Parallels between research in mental health in Brazil and in the field of Global Mental Health: an integrative literature review.

Abstract:

:Global Mental Health is a field of teaching, research, and practice whose goal is to improve access to mental health and reduce inequalities in mental health outcomes for all people worldwide, especially proposing action in low- and middle-income countries like Brazil. Given this global scenario and Brazil's progress in health and psychiatric reforms, it is important to investigate the current status of the Brazilian mental health literature and its relationship to Global Mental Health, describing how Brazilian research deals with key topics in the Global Mental Health field. The authors performed an integrative literature review using a qualitative and descriptive approach. The article search was performed for the years 2014 and 2015 in Portuguese and English, using the terms "mental health" and "Brazil", combined with key words corresponding to the principal themes addressed by authors in Global Mental Health. The search yielded 88 articles, which were analyzed according to authorship, periodicals and regions, and the analytical categories of access, primary care, community mental health services, social determinants of health, human rights, and equity. Brazil's mental health research revealed a rich and diverse body of studies, showing parallels with the literature on global mental health, but with limited systematization. Although the review revealed efforts to generate knowledge in this field within Brazil, some barriers may be limiting Brazil's participation in the international debate on Global Mental Health. :A Saúde Mental Global é um campo de ensino, pesquisa e prática, cuja prioridade é melhorar o acesso e assegurar a equidade no cuidado em saúde mental para todas as pessoas do mundo, propondo ações especialmente em países de média e baixa renda, como o Brasil. Diante desse panorama mundial e considerando o avanço local dos processos das reformas sanitária e psiquiátrica, torna-se importante investigar o estado atual da literatura brasileira e sua relação com a Saúde Mental Global, descrevendo como a produção nacional aborda assuntos enfatizados nesse campo. Assim, adotando abordagem qualitativa e perspectiva descritiva, foi realizada revisão integrativa da literatura do período de 2014-2015, por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica em português e inglês, utilizando os termos saúde mental e Brasil combinados a palavras-chave correspondentes aos principais tópicos discutidos por autores da Saúde Mental Global. Foram encontrados 88 artigos apreciados segundo sua autoria, periódicos e regiões de publicação, metodologia e de acordo com as categorias de análise e acesso; atenção primária; atenção psicossocial; determinantes sociais da saúde; direitos humanos; e equidade. Constatou-se haver na produção científica nacional um conjunto de estudos muito rico e diversificado com paralelos com a literatura da Saúde Mental Global, mas apresenta um baixo índice de sistematização. Esses achados revelam, portanto, que, apesar dos esforços para a geração de conhecimento local, existem barreiras que, possivelmente, comprometem a participação brasileira no debate internacional. :La Salud Mental Global es un campo de enseñanza, investigación y práctica, cuya prioridad es mejorar el acceso y asegurar la equidad en el cuidado en salud mental para todas las personas del mundo, proponiendo acciones especialmente en países de renta media y baja, como Brasil. Ante el actual panorama mundial, y considerando el avance local de los procesos de reforma sanitaria y psiquiátrica, es importante investigar el estado actual de la literatura brasileña y su relación con la Salud Mental Global, describiendo de qué forma la producción nacional aborda asuntos centrados en este campo. De este modo, adoptando un enfoque cualitativo y una perspectiva descriptiva, se realizó una revisión integradora de la literatura existente durante el período de 2014-2015, mediante una investigación bibliográfica en portugués e inglés, utilizando los términos salud mental y Brasil, combinados con palabras-clave correspondientes a los principales temas discutidos por parte de autores sobre Salud Mental Global. Se encontraron 88 artículos evaluados según su autoría, periódicos, regiones de publicación y metodología, de acuerdo con las categorías de análisis y acceso: atención primaria, atención psicosocial, determinantes sociales de la salud, derechos humanos y equidad. Se constató que existe en la producción científica nacional un conjunto de estudios muy rico y diversificado, con paralelismos con la literatura de la Salud Mental Global, pero que presenta un bajo índice de sistematización. Estos hallazgos revelan, por tanto, que, a pesar de los esfuerzos para la generación de conocimiento local, existen barreras que, posiblemente, comprometen la participación brasileña en el debate internacional sobre esta cuestión.
