Abstract:
AbstractTransgender men and women experience an incongruity between their assigned sex at birth and their identified gender. Gender dysphoria is defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5) as clinically significant distress or impairment resulting from misalignment in assigned and experienced gender. Transgender people have a history of negative experiences in health care and efforts should be made to create a welcoming environment through staff training, gender neutral restrooms, and gender inclusive electronic medical record systems. Transgender men and women face unique preventive health concerns in areas of metabolic screening, cancer screening, immunizations, and anticipatory guidance secondary to cross-sex hormone therapy, gender confirming surgical procedures, and certain high-risk behaviors. Here, the available data are reviewed and suggested best practices are outlined to optimize the preventive health for this patient population.

Abstract:
Gender equity refers to the fairness and justice in the allocation of benefits and responsibilities between women and men, while gender-based inequity may emanate from a psychosocial, epidemiological; or perhaps a global perspective. The concepts of gender equity are merely elusive; nevertheless, increasingly have been used inappropriately. Gender inequities in mental health, pervasive in South Asian societies, indicates biases in power, resources, entitlements, and the way organizations are arranged and programs are designed to adversely affect the lives of millions of women. Four major areas highlighted in this study are: Prevalence of gender inequality in mental health; role of gender in South Asia; unraveling gender and mental health paradox in South Asia; and effective strategies to minimize gender inequality. Eliminating gender inequalities requires not only acknowledging the necessity of basic medical services to women, but scrutinizing mental health through a gender lens and taking measures for expanding women’s accessibility, affordability and suitability to mental health facilities in South Asian countries.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.16(2) 2017 p.203-206

Abstract:
A depressão em mulheres tornou-se um grave problema de saúde pública e importante causa de incapacitação tanto em países em desenvolvimento como nos desenvolvidos. De acordo com a literatura psiquiátrica, a mulher apresentaria maior vulnerabilidade à depressão devido à influência do ciclo reprodutivo feminino e às diferentes fases e oscilações hormonais pelas quais as mulheres passariam durante suas vidas, entre outros fatores que aumentam sua vulnerabilidade. Configura-se como de fundamental importância, portanto, a contribuição das ciências sociais para a compreensão e discussão da questão da depressão feminina, bem como da própria definição do fenômeno. O presente trabalho tem como objetivos: caracterizar o perfil sociodemográfico e trajetórias de vida das mulheres com diagnóstico de depressão, sujeitos da pesquisa; identificar motivos que levaram as mulheres a buscar assistência em saúde por ocasião do diagnóstico de depressão; desvelar sentidos atribuídos pelas mulheres à experiência do diagnóstico de depressão; caracterizar processos de elaboração da vivência com a depressão pelas próprias mulheres; analisar as narrativas das mulheres, a partir da leitura biomédica e de gênero, na perspectiva das ciências sociais. A pesquisa, de natureza qualitativa, utilizou a técnica dos depoimentos pessoais para a coleta de dados a partir de roteiro temático. As narrativas foram interpretadas com base na análise do discurso à luz das ciências sociais. Os discursos das mulheres revelaram a multidimensionalidade e a interligação dos sintomas da depressão, bem como a diversidade de motivos atribuídos à doença, tais como histórias de conflitos familiares, violência doméstica, sobrecarga de responsabilidades, luto de familiares e interferência espiritual. A medicação juntamente com a prática religiosa foram as principais estratégias utilizadas pelas mulheres para enfrentar a doença. Entretanto, a influência de conceitos e valores de gênero na saúde mental, bem como o silêncio a respeito da violência e o isolamento social demonstraram a importância de novas formas de abordagem e intervenção por parte dos serviços de saúde no que se refere ao fenômeno da depressão.<br>Depression in women has become a serious public health problem and major cause of disability in both developed and developing countries. According to psychiatric literature, women present higher vulnerability to depression due to the influence of the female reproductive cycle and different phases and hormonal fluctuations they would face during their lifetime, among other factors. The contribution of social sciences is, therefore, of paramount importance for understanding and discussing the issue of female depression, as well as the very definition of the phenomenon. This study aims at characterizing the sociodemographic profile and life trajectories of women diagnosed with depression, subjects of the present research; identifying reasons why women seek health care at the time of the diagnosis of depression; uncovering the meanings attributed by such women to the experience of such diagnosis; characterizing processes of elaboration of the experience of living with depression by women themselves and analyzing the narratives of women as from biomedical and gender readings from the perspective of social sciences. The research is qualitative, having used the technique of personal accounts to collect data from the viewpoint of a thematic guide. The narratives were interpreted through discourse analysis from the viewpoint of the social sciences. The womens discourse revealed the multidimensionality and interconnection of the symptoms of depression as well as the diversity of motives attributed to the disease, such as histories of family conflicts, domestic violence, excessive responsibility, grieving relatives and spiritual interference. Medication along with religious practice were the main strategies used by women to cope with the illness. However, the influence of concepts and gender values in mental health, as well as silence about violence and social isolation have demonstrated the importance of health services using new approaches and practices regarding the phenomenon of depression.

