice (fee-for-service) psychiatry services in British Columbia. The model identifies three controlling variables: treatment substitutability (TS), practice privilege constraints (PPC), and relative payment rates (RR). In the model, TS and PPC are conceptualized as determining the estimated substitutable share of costs (SSC%); RR, in combination with the values derived for SSC%, is then used to estimate potential cost savings (CS%). Two conditions were defined for each of the three controlling variables in order to provide a range of possible values for SSC% and CS%. For reasons of data availability, data were obtained from the Manitoba Health Services Commission for private practice psychiatry services for FY 1984 and estimates of SSC% calculated. These estimates were then applied to B.C. Medical Services Commission data for FY 1984, and projected values of CS% calculated. Calculations were made both for all services and for the subset of psychotherapy services, which accounted for 80 percent of the larger set of services. The results of the study indicated considerable possibilities for manpower substitution, ranging from 35 to 70 percent for all services and 40 to 75 percent for psychotherapy services. However, the study also found that while salaried psychologists offered the possibility of substantial cost savings, a fee-for-service arrangement suggested virtually no potential savings. Projected values of CS% for the salaried alternative were 20 to 40 percent for all services and 15 to 30 percent for psychotherapy services but in the fee-for-service alternative, only 4 to 8 percent for all services and 4 to 7 percent for psychotherapy services. Licensure and market rigidities which might pose barriers to implementation were evaluated and a review of professional training standards (TS), licensure standards (PPC), and funding alternatives (RR) indicated that the projected economies could be achieved with no necessity for modifications in existing arrangements. PPC appear to present almost no barriers to economies from the proposed manpower substitution and those barriers which are presented by TS and RR limitations still allow considerable potential for economies. Thus, the greatest opportunities for intervention in achieving and enhancing the projected, economies appear to be in the exploration of relative payment rates and relative effectiveness of treatment methods (e.g., psychotherapy vs. pharmacotherapy). The study concludes with a discussion of factors lying outside the boundaries of the model but which impinge, nonetheless, upon the feasibility of the proposed substitution and fall, necessarily, to policy makers to address. The existing network of B.C. community mental health centres was suggested as a possible mechanism for the delivery of the substitutable share of private practice psychiatry services. / Medicine, Faculty of / Population and Public Health (SPPH), School of / Graduate
