Datos sostenidos con trabajos científicos desactualizados, falta de existencia y/o disponibilidad de estadísticas de ingresos y egresos por salud mental a nivel nacional y de la ciudad de Buenos Aires, falta de claridad de los psiquiatras en los medios, fueron algunas de las quejas recibidas ante un auditorio de profesionales preocupados por la estigmatización de la salud mental,
Periodistas cada vez mas formados, capaces de tomar cursos que les enseñen a leer publicaciones científicas adecuadamente, piden mejor comunicación en salud mental.
Estas son algunas brevísimas conclusiones de la jornada de ayer.MdelosALG

Menos extremismo de derecha en los países con fuertes medios públicos
The Guardian (8/08/16:
"Los países que tienen fuertes organismos públicos de radiodifusión populares financiados
tienen menos extremismo de derecha".
"Los países que tienen fuertes organismos públicos de radiodifusión populares financiados
tienen menos extremismo de derecha".
El informe (EBU) dice que "en los países donde la
financiación de los medios de comunicación de servicio público ... es más alta
tiende a haber más libertad de prensa" y donde tienen una mayor cuota de
mercado "también tiende a ser un mayor número de votantes".

Las instituciones de puertas cerradas no previenen el suicidio dice un estudio reciente en Suiza
Interesante reciente artículo TheLancet: Un estudio observacional de 15 años concluye que el riesgo de suicidio y fugas en los hospitales psiquiátricos de puertas abiertas no son mayores que en los de puertas cerradas. Los suicidios son más frecuentes en estos últimos y las fugas son con retorno en los abiertos.

Children Pay the Highest Price in Refugee Crisis
The world is witness to a rapid increase in the
number of people forced to flee from wars, conflict, and persecution in
countries such as Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan. It is estimated that
approximately half of the 19.5 million registered refugees at a global level
are children and youth. They are the most vulnerable victims of these
conflicts.
The case of Syria is paradigmatic. Three
years of conflict have turned Syria into one of the most dangerous places to be
a child, according to UNICEF. Out of a population of 21.9 million, more than 9
million are under 18. It is estimated that 5.5 million children are affected by
the conflict, a number that is almost double from the year before. More than
4.29 million children inside Syria are poor, displaced or caught in the line of
fire.
International aid organizations have been
doing a remarkable job helping the population of countries affected by wars.
However, only in Syria, one million children are living in areas that aid
workers cannot reach regularly, thus depriving them of vital support. More than
a third of Syrian families are no longer living in their own homes or
communities, seriously affecting their health and quality of life.
As a result of the fall in immunization
rates—from 99 percent before the war to less than 50 percent now—polio has
reemerged in Syria, after a 14-year absence. At the same time, doctors report
an increase in the number and severity of cases of measles, pneumonia, and
diarrhea. In response to the polio outbreak, UNICEF, the World Health
Organization (WHO), and health ministries in the region have launched the
largest immunization campaign in the region’s history, targeting more than 25
million children.
The capacity of the country’s health care
system to provide assistance to the population has been seriously affected.
Many doctors and health personnel have either been killed or have left the
country. 60 percent of the public hospitals have been damaged or are out of
service.
Many times, militants bomb health care
facilities, wait for first-responders and emergency crews to come in and then
strike again, thus maximizing the impact of their attacks. On April 27, 2016,
the Al Quds field hospital in Aleppo was hit by an airstrike. It killed 30
people, including 2 health workers, and injured 60 people, completely
destroying the facility.
Dr. Abdo El Ezz, an Aleppo physician says,
“The war in Syria has violated and destroyed anything called ‘agreements’ or
‘an agreement’ or ‘human rights’ or anything humanitarian… Hospitals are
looking for coffins because people are pouring in, some are completely burned
and soon die. We need to bury them… Some people wish to die so they can finally
rest and not live in constant terror and see constant destruction.”
An estimated
37,000 children have been born as refugees and over 83,000 Syrian pregnant
women are living as refugees in Lebanon and Jordan, placing a heavy burden on
those countries health and social systems. For example, Lebanon is planning for
600,000 schoolchildren this year—twice the number currently enrolled.
Syrian children refugees are at very high
risk for mental illness and have poor access to education. In the Za’atari
refugee camp in Jordan, for example, one third of all children displayed aggressive
and self-harm behaviors. According to Europol, Europe’s policy agency, more
than 10,000 thousand unaccompanied refugee and migrant children have
disappeared, raising fears they are being exploited and used for sex.
The Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
rate among Syrian refugee children is comparable to that observed among other
children who experienced war. A study by the Migration Policy Institute shows
that refugee children who are not formally educated are more likely to feel
marginalized and hopeless, making them probable targets for radicalization.
What is experienced by Syrian children is
also experienced by refugee children coming from other countries such as
Afghanistan and Iraq. Few people have expressed as poignantly as James Fenton
the tragic fate of these children. In his
poem “Children in Exile,” Fenton writes,
“What I am is not important,
whether I live or die –
It is the same for me, the same for you.
What we do is important. This is what I have learnt.
It is not what we are but what we do,
It is the same for me, the same for you.
What we do is important. This is what I have learnt.
It is not what we are but what we do,
Says a child in exile, one of a
family
Once happy in its size. Now there are four
Students of calamity, graduates of famine,
Those whom geography condemns to war…”

Students of calamity, graduates of famine,
