RESUMO Objetivo: Examinar a associação entre o tempo de tela autorreportado e os sintomas de estresse, ansiedade e depressão em adolescentes. Métodos: Foi realizado estudo com delineamento transversal com 982 adolescentes entre 12-15 anos, matriculados na rede pública de ensino da cidade de Jacarezinho (PR). Para mensurar o tempo de tela, os adolescentes responderam à pergunta: “Considerando um dia típico, quanto tempo você passa assistindo TV, jogando videogame, usando computador ou smartphone?”. O questionário DASS-21 (versão curta) foi utilizado para avaliar os sintomas de depressão, ansiedade e estresse. Análises brutas e ajustadas (idade, sexo e nível de escolaridade materna) entre tempo de tela e indicadores de saúde mental foram realizadas por meio do modelo de regressão linear generalizado, com distribuição de Poisson, adotando a significância de p<0,05. Resultados: Maiores sintomas depressivos foram observados em adolescentes com tempo de tela de 4–6 horas/dia (RP 1,35, IC95% 1,13–1,61) e ≥6 horas/dia (RP 1,88, IC95% 1,62–2,19) quando comparados com seus pares com ≤2 horas/dia. O mesmo foi observado para os sintomas de ansiedade com tempo de tela de 4–6 horas/dia (RP 1,23, IC95% 1,04–1,46) e ≥6 horas/dia (RP 1,50, IC95% 1,28–1,77); e estresse, com 4–6 horas/dia (RP 1,25, IC95% 1,08–1,44) e ≥6 horas/dia (RP 1,49, IC95% 1,30–1,71), também comparados com seus pares com ≤2 horas/dia. Conclusões: O tempo de tela foi associado positivamente com os sintomas de depressão, ansiedade e estresse em adolescentes. Atenção especial deve ser dada àqueles que passam mais de quatro horas por dia em frente a uma tela. Objetivo Métodos 98 1215 12 15 12-1 anos PR. PR .

ABSTRACT Objective: To examine the associations between self-reported screen time and symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression in adolescents. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 982 adolescents aged between 12 and 15 years, enrolled in public schools in Jacarezinho (PR), Brazil. Screen time was assessed by the question “Considering a typical day, how much time do you spend watching TV, playing videogame, using computer or smartphone?” The DASS-21 questionnaire (short form) was used to assess symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. Crude and adjusted analyses (age, sex, and maternal level of education) between screen time and mental disorders symptoms were performed using general linear regression models, with Poisson distribution, with significance level at p<0.05. Results: Higher depressive symptoms were observed in adolescents who reported screen time of 4–6 hours/day (PR 1.35, 95%CI 1.13–1.61) and ≥6 hours/day (PR 1.88, 95%CI 1.62–2.19), compared with their pairs with <2 hours/day. The same was observed for anxiety symptoms with screen time of 4–6 hours/day (PR 1.23, 95%CI 1.04–1.46) and ≥6 hours/day (PR 1.50, 95%CI 1.28–1.77); and stress, with 4–6 hours/day (PR 1.25, 95%CI 1.08–1.44) and ≥6 hours/day (PR 1.49, 95%CI 1.30–1.71), also compared with their pairs with <2 hours/day. Conclusions: Screen time was positively associated with depressive, anxiety, and stress symptoms in adolescents. Special attention should be given to those who spend more than four hours a day in front of a screen.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Burnout results from chronic exposure to work-related stress and it is characterized by a reduction in professional efficacy, feelings of lack of energy/exhaustion, and negativity related to work activities. It has a higher incidence in professions with significant interpersonal contact and among caregivers, making doctors a vulnerable population. The Maslach Burnout Inventory questionnaire is considered the gold standard for measuring this disease. In 2014, quinquennial prevention was described, aiming to prevent harm to patients through strategies that reduce Burnout in doctors. Clinical Case: The case describes a 29-year-old woman, a physician in her final year of Residency in General and Family Medicine, who sought an urgent consultation due to feelings of physical and mental exhaustion, hopelessness, irritability, initial and middle insomnia, for the last three months, and hyperphagia, two months ago. She has requested a sick leave from work because “I can't stand working anymore. I need to sleep for a week”. She identified excessive workload at the Clinic, stemming from the demands of her medical residency, as the main cause. She feels unsupported by her colleagues and Training Supervisor and feels pressured to manage the medical agenda without adequate preparation. She reports occasional errors in prescriptions, leading her to feel the need to repeatedly review records and decisions she has made. She denies any appointment with her designated Work physician ever since she started her internship. Upon physical examination, she appeared slaughtered, with a depressed mood, tearful, restless, and with fleeting eye contact. Applying the Maslach Burnout Inventory: Section A- 34 points- high level; Section B- 28 points- high level; Section C- 25 points- high level. A work leave from work was issued, laboratory studies were requested, and fluoxetine 20 mg and trazodone 50 mg were initiated, along with psychotherapy. So far, the patient has been re-evaluated in three consultations, with organic causes ruled out, and in the last re-evaluation, her scores were: Section A- 20 points- moderate level; Section B- 5 points- low level; Section C- 39 points- moderate level. She reports a decrease in medical errors. She maintained the prescribed medication and psychotherapy. She declined to join a Balint group. A new re-evaluation was scheduled in six months. Discussion/Conclusion: This is a case of a General and Family Medicine Resident Physician, diagnosed with Burnout, who has managed to substantially improve her quality of life and job satisfaction, as well as her personal life, following the implementation of both pharmacological and non-pharmacological measures, along with workplace adjustments and the setting of boundaries. She has successfully reduced her perception of making medical errors, thereby improving the quality of healthcare provided to the patients. The long journey of recovery from Burnout makes the monitoring of this illness imperative not only by the patients Family Doctor and Psychologist, but also by the Occupational physician, targeting the improvement of the quality of life of the healthcare professionals in their occupational activity. This clinical case’s purpose is to address and raise awareness among professionals to the prevention of Burnout, particularly in Residents, promoting quinquennial prevention. It is important to note that only professionals who are fulfilled in their biopsychosocial sphere can provide quality care and significantly reduce medical errors.