Women have different physical characteristics that empower the harmful effects of psychoactive substance use, yonder the suffering of self-stigma, prejudice and stigmatization process by society. This fact demands from the health team the implementation of differentiated actions for this specific population. This study has the aim to analyze the perception of the health team from a CAPS AD from a city in the countryside of São Paulo state about their developed work towards a woman who uses alcohol and other drugs problematically. It is about a case study of qualitative method performed from November 2013 to March 2014, with 12 health professionals from a CAPS AD team, using semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and as analysis technique, the thematic content analysis. The study had as theoretical-interpretative framework the everyday and not everyday concept of Agnes Heller. Three thematic categories came up: development of the assistance work, development of the administrative and educational work and the difficulties on the everyday work with the women users. The results pointed the valorization of reception and qualified hearing activities by the health team, despite the predominance of assistance work be geared toward the male audience. The team’s meeting was a collective management strategy identified by the health professionals in the administrative dimension. In the educational scope the CAPS AD consisted on practical scenario of teaching and learning, strengthening the academics’ and health workers’ education. The main difficulties consisted on the material environmental and human conditions at CAPS AD, in the everyday work. The fragilities found in the organization’s network of psychosocial care of the city reflected on the development work of these professionals, creating physical and emotional overload. It was concluded that despite the prevalence of a pragmatic repetitious and alienated work, the health professionals could ponder discreetly about the work developed with the female audience.<br>O consumo de drogas lícitas e ilícitas tem aumentado de forma considerável entre as mulheres, o que se torna uma grande preocupação para os gestores e um problema de saúde pública. As mulheres possuem diferenças físicas que potencializam os efeitos danosos do uso das substâncias psicoativas, além de sofrerem autoestigma, preconceito e processo de estigmatização pela sociedade. Tal fato requer da equipe de saúde a implementação de ações diferenciadas para esta população específica. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a percepção da equipe de saúde de um CAPS AD de uma cidade do interior paulista sobre o seu trabalho desenvolvido, diante da mulher que faz uso problemático de álcool e outras drogas. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, de método qualitativo, realizado no período de novembro de 2013 a março de 2014, com 12 profissionais de saúde de uma equipe de CAPS AD, utilizando-se entrevista semiestruturada, observação participante e, como técnica de análise, a análise de conteúdo temática. O estudo teve como referencial teórico-interpretativo os conceitos de cotidiano e não cotidiano de Agnes Heller. Surgiram três categorias temáticas: desenvolvimento do trabalho assistencial; desenvolvimento do trabalho administrativo e educacional e dificuldades no cotidiano do trabalho com as usuárias mulheres. Os resultados apontaram a valorização das atividades de acolhimento e escuta qualificada pela equipe de saúde, apesar do predomínio de trabalho assistencial direcionado para o público masculino. A reunião de equipe foi uma estratégia de gestão coletiva identificada pelos profissionais de saúde, na dimensão administrativa. No âmbito educacional, o CAPS AD consistiu em cenário prático de ensino-aprendizagem, fortalecendo o processo de formação dos acadêmicos e trabalhadores de saúde. As principais dificuldades consistiram nas condições materiais, ambientais e humanas no CAPS AD, no cotidiano de trabalho. As fragilidades encontradas na organização da rede de atenção psicossocial do município refletiram no desenvolvimento do trabalho destes profissionais, gerando sobrecarga física e emocional. Concluiu-se que, apesar do predomínio de um trabalho pragmático, repetitivo e alienado, os profissionais de saúde conseguiram refletir discretamente sobre o trabalho desenvolvido com o público feminino.

