This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le suicide représente un défi majeur de santé publique. Les études retrouvent que 90% des suicidés présentent des troubles mentaux. Les patients souffrant de schizophrénie représente un groupe particulièrement exposé au risque de suicide ; il s'agit de la première cause de mortalité dans cette population. L'étude des facteurs de risque suicidaires apparaît indispensable aux stratégies de prise en charge.Au sein de ces facteurs de risques dans la schizophrénie, où s'associent des déficits cognitifs généraux et spécifiques, nous nous somme intéressés aux facteurs cognitifs. Quelques études, peu nombreuses, ont porté sur l'étude des facteurs neurocognitifs en lien avec le suicide dans cette pathologie et ne permettent pas d'apporter de réponses claires. Dans le champ cognitif, il existe un autre domaine, celui de la cognition sociale qui comprend quatre dimensions : la théorie de l'esprit, la perception et le traitement des émotions, la perception sociale et le style d'attribution. La théorie de l'esprit se définit comme la capacité à attribuer des états mentaux à autrui. Dans la schizophrénie on retrouve une altération de la cognition sociale, faisant l'objet de nombreuses études ; et cette altération est responsable d'un retentissement important sur le fonctionnement social de ces patients. Nous nous sommes interrogés dans ce travail sur la possibilité d'un lien entre les déficits en cognition sociale et le suicide dans la schizophrénie. La littérature retrouve une seule étude sur le sujet mettant en lien un déficit en théorie de l'esprit de second ordre et le risque suicidaire. Ce travail consiste en une étude rétrospective comparant deux groupes de patients schizophrènes stabilisés, suicidants et non-suicidants, sur des épreuves évaluant la théorie de l'esprit (TOM-15: épreuve de fausses croyances, Reading the Mind in the Eyes, épreuve de sous-entendus de Corcoran) Les résultats en analyse univariée montrent une différence significative sur deux épreuves sur trois, dans le sens d'une altération plus importante de la théorie de l'esprit chez les patients suicidants. L'analyse multivariée, après ajustement des variables, retrouve une différence significative sur une épreuve (TOM-15). Malgré les limites de cette étude, qui se veut préliminaire, ces résultats constituent un argument en faveur de notre hypothèse selon laquelle l'altération de la cognition sociale serait un facteur de risque suicidaire dans la schizophrénie. Il semble intéressant de poursuivre la réalisation d'autres études sur le sujet afin de préciser notamment quelles pourraient être les implications pratiques en clinique : réalisation de bilan cognitif, prise en charge par des stratégies de remédiation par exemple.

Book excerpt: Le suicide est un problème majeur de santé publique. On compte en France annuellement 11 000 décès par suicide et 200 000 tentatives de suicide.Ce manuel fait le point des connaissances sur cette "maladie" qui, lorsqu'elle n'est pas létale, est lourde de conséquences physiques et psychologiques pour le suicidant et son entourage.Dans une première partie les données cliniques du phénomène sont exposées : épidémiologie, sociologie du suicide, définition des conduites suicidaires. Avec les axes de la recherche,la deuxième partie présente les travaux les plus actuels sur la vulnérabilité suicidaire : les avancées des neurosciences dans le domaine de la biologie ou de la génétique, l'impact des événements de vie et la modélisation du processus suicidaire.Les aspects stratégiques présentés dans la troisième partie orientent le thérapeute dans sa démarche clinique : évaluation du risque suicidaire, risque en fonction des pathologies (patients psychiatriques ou souffrant d'affections somatiques), du terrain (hommes, femmes, jeunes et adolescents, personnes âgées), de situation de vie particulières (immigration, milieu carcéral), etc., prévention.La quatrième partie, consacrée aux aspects thérapeutiques, expose la problématique de la prise en charge des suicidants : la difficulté, l'urgence, le suivi. L'organisation et les structures de soins actuelles intègrent ces éléments incontournables afin d'intervenir efficacement auprès des personnes. La prise en charge passe également par les traitements médicamenteux, la psychothérapie... sans oublier le rôle de la société dans la prévention du suicide.L'ouvrage est destiné aux psychiatres, psychanalystes, psychologues et à tous les personnels soignants confrontés au problème de la prise en charge du suicide et de la tentative de suicide. Le professeur Philippe Courtet, chef du service de psychologie médicale et psychiatrie du CHRU de Montpellier, s'est entouré de plus de quatre-vingts rédacteurs, spécialistes de tout premier plan dans le domaine de la suicidologie. 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With recent studies using genetic, epigenetic, and other molecular and neurochemical approaches, a new era has begun in understanding pathophysiology of suicide. Emerging evidence suggests that neurobiological factors are not only critical in providing potential risk factors but also provide a promising approach to develop more effective treatment and prevention strategies. The Neurobiological Basis of Suicide discusses the most recent findings in suicide neurobiology. Psychological, psychosocial, and cultural factors are important in determining the risk factors for suicide; however, they offer weak prediction and can be of little clinical use. Interestingly, cognitive characteristics are different among depressed suicidal and depressed nonsuicidal subjects, and could be involved in the development of suicidal behavior. The characterization of the neurobiological basis of suicide is in delineating the risk factors associated with suicide. The Neurobiological Basis of Suicide focuses on how and why these neurobiological factors are crucial in the pathogenic mechanisms of suicidal behavior and how these findings can be transformed into potential therapeutic applications.