RESUMO Introdução: O Burnout resulta da exposição crónica ao stress laboral e caracteriza-se por redução da eficácia a nível profissional, sentimentos de falta de energia/exaustão e negatividade relacionados com a atividade laboral. Tem maior incidência em profissões de elevado contacto com pessoas e em prestadores de cuidados, tornando os médicos uma população vulnerável. O questionário Maslach Burnout Inventory é considerado gold standard para a medição desta patologia. Em 2014 foi descrita a prevenção quinquenária, que pretende evitar o dano para o paciente, atuando no médico através de estratégias que visem a diminuição do Burnout. Caso Clínico: Descreve-se uma mulher de 29 anos, médica, no último ano da especialização em Medicina Geral e Familiar, que recorreu a consulta aberta por sensação de exaustão física e mental, sentimentos de desesperança, irritabilidade, insónia inicial e intermédia, com três meses de evolução e hiperfagia há dois meses. Solicitou certificado de incapacidade temporária para o trabalho, porque “já não aguento mais trabalhar. Preciso de dormir uma semana”. Aponta como principal etiologia o trabalho excessivo no Centro de Saúde, decorrente da exigência do internato médico. Sente-se pouco apoiada pelos colegas de equipa e orientador de formação e considera-se pressionada a gerir a agenda médica sem ter preparação para tal. Relata erros pontuais na prescrição médica, pelo que sente necessidade de rever várias vezes os registos efetuados e as atitudes tomadas. Nega ter sido convocada para qualquer consulta de Medicina do Trabalho desde que ingressou na especialidade. Ao exame objetivo, apresentava-se cabisbaixa, com humor deprimido, chorosa, inquieta e com contacto ocular fugaz. Aplicando o questionário atrás mencionado: Secção A - 34 pontos - nível elevado; Secção B - 28 pontos - nível elevado; Secção C - 25 pontos - nível elevado. Foi emitido o certificado de incapacidade temporária para o trabalho, solicitado estudo analítico e iniciada fluoxetina 20mg e trazodona 50mg, bem como psicoterapia. Até à data, a doente foi reavaliada em três consultas, foi excluída patologia orgânica e na última reavaliação apresentava os seguintes valores: Secção A- 20 pontos- nível moderado; Secção B- 5 pontos- nível baixo; Secção C- 39 pontos- nível moderado. Refere diminuição dos erros médicos. Manteve a medicação instituída, bem como a psicoterapia. Recusou o grupo Balint. Foi programada nova reavaliação em seis meses. Discussão/Conclusão: Trata-se de uma doente, Médica Interna em Medicina Geral e Familiar com o diagnóstico de Burnout, que conseguiu melhorar substancialmente a sua qualidade de vida e satisfação no trabalho e vida pessoal, após a implementação de medidas farmacológicas e não farmacológicas e também após alterações a nível laboral e imposição de limites. Conseguiu diminuir a perceção de erro médico, melhorando assim os cuidados de saúde prestados aos utentes. O longo percurso de recuperação desta doença torna fulcral o acompanhamento destes utentes pela equipa de Medicina do Trabalho, e não só pelo Médico de Família e Psicólogo, visando melhorar a qualidade de vida e saúde dos profissionais no âmbito da sua atividade laboral. Com este caso clínico pretende-se abordar e sensibilizar os profissionais para a prevenção do Burnout, em particular nos médicos internos, fomentando a prevenção quinquenária. De ressalvar que apenas profissionais realizados na sua esfera biopsicossocial conseguem proporcionar cuidados de qualidade e reduzir de forma importante o erro médico.