Researches show that Puerperal depression occurs in 10-15% of women in the general population; in 60% of these women it represents the first severe form of depression. This case study intends to understand the psychodynamism in the puerperal depression, its etiology and its significance in the mother s history. The clinical material presented is from a psychological evaluation process that had continuity with a psychoanalytical clinical work. The theoretical work was based on general bibliographical research and psychoanalysis authors. We researched about the diagnosis of the puerperal depression and its etiology. We discussed about the environment and the societies (historically) interference in the intercurrences of the maternity, such as depression. We also recognized that the way each postpartum women history life constitutes would excessively influence in the childbirth and in the puerperal. The maternity reactivates the infancy experiences and, mainly, the primary of the psychic life. The puerperal depression can appear as result of imperfections in the primitive emotional development of the postpartum women, mainly with those related to the experience of the depressive position, to the primary narcissism and the constitution of superego, and, especially, to the experience had in her birth. The puerperal depression and maternity study are very important because it contributes with the clinical practice, with all professionals involved with mental health, and with the organizations that searches for general population intervention<br>As clínicas psicológica e médica têm constatado que uma parte significativa das mulheres passa por alguma forma de depressão decorrente da maternidade.

O presente estudo pretende compreender o psicodinamismo na depressão puerperal, sua etiologia e significação na história da mãe. Buscamos realizar tal objetivo, através do estudo de um caso. O material clínico aqui apresentado é oriundo de um processo de avaliação psicológica que teve continuidade com um trabalho clínico psicanalítico. A articulação teórica se realizou com o levantamento bibliográfico geral e com autores da psicanálise. Abordamos o diagnóstico da depressão puerperal e sua etiologia. Discutimos sobre a participação do ambiente e das sociedades (historicamente) nas intercorrências da maternidade, entre elas, a depressão. Também, reconhecemos que a maneira como se constitui a história de vida de cada puérpera influenciará sobremaneira nos desdobramentos do parto e puerpério. A maternidade reativa as vivências da infância e, principalmente, dos primórdios da vida psíquica. A depressão puerperal pode surgir como decorrência de falhas no desenvolvimento emocional primitivo da puérpera, principalmente com aquelas relacionadas à vivência da posição depressiva, aos desdobramentos do narcisismo primário e da constituição do superego, e, especialmente, à experiência que teve no seu próprio nascimento. As pesquisas voltadas para o estudo da depressão puerperal e da maternidade são importantes, porque podem contribuir com a prática clínica, com os demais profissionais envolvidos com saúde mental e com as organizações que buscam uma intervenção sobre a população em geral

Abstract:
Cultural and social influences on mental and physical health are increasingly recognized by social science researchers. Researchers have found that specific, Afrocultural factors are related to the functioning of African Americans. The current research considered whether interdependence is especially salient for African American women since women and African Americans tend to define themselves within the context of social relationships. The study outlines processes affecting the mental and physical health of African American women including communalism, collective efficacy, and social capital. The also study examined the relationship between socioeconomic status and both mental and physical health among African American women in a low-income residential area. The effect of social capital and collective efficacy on mental and physical health above income was analyzed using hierarchical regression. One-hundred-thirty African-American women in a low-income area of Richmond, Virginia completed surveys between October 2002 and October 2004 measuring social capital, collective efficacy and general health and mental health. Level of education served as a proxy for socioeconomic status. The study's central hypothesis was that social capital and collective efficacy, an indicator of social capital, would moderate rather than mediate the association between socioeconomic status and the outcome variables in this population due to the importance of relationships in the African American culture and in the lives of women. Both moderation and mediation models were tested. Significant relationships were found between income and both physical health and mental health. There were no significant relationships found between social capital and physical health, mental health, or socioeconomic status and mediation was not established. The results also did not establish social capital as a moderator between socio-economic status and the outcome variables. This lack of relationship may be related to several factors including the homogeneity of the sample in terms of socioeconomic status and challenges associated with the use of a new measure for social capital. Meaningful comparisons of social capital between socioeconomic levels could not be made.

