bookPart Diagnóstico em psiquiatria: desde os primórdios até as classificações contemporâneas(2021) WANG, Yuan-Pang; SANTANA, Geilson Lima; CôELHO, Bruno Mendonça; ANDRADE, Laura Helena Silveira Guerra debookPart Transtornos Somatoformes(2013) SANTANA, Geilson Lima; LOCH, Alexandre Andrade- Correlates and prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorders in the Sa tilde o Paulo metropolitan area, Brazil(2022) COELHO, Bruno Mendonca; SANTANA, Geilson Lima; DANTAS, Heloisa de Souza; VIANA, Maria Carmen; ANDRADE, Laura Helena; WANG, Yuan-PangBackground: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating condition, which generates an extensive burden. We aimed to investigate in a huge metropolitan area, the prevalence of traumatic experiences, the development of PTSD, and its predictors. Methods: Traumatic experiences and PTSD were assessed in 5037 adult individuals of the general population. Cross-tabulations method assessed the prevalence of traumatic events and PTSD. Logistic regression models investigated predictors of lifetime and 12-month odds of PTSD and the conditional probability of developing PTSD for specific traumas. Results: Lifetime and 12-month diagnoses of PTSD were found in 3.2% and 1.6% of the sample. 'Witnessing anyone being injured or killed, or unexpectedly seeing a dead body' (35,7%) and 'being mugged or threatened with a weapon' (34.0%) were the two most reported traumas. The commonest events before PTSD onset were 'sudden unexpected death of a loved one' (34.0%), 'interpersonal violence' (31.0%), and 'threats to the physical integrity of others' (25.0%). Experiences related to ""interpersonal violence "" presented the highest conditional probability for PTSD (range 2.2-21.2%). Being 'sexually assaulted or molested' (21.2% total; 22.3% women; 0.0% men) and being 'raped' (18.8% total; 18.4% women; 20.1% men) were the two experiences with the highest odds for PTSD. While being female was a predictor of less exposure to any event (OR = 0.69), females were more prone to develop lifetime PTSD after exposure to an event (OR = 2.38). Conclusion: Traumatic events are frequent in the general population and a small group of traumatic events accounts for most cases of subsequent PTSD.
- The role of gender in the structure of networks of childhood adversity(2018) COELHO, Bruno Mendonca; SANTANA, Geilson Lima; DUARTE-GUERRA, Leorides Severo; VIANA, Maria Carmen; NETO, Francisco Lotufo; ANDRADE, Laura Helena; WANG, Yuan-PangThe objective of present study is to investigate the relationship between different childhood adversities. The potential impact of early adversity on prevention programs is discussed. Data on twelve childhood adversities was collected from a representative sample of 5037 members of the general population living in a large metropolitan area. Data were analyzed through network analysis, to estimate and compare network connectivity and centrality measures by gender. Over half the respondents had been exposed to at least one adversity during their earlier developmental stage. Among adversity-exposed persons, 48.4% presented simultaneous adversities, most of which were related to 'family dysfunction' and 'maltreatment' (mean = 2.9 adversities). Women reported more adversities than men (59.0% vs. 47.6%). Although the 'global' network connectivity across adversities was similar in both genders, 'regional' distinctions in the network structure were found. While 'neglect' and 'parental death' were more important for women than men, 'parental mental disorders' was more important for men. Gender-related childhood adversities were clustered experiences. Adversities related to 'early family dysfunction' and 'maltreatment' were prominent features in the networks of both boys and girls. Differential preventive and intervention programs should take into account gender-related patterns of exposure and reporting patterns of early adversity.
- (Re) thinking urban mental health from the periphery of Sao Paulo in times of the COVID-19 pandemic(2022) BROWN, Cristobal Abarca; SZABZON, Felipe; BRUHN, Lenora; CABRINI, Daniela Ravelli; MIRANDA, Elisangela; GNOATTO, Jacqueline; ALBERTIN, Paula de Vries; SANTANA, Geilson Lima; ANDRADE, Laura HelenaUrban mental health studies traditionally search for causal relationships between elements of the city and the prevalence of mental disorders. This paper discusses the importance of (re)thinking the 'lived urban experience' from the perspective of city residents about how the immediate environment affects their mental health and how people cope with inequalities. A participatory-action research was implemented in a peripheral area of Sao Paulo - Brazil, in which volunteers from the territory made phone calls to neighbours to provide emotional support during the COVID-19 pandemic. Weekly supervision meetings were held between volunteers and researchers to discuss the experiences shared by community counterparts. Narratives have shown that the lived experience in the city is mediated by multiple layers of 'urban insecurities'. These difficulties pressured people to organise and resist in face of pervasive inequalities as well as to respond to unfolding experiences of social suffering. We highlight the potential of participatory methodologies to observe the ways in which subjects face their structural issues and the suffering that emerge in these circumstances. The understanding of how these conflicts are lived at a subjective level can support studies that are wondering about the mechanisms of how social conflicts 'get under the skin'.