Abstract Introduction: Positive mental health involves a mix of personal and psychosocial resources, as well as attitudes, affections, and positive behaviors that allow the person to face the challenges that arise in life, at a personal, family, social, and school level. Objective: Determine the association between personal factors and positive mental health in high school students during COVID-19. Methodology: Descriptive correlational study. Intentional non-probabilistic sampling. The sample consisted of 210 students of both sexes, ages 15 to 19, enrolled in cycle 2022-1 of the morning shift. Adolescents with visual conditions were excluded. A personal factors study and Positive Mental Health Scale were applied, with prior assent and informed consent. The statistical analysis was descriptive and inferential Results: The students were 64.8% female, 76.1% were under 17 years of age, 53.3% were in the sixth semester, 42% presented COVID-19 and 45% reported losses due to COVID-19. Global positive mental health was low in 50.5% of students. There was a significant positive statistical association in overall positive mental health with sex p=0.01, and a negative one with suffering from a mental illness p=0.01 and having family members who suffered from a mental illness p=0.05. Conclusion: Mental health of young people was not very positive. It needs to be studied to generate nursing interventions for promotion and prevention of school health to result in effective stress management of young people who are in high school when considering the family, society, and the educational field.

Abstract: Computational psychiatry (CP), based on artificial intelligence technology, plays an increasingly important role in scientific research and medical diagnosis. Epistemic concerns in the ethics of artificial intelligence have also been at the center of debate in CP, but the different epistemic forms of injustice caused by the internal cultures of CP remain unexplained. We distinguish between data-driven and theory-driven cultures and their research purposes via practical examples of CP models deployed in addiction. A data-driven culture may advance medical understanding of biological categories of mental illness, whereas a theory-driven culture provides better explanatory mechanisms between symptoms and biology. We discuss testimonial injustice caused by the silencing of patient voices in a data-driven culture, and hermeneutic injustice caused by the non-sharing of hermeneutic resources in theory-driven culture based on Miranda Fricker’s account of epistemic injustice. We analyze the factors underlying nuances in epistemic forms between the two, such as naturalistic-dominated medical understanding and the system’s epistemic privileging. The above epistemic risks all indicate the intricacies of mental disorders and require that success be assessed in terms of actual benefit to patients. Finally, we emphasize the importance of the patient’s phenomenology and call for greater inclusion of patients in psychiatric decision-making processes.