This book was released on 2014-05-16 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we understand mental health problems in their social context? A former BMA Medical Book of the Year award winner, this book provides a sociological analysis of major areas of mental health and illness. The book considers contemporary and historical aspects of sociology, social psychiatry, policy and therapeutic law to help students develop an in-depth and critical approach to this complex subject.New developments for the fifth edition include: Brand new chapter on prisons, criminal justice and mental health Expanded coverage of stigma, class and social networks Updated material on the Mental Capacity Act, Mental Health Act and the Deprivation of Liberty A classic in its field, this well established textbook offers a rich and well-crafted overview of mental health and illness unrivalled by competitors and is essential reading for students and professionals studying a range of medical sociology and health-related courses. It is also highly suitable for trainee mental health workers in the fields of social work, nursing, clinical psychology and psychiatry. "Rogers and Pilgrim go from strength to strength! This fifth edition of their classic text is not only a sociology but also a psychology, a philosophy, a history and a polity. It combines rigorous scholarship with radical argument to produce incisive perspectives on the major contemporary questions concerning mental health and illness. The authors admirably balance judicious presentation of the range of available understandings with clear articulation of their own positions on key issues. This book is essential reading for everyone involved in mental health work." Christopher Dowrick, Professor of Primary Medical Care, University of Liverpool, UK "Pilgrim and Rogers have for the last twenty years given us the key text in the sociology of mental health and illness. Each edition has captured the multi-layered and ever changing landscape of theory and practice around psychiatry and mental health, providing an essential tool for teachers and researchers, and much loved by students for the dexterity in combining scope and accessibility. This latest volume, with its focus on community mental health, user movements criminal justice and the need for inter-agency working, alongside the more classical sociological critiques around social theories and social inequalities, demonstrates more than ever that sociological perspectives are crucial in the understanding and explanation of mental and emotional healthcare and practice, hence its audience extends across the related disciplines to everyone who is involved in this highly controversial and socially relevant arena." Gillian Bendelow, School of Law Politics and Sociology, University of Sussex, UK "From the classic bedrock studies to contemporary sociological perspectives on the current controversy over which scientific organizations will define diagnosis, Rogers and Pilgrim provide a comprehensive, readable and elegant overview of how social factors shape the onset and response to mental health and mental illness. Their sociological vision embraces historical, professional and socio-cultural context and processes as they shape the lives of those in the community and those who provide care; the organizations mandated to deliver services and those that have ended up becoming unsuitable substitutes; and the successful and unsuccessful efforts to improve the lives through science, challenge and law." Bernice Pescosolido, Distinguished Professor of Sociology, Indiana University, USA

Download or read book The Challenge of Crime in a Free Society written by United States. President's Commission on Law Enforcement and Administration of Justice and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report of the President's Commission on Law Enforcement and Administration of Justice -- established by President Lyndon Johnson on July 23, 1965 -- addresses the causes of crime and delinquency and recommends how to prevent crime and delinquency and improve law enforcement and the administration of criminal justice. In developing its findings and recommendations, the Commission held three national conferences, conducted five national surveys, held hundreds of meetings, and interviewed tens of thousands of individuals. Separate chapters of this report discuss crime in America, juvenile delinquency, the police, the courts, corrections, organized crime, narcotics and drug abuse, drunkenness offenses, gun control, science and technology, and research as an instrument for reform. Significant data were generated by the Commission's National Survey of Criminal Victims, the first of its kind conducted on such a scope. The survey found that not only do Americans experience far more crime than they report to the police, but they talk about crime and the reports of crime engender such fear among citizens that the basic quality of life of many Americans has eroded. The core conclusion of the Commission, however, is that a significant reduction in crime can be achieved if the Commission's recommendations (some 200) are implemented. The recommendations call for a cooperative attack on crime by the Federal Government, the States, the counties, the cities, civic organizations, religious institutions, business groups, and individual citizens. They propose basic changes in the operations of police, schools, prosecutors, employment agencies, defenders, social workers, prisons, housing authorities, and probation and parole officers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban slum dwellers—especially in emerging-economy countries—are often poor, live in squalor, and suffer unnecessarily from disease, disability, premature death, and reduced life expectancy. Yet living in a city can and should be healthy. Slum Health exposes how and why slums can be unhealthy; reveals that not all slums are equal in terms of the hazards and health issues faced by residents; and suggests how slum dwellers, scientists, and social movements can come together to make slum life safer, more just, and healthier. Editors Jason Corburn and Lee Riley argue that valuing both new biologic and “street” science—professional and lay knowledge—is crucial for improving the well-being of the millions of urban poor living in slums.

Download or read book What Is the Evidence on the Role of the Arts in Improving Health and Well Being written by Daisy Fancourt and published by . This book was released on 2019-06 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, there has been a major increase in research into the effects of the arts on health and well-being, alongside developments in practice and policy activities in different countries across the WHO European Region and further afield. This report synthesizes the global evidence on the role of the arts in improving health and well-being, with a specific focus on the WHO European Region. Results from over 3000 studies identified a major role for the arts in the prevention of ill health, promotion of health, and management and treatment of illness across the lifespan. The reviewed evidence included study designs such as uncontrolled pilot studies, case studies, small-scale cross-sectional surveys, nationally representative longitudinal cohort studies, community-wide ethnographies and randomized controlled trials from diverse disciplines. The beneficial impact of the arts could be furthered through acknowledging and acting on the growing evidence base; promoting arts engagement at the individual, local and national levels; and supporting cross-sectoral collaboration.