- The Well-being of Brazilian Industry Workers on Returning to the Physical Workplace During the COVID-19 Pandemic(2023) SANTANA, Geilson Lima; BAPTISTA, Marcos Campello; MATOS, Georgia AntonyGomes de; OGATA, Alberto Jose Niituma; MALIK, Ana Maria; ANDRADE, Laura HelenaObjective: Our aim was to assess the prevalence and predictors of well-being among Brazilian industry workers on returning to the physical workplace during the COVID-19 pandemic.Methods: Two thousand two hundred forty-one participants completed an online survey between October and November 2021. Well-being was assessed with the World Health Organization Well-being Index, and the questionnaire also addressed sociodemographic and occupational characteristics and the health of workers and their contacts. Associations were estimated with logistic regression models.Results: The prevalence of adequate well-being was 63.15%. The predictors of poor well-being included being female, younger, working exclusively from home or on a hybrid model, having comorbid disorders, and living with someone with any comorbidity.Conclusions: The identification of vulnerable groups with poor well-being may help organizations to direct efforts to the unmet psychological needs of these employees and develop well-being programs during this transition.
bookPart Epidemiologia dos Transtornos Mentais(2016) ANDRADE, Laura Helena Silveira Guerra de; WANG, Yuan-Pang; JúNIOR, Geilson Lima Santana; COêLHO, Bruno Mendonça; SILVEIRA, Camila Magalhães; SIU, Erica Rosanna; CAMPANHA, Angela Maria; PELUSO, Marco Aurélio Monteiro; VIANA, Maria Carmen- Suicide ideation among Brazilian college students: Relationship with academic factors, mental health, and sexual abuse(2023) ALTAVINI, Camila Siebert; ASCIUTTI, Antonio Paulo Rinaldi; SANTANA, Geilson Lima; SOLIS, Ana Cristina Oliveira; ANDRADE, Laura Helena; OLIVEIRA, Lucio Garcia; ANDRADE, Arthur Guerra; GORENSTEIN, Clarice; WANG, Yuan-PangBackground: Suicide is one of the leading causes of death among youth and its occurrence among college students is a matter of great concern. Challenges of transitional adulting and mental illness increase the likelihood of suicidal cognition in students. The objective of present study was to investigate the prevalence of suicide ideation and associated factors in a representative sample of Brazilian college students (n = 12,245).Methods: Data were drawn from a nationwide survey and further subjected to estimate the prevalence of suicide ideation and its association with socio-demographic and academic characteristics. We performed logistic regression analyses upon a conceptual framework, considering individual and academic factors.Results: The point-prevalence of suicide ideation among college students was 5.9 % (SE = 0.37). In the final regression model, variables associated with the likelihood of suicide ideation were psychopathology, sexual abuse, and academic variables, such as dissatisfaction with the chosen undergraduate course (OR = 1.86; IC95 % 1.43-2.41) and low academic performance (OR = 3.56; IC95 % 1.69-7.48). Having children and religious affiliation were inversely associated with the likelihood of suicide ideation.Limitations: Participants were recruited from state capitals, which limited data generalizability to non-urban college students.Conclusions: The impact of academic life on the mental health of students should be carefully monitored in in-campus pedagogical and health services. Early identification of poor-performance students with social disad-vantages could indicate vulnerable ones who are much in need of psycho-social support.
- Association between childhood adversities and psychopathology onset throughout the lifespan: Findings from a large metropolitan population(2021) COELHO, Bruno Mendonca; ANDRADE, Laura Helena; SANTANA, Geilson Lima; VIANA, Maria Carmen; WANG, Yuan-PangBackground: Childhood adversities (ECA) are deleterious experiences that can occur during individuals' development, which has been associated with several negative health outcomes. Aim: Analyze the effect of ECA on the onset of DSM-IV disorders throughout life. Method: The Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) was used in a stratified, multistage area probability sample of 5037 individuals aged 18 or more to assess the presence of childhood adversities, 20 psychiatric disorders and their ages of onset. Discrete-time survival models were performed to estimate the odds of disorder onset. Data are from the Sao Paulo Megacity Mental Health Survey, the Brazilian branch of the World Mental Health Survey Initiative. Findings: 53.6% of the sample experienced at least one ECA, and parental death (16.1%) and physical abuse (16%) were the most reported occurrences. Parental mental illness (OR = 1.99 to 2.27) and family violence (OR = 1.55 to 1.99) were the adversities most consistently associated with psychopathology across all age groups, while economic adversities (OR = 2.71 to 3.30) and parent criminality (OR = 1.72 to 1.77) were associated with psychopathology in individuals whose onset of disorder occurred from age 13 years on. Parental mental disorders and economic adversities were the strongest and most consistent predictors of all four classes of psychopathologies examined in multivariate models controlled for the clustering of adversities. Physical abuse was associated with externalizing disorders, while sexual abuse with internalizing disorders. Interpretation: Childhood adversities were consistently associated with mental disorders. Economic adversities and parent mental disorders were predictive of psychopathology even if controlled for type (additive) and type and number of adversities (interactive models). Parental mental disorder and family violence were the main predictors of psychopathology onset across all age groups. Parental mental disorder was the only adversity that predicted all classes of disorders investigated.