Resumen: La psiquiatría computacional (PC), basada en la tecnología de la inteligencia artificial, desempeña un papel cada vez más importante en la investigación científica y el diagnóstico médico. Las preocupaciones epistémicas en la ética de la inteligencia artificial también han estado en el centro del debate en la PC, pero las diferentes formas epistémicas de injusticia causadas por las culturas internas de la PC siguen sin explicarse. Distinguimos entre las culturas basadas en los datos y las impulsadas por la teoría y sus propósitos de investigación mediante ejemplos prácticos de modelos de CP mostrados en la adicción. Una cultura impulsada por los datos puede hacer avanzar la comprensión médica de las categorías biológicas de las enfermedades mentales, mientras que una cultura impulsada por la teoría proporciona mejores mecanismos explicativos entre los síntomas y la biología. Basándonos en el relato de Miranda Fricker sobre la injusticia epistémica, discutimos la injusticia testimonial causada por el silenciamiento de los pacientes en una cultura centrada en los datos y la injusticia hermenéutica causada por el hecho de no compartir estos recursos en una cultura centrada en la teoría, Analizamos los factores que subyacen a los matices en las formas epistémicas entre ambas, como la comprensión médica dominada por el naturalismo y el privilegio epistémico del sistema. Todos los riesgos mencionados indican la complejidad de los trastornos mentales y exigen que el éxito se evalúe en términos de beneficio real para los pacientes. Por último, hacemos hincapié en la importancia de la fenomenología del paciente y pedimos una mayor inclusión de los pacientes en los procesos de toma de decisiones psiquiátricas.

Resumo: Psiquiatria computacional (PC), baseada na tecnologia da inteligência artificial, tem um papel crescentemente importante na pesquisa científica e no diagnóstico médico. Preocupações epistêmicas na ética da inteligência artificial tem também estado no centro das discussões da PC, mas as diferentes formas epistêmicas de injustiça causadas pelas culturas internas da PC permanecem inexplicáveis. Distinguimos entre culturas orientadas por dados e orientada por teorias e seus propósitos de pesquisa via exemplos práticos de modelos de PC empregados em dependências. Uma cultura orientada por dados pode avançar a compreensão médica de categorias biológicas de doença mental, enquanto uma cultura orientada por teorias fornece melhores mecanismos explicativos entre sintomas e biologia. Discutimos injustiça testemunhal causada pelo silenciamento de vozes de pacientes em uma cultura orientada por dados e injustiça hermenêutica causada pelo não compartilhamento de recursos hermenêuticos em cultura orientada por teorias, baseados no relato de Miranda Fricker sobre injustiça epistêmica. Analisamos os fatores subjacentes às nuances nas formas epistêmicas entre os dois, tais como a compreensão médica dominada pelo naturalismo e o privilégios epistêmicos do sistema. Todos os riscos epistêmicos citados anteriormente indicam as complexidades dos transtornos mentais e requerem que sucesso seja avaliado em termos de benefício real aos pacientes. Finalmente, enfatizamos a importância da fenomenologia do paciente e clamamos por maior inclusão de pacientes em processos de tomada de decisão psiquiátrica.