Abstract:
This study examined the relationship between perceived social support and negative mental health outcomes in battered women. Correlations between perceived social support and depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder were analyzed. Perceived social support, particularly from family members, was found to be significantly related to mental health outcomes. Results indicate that agencies that work with battered women should include social support in the assessment and intervention processes. The study utilized a quantitative survey design with a sample of 120 battered women from four domestic violence agencies throughout Riverside and San Bernardino counties. Quantitative data analysis procedures, such as multivariate analysis and logistic regression, were used to further examine variables. Samples of the instruments used in the study are included.

Abstract:
This thesis examines mental health utilization amongst African-American women. The study specifically investigated the factors that may predict help seeking behaviors: depression, stigma, African acculturation, mistrust, and religious commitment. The study also examined the role demographics has on African-American women utilizing mental health services. The study examined the following demographics, income, age, marital status, and education status. The sample size consisted 40 African American women, with ages ranging from 18 to 65. The results indicated that age and depression may impact African-American women seeking mental health services. The results showed that stigma, African acculturation, mistrust, religious commitment, income, marital status and education have no statistical significance in predicting African-American women utilizing mental health services.

Abstract:
This study was carried out to see what kind of response the blood cells have to a weak stimuli of lipopolysacc-harides (LPS), a substance that in small quantities may be a small part of the blood system. The parameters tested under this condition were: thromboxane A2 (TxA2) (produced in platelets), prostacyclin (PGI2) produced in white cells (mainly monocytes) and induced thromboplastin synthesis in monocytes.Heparinized blood from 40 men and 40 women was incubated with 2 ng LPS/ml blood for 2 hours. Blood cells were then either spun down to obtain plasma or mononuclear cells were isolated from the incubated blood followed by the quantitation of thromboplastin. In order to get measureable PGI2 production, liposomes of soya lecithin were added to amplify this production in monocytes (see abstract by Østerud et al. "Monocyte stimulation--". The quantitation of TxB2 in the resultant plasma samples- revealed a highly significant difference in production of TxA2 between men and women in this system. In the group of men a value of 13.0 ± 5.9 ng/ml was found compared to 7.6 ± 5.8 for women (p&lt;0.01). The liposomes had no effect on the TxA2 production. In contrast, the PGI2 production in women was higher than in men. By quantitating 6-keto-PG 1α concent rat i on in the plasma samples it was found that women had 148 ± 53 pg/ml whereas men had 105± 5 pg/rnl (p&lt; 0.001). ft low index of TxA2 is supposed to be beneficial and associated with PGI2 low frequence of coronary heart disease. In the present study this value was estimated to be 51 for women and 124 in men.A weak but not significant higher thromboplastin activity was found in the stimulated monocytes of men as compared to women (91.4 ± 40.8×10−3/106 cells for men and 74.9 45.6×10−3/ 106 cells for women).It is concluded that blood cell activation in women is less harmful than in men and this may reflect the lower rate of CHD in women as compared to men.

