ABSTRACT

Este estudo teve por objetivo identificar a prevalência de Transtornos Mentais Comuns (TMC) em servidores públicos da Justiça Estadual e verificar a existência de associações entre variáveis sociodemográficas e estressores ocupacionais entre homens e mulheres. A amostra aleatória constituiu-se de 541 servidores públicos, 354 mulheres e 187 homens, pertencentes a uma instituição do Poder Judiciário do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, em 2011.

Os resultados evidenciaram que as mulheres apresentam maior prevalência de TMC. Na relação entre TMC e variáveissociodemográficas e estressores ocupacionais, de acordo com o sexo,verifica-se relação com o tempo de trabalho e com os estressores cargahorária, diversidade, complexidade do trabalho e relação com chefia, colegase ambiente social. Os dados foram discutidos a partir da compreensão sobre o mercado de trabalho contemporâneo e sua interface com as relações de gênero. Os resultados apontam a necessidade de intervenções diferenciadas nos grupos pesquisados. (AU)


This study aimed at investigating the prevalence of common mental disorders (CMD) in public servants of the State Court, as well as to verify the associations between sociodemographic variables and occupational stressorsamong men and women. The random sample was composed by 541 publicservants, 354 women and 187 men, working in an institution of the Judiciary in Rio Grande do Sul, in 2011. The adopted instruments were the SelfReporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20), to evaluate common mental disordersand a questionnaire composed by items containing sociodemographic, workand occupational stressors data. Results showed that women present a higher prevalence of CMD. Regarding the relationship between sociodemographic variables and occupational stressors, according to sex, there is a relation with both working time and the following stressors: workload, work diversity, work complexity, and the relationship with bosses, colleagues, and social environment. The data were discussed from the understanding of contemporary work market, and its interface with gender relations. The results point to the need of distinct interventions with the researched groups. (AU)

ABSTRACT

O presente estudo buscou identificar a prevalência de afastamentos por Transtornos Mentais e do Comportamento relacionados ao trabalho, bem como avaliar a associação entre variáveis sociodemográficas, laborais e tipo de transtorno com a quantidade de licenças e dias de afastamento em 219 servidores públicos judiciários, no ano de 2009. Os dados foram analisados por meio de estatística descritiva e inferencial, utilizandose a prova t de student, ANOVA, Mann-Whitney e Kruskal-Wallis. Resultados evidenciaram maior prevalência de transtornos do humor. Os servidores que trabalhavam na 1ª Instância, na cidade de Porto Alegre e região metropolitana, que se afastaram por uso de substância psicoativa e transtornos de humor apresentaram maior número de dias de afastamento. Os mesmos resultados foram encontrados com relação às licenças médicas, com exceção da cidade ou região de trabalho do servidor.(AU)


This study tried to identify the prevalence of work absence due to Mental and Behavioral Disorders, as well as to evaluate the correlation between type of disorder, socio-demographic and work-related variables and the quantity and duration of absence among 219 court employees in 2009. Data were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics using the Student’s t-test, ANOVA, Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis. The results revealed a higher prevalence of Mood Disorders. Judiciary workers from the First Instance Court in Porto Alegre and metropolitan area with work absence due to the use of psychoactive substances and mood disorders presented a higher number of days off . The same results were found for sickness absence, with the exception of the city or region in which the servant worked.(AU)

ABSTRACT

A higher risk of suicidal attempt after subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD) has been consistently reported. We retrospectively analyzed 3 PD patients with suicide attempts after STN-DBS. All patients had normal pre- and immediate postoperative psychopathological and cognitive evaluations, with STN-DBS yielding a good motor benefit. Levodopa medication was markedly reduced. Albeit there was a significant reduction in dopaminergic medication, there was also a considerable time lag to suicide attempt. Impulsive behavior could have played a higher role, going unnoticed in punctual psychopathological examinations. STN-DBS patients need a closer postoperative psychiatric and behavioral follow-up.

ABSTRACT

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD), although less common than Alzheimer's, constitutes a significant percentage of the degenerative dementias, making up 8 to 17% of patients who die with dementia before the age of 70. Several clinical presentations have been described for many authors, which are included in classical behaviour disorder of frontal lobe dementia and in language alterations of progressive aphasias. Classification and diagnosis criteria's of FTP are sometime controversial in literature. So, the authors give an overview of principal's aspects in this area, with focus on clinical, imagiological, patghological and genetic perspective. Furthermore, taken in account this revision was also made a characterization of the patients followed in Dementia Outpatient Clinical Care of our hospital. In these patient characteristics review the follow parameters were analysed: FDT clinical diagnosis; demographics, clinical, imagiological, neuropsychological aspects; and disease evolution. An retrospective study that allowed correlation between some aspects, namely clinical presentation with imagiological and neuropsychological findings. With this revision work, the authors pretend to alert for the relevance of FTD diagnosis, probably misdiagnosticated.

ABSTRACT

Parkinson's disease is a progressive degenerative disease of the central nervous system frequently becoming motor disabling. Deep brain stimulation is one more therapeutic option. The authors describe the different steps of this therapeutic procedure with detail on imaging protocol to the precise and exact targeting of subthalamic nucleus. MR and CT imaging on stereotactic conditions are the imaging support to the determination of the anatomic target allowing also the choose of trajectory for the surgical procedure. Neurophysiologic exploration and clinical evaluation during the surgery give us the functional target. Deep brain stimulation has been revealing as a safe and effective therapy on some cases of Parkinson's disease with a significant improvement on quality of life of those patients. The brain imaging is a fundamental tool on target determination.