Abstract Introduction/Frame: Trust is foundational to qualitative research and program evaluation to ensure that data collection, data analysis, and actionable recommendations improve programs and produce effective outcomes. Concomitantly, building trust between the university and community sectors offers a rich opportunity to join efforts to address public health issues including substance use, homelessness, criminal justice involvement, and mental illness. Research suggests cross-sector collaboration among human services organizations produces effective outcomes when stakeholders are engaged, trust one another, and have shared goals. Developing qualitative program evaluation partnerships between university researchers and human service organizations offers a valuable application of cross-sector collaboration, including the transferability of qualitative research and program evaluation findings. Objective: This conceptual paper aims to highlight the essentiality of trust, summarize the facilitators and barriers of collaboration, and share a case example of a partnership. Additionally, it offers implications for researchers and community partners while outlining the benefits of university/community collaboration. Finally, we will offer a conceptual model of the iterative relationship between trustworthiness, trust, and impact in our evaluation approach. Theoretical Framework: Our approach to community-focused qualitative program evaluation is anchored in an action research paradigm, a use evaluation approach, coupled with trust as the key factor in developing and maintaining effective evaluative relationships. The Impact of Trust: Three areas in which trust is most beneficial to qualitative program evaluation are relationships, data collection, and transferability of results. Conceptual Model: Our model is grounded in three seminal works focusing on trust in business-business relationships, organizational trustworthiness as a mediator to both cognitive and affective trust, and relationship stability in inter-organizational reliance. Final Considerations: We found that using this model allowed quicker research-to-practice implementation of evaluation recommendations, solidified community/university collaborative relationships, and facilitated strategies to address workforce shortages in community human services agencies.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a well-researched and evidence-based psychotherapy that is underutilised in Africa. CBT presents opportunities for occupational therapists to expand their practice, for example by promoting engagement in meaningful and purposeful activity (behavioural activation), engaging with a mental health care user's thoughts during and after participation in activity (cognitive restructuring), and grading exposure to traumatic activities (exposure therapy). However, it is also critical that occupational therapists using CBT techniques culturally adapt these for their practice context and engage in professional development activities to develop their competencies as CBT practitioners. This commentary highlights recent advances in CBT practice and calls for CBT and associated techniques to be made more accessible to mental health care users in Africa. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE • The relationship between participation and mental health is gaining prominence within the field of CBT. Occupational therapists should position themselves as experts in the therapeutic use of activity. • Occupational therapists using CBT techniques should culturally adapt their practice to meet the mental health needs of people living in Africa. • Occupational therapists using CBT techniques should follow internationally recognised pathways to CBT professional development, and register as Affiliated Members of the Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Association of South Africa

ABSTRACT Anxiety refers to a disproportionate fear or worry about the stimulus that generates it. It is a condition that affects people's quality of life and is highly prevalent in the population. This research focused on determining the frequency of anxiety in a sample of the adult population in Paraguay, in the year 2023. The study design was quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional, applied to 225 people, between the months of March to June 2023, through non-probabilistic convenience sampling, where a digital questionnaire with sociodemographic variables and the GAD-7 anxiety instrument was used. The main results were: average age of the participants 24 years ± 9; 55.1% come from Asunción, 32.9% Central and 12% from the interior of the country; 52.4% were women. 25.8% suffer from chronic diseases and 17.8% from mental illness. Regarding general levels, 76% scored in some form of anxiety and 40% in suspected General Anxiety Disorder. A significant association was found between having children, having a job and income and suspicion of general anxiety disorder. It is concluded that anxiety is highly present in the investigated population, and is related to sociodemographic factors.

RESUMEN La ansiedad hace referencia a un temor o preocupación desproporcionados ante el estímulo que lo genera, es una condición que afecta la calidad de vida de las personas y es altamente prevalente en la población.

Se concluye que la ansiedad se encuentra altamente presente en la población investigada, y se relaciona con factores sociodemográficos.

Abstract Objective: Suicide attempt (SA) is the strongest predictive variable for completed suicide. The Department of Cauca in Colombia has an SA rate higher than the national average, but the factors are unknown. The objective was to identify the profiles of SA in children and adolescents of Cauca. Methods: Cross-sectional study, which included all SA (Event-356) records from the SIVIGILA platform in children under 18 years of age between 2016 and 2019. The authors described the variables and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) with the Burt method, according to the completeness of the data to establish the possible SA profiles using STATA 15.1, and R. The Ethics Committee at Universidad del Cauca approved it. Results: The study found 977 SA during this period, 72.4% female, 97.1% adolescent, 74.4% mestizo, 19.3% indigenous, 45.3% resided in municipalities exposed to the armed conflict, 32.3% expressed ideation and previous attempts, and 15.5% prior attempts. The MCA included 810 SA and identified three profiles: “Classic”, which had mestizo adolescents with a history of prior SA, mental illness, or psychoactive substance use problems; “Related to the armed conflict”, which included female adolescents with a first SA and residents in municipalities exposed to the armed conflict; “Ethnic” represented by male indigenous, with housing in a rural area. Conclusion: The SA profiles found in Cauca were “Classic”, “Related to the armed conflict”, and “Ethnic”; these can be considered to implement prevention strategies from a cross-cultural, mental health, and gender perspective, with the presence of the state in the territories.