Abstract:
Background. Untreated maternal mental health disorders can have devastating sequelae for the mother and child. For women who are currently or planning to become pregnant or are breastfeeding, a critical question is whether the benefits of treating psychiatric illness with pharmacologic interventions outweigh the harms for mother and child. Methods. We conducted a systematic review to assess the benefits and harms of pharmacologic interventions compared with placebo, no treatment, or other pharmacologic interventions for pregnant and postpartum women with mental health disorders. We searched four databases and other sources for evidence available from inception through June 5, 2020 and surveilled the literature through March 2, 2021; dually screened the results; and analyzed eligible studies. We included studies of pregnant, postpartum, or reproductive-age women with a new or preexisting diagnosis of a mental health disorder treated with pharmacotherapy; we excluded psychotherapy. Eligible comparators included women with the disorder but no pharmacotherapy or women who discontinued the pharmacotherapy before pregnancy. Results. A total of 164 studies (168 articles) met eligibility criteria. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period probably improves depressive symptoms at 30 days (least square mean difference in the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, -2.6; p=0.02; N=209) when compared with placebo. Sertraline for postpartum depression may improve response (calculated relative risk [RR], 2.24; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.95 to 5.24; N=36), remission (calculated RR, 2.51; 95% CI, 0.94 to 6.70; N=36), and depressive symptoms (p-values ranging from 0.01 to 0.05) when compared with placebo. Discontinuing use of mood stabilizers during pregnancy may increase recurrence (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR], 2.2; 95% CI, 1.2 to 4.2; N=89) and reduce time to recurrence of mood disorders (2 vs. 28 weeks, AHR, 12.1; 95% CI, 1.6 to 91; N=26) for bipolar disorder when compared with continued use. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period may increase the risk of sedation or somnolence, leading to dose interruption or reduction when compared with placebo (5% vs. 0%). More than 95 percent of studies reporting on harms were observational in design and unable to fully account for confounding. These studies suggested some associations between benzodiazepine exposure before conception and ectopic pregnancy; between specific antidepressants during pregnancy and adverse maternal outcomes such as postpartum hemorrhage, preeclampsia, and spontaneous abortion, and child outcomes such as respiratory issues, low Apgar scores, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, depression in children, and autism spectrum disorder; between quetiapine or olanzapine and gestational diabetes; and between benzodiazepine and neonatal intensive care admissions. Causality cannot be inferred from these studies. We found insufficient evidence on benefits and harms from comparative effectiveness studies, with one exception: one study suggested a higher risk of overall congenital anomalies (adjusted RR [ARR], 1.85; 95% CI, 1.23 to 2.78; N=2,608) and cardiac anomalies (ARR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.17 to 4.34; N=2,608) for lithium compared with lamotrigine during first- trimester exposure. Conclusions. Few studies have been conducted in pregnant and postpartum women on the benefits of pharmacotherapy; many studies report on harms but are of low quality. The limited evidence available is consistent with some benefit, and some studies suggested increased adverse events. However, because these studies could not rule out underlying disease severity as the cause of the association, the causal link between the exposure and adverse events is unclear. Patients and clinicians need to make an informed, collaborative decision on treatment choices.

Full text
Abstract:
Shia account for approximately 10–15 per cent of the Muslim population in Pakistan, which has a largely Sunni Muslim population. Anti-Shia violence, led by extremist militant groups, dates to 1979 and has resulted in thousands killed and injured in terrorist attacks over the years. Hazara Shia, who are both an ethnic and a religious minority, make an easy target for extremist groups as they are physically distinctive. The majority live in Quetta, the provincial capital of Balochistan in central Pakistan, where they have become largely ghettoised into two areas as result of ongoing attacks. Studies on the Hazara Shia persecution have mostly focused on the killings of Hazara men and paid little attention to the nature and impact of religious persecution of Shias on Hazara women. Poor Hazara women in particular face multi-layered marginalisation, due to the intersection of their gender, religious-ethnic affiliation and class, and face limited opportunities in education and jobs, restricted mobility, mental and psychological health issues, and gender-based discrimination.

The adverse health and social outcomes of sexual coercion: Experiences of young women in developing countries. Population Council, 2004. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/pgy22.1009.

Full text
Abstract:
Although evidence from developing countries is limited, what is available suggests that significant numbers of young women have experienced coercive sex. Studies in diverse settings in Africa, Asia, and Latin America reveal that forced sexual initiation and experiences are not uncommon in all of these settings. Many young victims of abuse fear disclosure as they feel they may be blamed for provoking the incident or stigmatized for having experienced it, and suffer such incidents in silence. Presentations at a meeting held in New Delhi in September 2003 highlighted findings from recent studies that suggest an association between early experiences of sexual violence and a range of adverse physical and mental health and social outcomes. Given that data on the consequences of nonconsensual sex are limited and restricted to a few geographical settings, the scale of the problem and its implications for policies and programs are yet to be established. As noted in this document, presentations at the New Delhi meeting highlighted the need for urgent programmatic action to address young people’s vulnerability to coercive sex and its possible far-reaching consequences.