BACKGROUND. Mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are being increasingly recognised as common adverse outcomes for critical illness survivors. These conditions can have lasting consequences on their wellbeing, ability to return to their pre-illness level of functioning and health-related quality of life. There is a paucity of South African data in terms of the psychological aspects of the post-intensive care unit (ICU) syndrome. OBJECTIVE. To identify and characterise patients who suffered from significant symptoms of mental health disease and poor mental health-related quality of life after ICU admission and who may benefit from appropriate referral, further investigation and medical intervention. METHODS. Critically ill patients in a multidisciplinary tertiary ICU were prospectively enrolled upon ICU discharge. Survivors were screened for anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress syndrome at 6 weeks and 6 months after hospital discharge. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Score (HADS) and the Impact Of Events Scale - Revised (IES-R) were used as screening tools. The mental component summary score (MCS) of the RAND short form-36 was used to determine the effect of psychological symptoms on health-related quality of life (HRQOL). RESULTS. The median age of the 107 ICU survivors was 42 years, and half of them were admitted for complications of COVID-19. Six out of every 10 ICU survivors experienced significant symptoms of anxiety, depression and/or PTSD at follow-up. At the 6-month study visit, 4 out of every 10 patients were experiencing significant psychological symptoms. Those affected had a significantly lower mental HRQOL when compared with those who were unaffected. More than half of those affected had co-occurrence of psychological symptoms. Significant symptoms of anxiety were common, with 5 out of every 10 participants experiencing significant symptoms at either, or both, of the study visits. More than 3 out of 10 of affected patients' symptoms only occurred after the 6-week visit. Associations for significant psychological symptoms comprised female sex, younger age, a diagnosis of trauma and frightening memories of the ICU admission. CONCLUSION. The burden of mental health disease in ICU survivors is substantial, affecting their HRQOL. Six out of 10 patients experienced symptoms of anxiety, depression and PTSD, and more than half of those affected experienced co-occurrence of the conditions. A third of those affected developed these symptoms only beyond 6 weeks after hospital discharge. A potentially modifiable association with psychological symptoms was frightening memories of the ICU stay.

RESUMEN Los estilos de vida de los estudiantes están influenciados por desafíos académicos, carga horaria y preferencias alimentarias no siempre saludables,situación que puede derivar en agotamiento físico, mental y enfermedades. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la relación entre Hábitos Alimenticios (HA), Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC) e Índice de Satisfacción con la Vida y la Comida (ISVC) en 280 estudiantes seleccionados a través de muestreo probabilístico aleatorio. Se aplicó el enfoque hipotético-deductivo. Los resultados han permitido determinar que el Índice de Satisfacción con la Vida (ISV) y el ISVC no están relacionados con el Índice de Alimentación Saludable (IAS). Existe una correlación significativa negativa entre IMC e IAS, indicando que, a mayor índice de alimentación saludable, menor IMC. Sin embargo, el IMC no determina el ISVC, que es subjetivo y personal, relacionándose más con valoraciones personales, familiares, sociales y estilos de vida.

ABSTRACT Students' lifestyles are influenced by academic challenges, workload and not always healthy food preferences, which can result in physical and mental exhaustion and illness. The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between Eating Habits (HA), Body Mass Index (BMI) and Index of Satisfaction with Life and Food (ISVC) in 280 students selected through random probabilistic sampling. The hypothetico-deductive approach was applied. The results have allowed us to determine that the Life Satisfaction Index (ISV) and the ISVC are not related to the Healthy Eating Index (HEI). There is a significant negative correlation between BMI and HEI, indicating that the higher the Healthy Eating Index, the lower the BMI. However, BMI does not determine ISVC, which is subjective and personal, relating more to personal, family, social and lifestyle assessments.

Resumen Siete años después de su publicación en Francia, en 1987 se publicó en Brasil la versión en portugués del libro de Christophe Dejours, intitulado “A loucura do trabalho: estudo de psicopatologia do trabalho” (“El desgaste mental en el trabajo: ensayo de psicopatología del trabajo”). Brasil atravesaba entonces un momento de regreso a la democratización, con la valorización de los derechos sociales, incluidos los valores sociales del trabajo. Este escenario hizo con que el libro encontrara un terreno fértil para su acogida. El libro tuvo un gran impacto al proponer una forma de entender la normalidad y la enfermedad en el trabajo desde una perspectiva que no se limitaba a modelos causales simplistas. Asimismo, el papel defendido en el texto sobre los colectivos de trabajo para el desarrollo de la salud y la realización del propio trabajo, alimentó reflexiones que superaron los enfoques solipsistas del problema, sirviendo de soporte a diversas investigaciones e intervenciones en la realidad brasileña.

Résumé En 1987, “A loucura do trabalho, estudo de psicopatologia do trabalho”, version en portugais du livre inaugural de Christophe Dejours («Travail, usure mentale: de la psychopathologie à la psychodynamique du travail»), est éditée au Brésil, sept ans après sa publication en France. À l'époque, le Brésil traversait une période de retour à la démocratie, avec la valorisation des droits sociaux, parmi lesquels celui des valeurs sociales du travail, ce qui a permis au livre de trouver un terrain fertile à son accueil. L´œuvre a eu un écho important en proposant une manière de comprendre la normalité et la maladie au travail dans une perspective qui ne se limitait pas à des modèles de causalité simplistes. De même, le rôle du collectif que le texte défend, dans le développement de la santé et la réalisation du travail lui-même, a nourri les réflexions qui dépassaient les approches solipsistes de la problématique, servant de référence à de nombreuses recherches et interventions dans la réalité brésilienne.

Abstract In 1987, seven years after its publication in France, the inaugural book by Christophe Dejours, “A loucura do trabalho, estudo de psicopatologia do trabalho” (“Travail, usure mentale: de la psychopathologie à la psychodynamique du travail”), was published in Brazil. At the time, Brazil was undergoing a period of redemocratization, with an emphasis on social rights, including the social values of work. This context provided fertile ground for the book's reception. The work had a significant impact by proposing a way to understand normality and illness in the workplace from a perspective that went beyond simplistic causal models. Similarly, the book highlighted the role of the collective in health and in carrying out the work, fueling reflections that overcame solipsistic approaches to the issue and supported various research and interventions on Brazilian reality.

abstract Introduction: It is known that non-adherence to psychiatric medications has harmful consequences for both patients and society. Objective: To collect information on the incidence of non-adherence, and the factors and causes affecting adherence to psychopharmacological treatment in patients with severe and persistent mental disorders. Methods: A systematic review of scientific articles on adult patients (>17 years) published in the last five years (2015-2020) on specialized databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Scielo and BioMed. Original articles from indexed journals with an impact factor>0.5, in English or Spanish, with an analytical, prospective, retrospective, cross-sectional and randomized design were included. Once the articles were identified, they were analyzed, extracting the information necessary to answer the research questions. Results: Fifteen articles were included. Of these, 40% (n = 6) were published in 2020, 20% (n = 3) were produced in China and 53.3% (n = 8) had an observational design. A total of 5,837 patients were included, of which 50.6% were men (n = 2,955), with moderate adherence (n = 10; 66.7%) reported in 10 investigations. Non-adherence varies from 7.7% to 60.6%. The factors that affect adherence are specific to the patient (age and sex), their family support network, and related to the disease or the treatment. The main cause of non-adherence is lack of insight. Conclusions: Adherence to treatment with psychotropic drugs is multifactorial. Access to mental health services should be improved, with an emphasis placed on patient education and providing greater knowledge of mental illness. Interventions to promote education and interaction with the psychiatrist could be beneficial.

resumen Introducción: Se sabe que la falta de adherencia a los medicamentos psiquiátricos tiene consecuencias perjudiciales tanto para los pacientes como para la sociedad. Objetivo: Recopilar información sobre la incidencia de falta de adherencia, los factores y las causas que afectan a la adherencia al tratamiento psicofarmacológico de los pacientes con trastornos mentales graves y persistentes. Métodos: Revisión sistemática de artículos científicos en pacientes adultos (edad > 17 arios), publicados en los últimos 5 años (2015-2020) en bases de datos especializadas como Pub-Med, Scopus, Scielo y BioMed. Se incluyeron artículos de revistas indexadas con factor de impacto > 0,5 en inglés o español, originales, con diseño analítico, prospectivo, retrospectivo, transversal y aleatorizados. Una vez identificados los artículos, se procedió a su análisis, extrayendo la información necesaria para responder las preguntas de investigación. Resultados: Se incluyeron 15 artículos, el 40% (n = 6) publicados en 2020, el 20% (n = 3) realizados en China y el 53,3% (n = 8) de diseño observacional. Se incluyó una población total de 5.837 pacientes, varones el 50,6% (n = 2.955). Reportaron adherencia moderada 10 investigaciones (66,7%). La falta de adherencia varía desde el 7,7 al 60,6%. Los factores que afectan a la adherencia son propios del paciente (edad y sexo) o su red de apoyo familiar, relacionados con la enfermedad o el tratamiento. La principal causa de la falta de adherencia es la ausencia de insight. Conclusiones: La adherencia al tratamiento con psicofármacos es multifactorial. Se debería mejorar el acceso a los servicios de salud mental, poner énfasis en la formación del paciente y aportar mayor conocimiento de la enfermedad mental; la formación y la interacción con el psiquiatra podrían ser intervenciones beneficiosas.

Abstract: Given the current social distance restrictions across the world, most individuals now use social media as their major medium of communication. Due to this, millions of people suffering from mental diseases have been isolated, and they are unable to get help in person. They have become more reliant on online venues to express themselves and seek advice on dealing with their mental disorders. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 450 million people are affected. Mental illnesses, such as depression, anxiety, etc., are immensely common and have affected an individual’s physical health. Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods have been presented to help mental health providers, including psychiatrists and psychologists, in decision-making based on patients’ authentic information (e.g., medical records, behavioral data, social media utilization, etc.). AI innovations have demonstrated predominant execution in numerous real-world applications, broadening from computer vision to healthcare. This study analyzed unstructured user data on the Reddit platform and classified five common mental illnesses: depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and PTSD. In this paper, we proposed a Transformer model with late fusion methods to combine the two texts (title and post) of the dataset into the model to detect the mental disorders of individuals. We compared the proposed models with traditional machine learning, deep learning, and transfer learning multi-class models. Our proposed Transformer model with the late fusion method outperformed (F1 score = 89.65) the state-of-the-art performance (F1 score = 89 [35]). This effort will benefit the public health system by automating the detection process and informing the appropriate authorities about people who need emergency assistance.

BACKGROUND: Healthcare systems reflect worldviews, specifically in mental health, where norms dictate what is normal and abnormal. The era of coloniality promoted Western dogma over collectivist cultures, which were marginalised. This study explored the perspectives and experiences of Black, isiZulu-speaking, South Africans who utilised multidisciplinary services, based on a Western-based therapy model at a private psychiatric facility in KwaZulu Natal. METHODS: A qualitative descriptive design was utilised. Purposive sampling was utilised to recruit 10 participants. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews. Braun and Clarke's six phases of thematic analysis were used to guide the data analysis. FINDINGS: Three themes with sub-themes emerged from the data: personal perceptions, which explored how isiZulu-speaking people made sense of mental health and mental illnesses. Cultural perceptions were the collectivist method of problem-solving, which stressed the importance of spiritual beliefs. Health-seeking behaviour considered the experience of the isiZulu-speaking mental health care user. Cognitive dissonance prevailed due to the difference between westernised mental health treatment and traditional healing systems. CONCLUSION: The family and community are intertwined in participation, reputation, and healing. There is an emphasis on enduring hardship and following traditions, which are preserved by valued elders. Disregarding these norms can outcast the Zulu individual who strives toward inclusion within the community. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: • Intervention cannot only be at individual level but also community level. • Including the family in psychoeducation and therapeutic goal settingwould be beneficial to the Zulu MHCU. • Group programmes should address gender-specific issues. • Occupational therapists must recognise the importance of participating in spirituality for the healing of the Zulu MHCU and appropriately include it in intervention. • Mental health resources and awareness programmes need to be disseminated atcommunity level. • Competency in the isiZulu language is recommended.
