Abstract:

Psychic distress and the development of mental disorders in prisons are globally recognized public health issues. This study aimed to identify the prevalence of these symptoms and associated factors in 99 women over 18 years of age, in the provisional, closed and semi-open regimes in Juiz de Fora-MG. It is a cross-sectional study, of the census type, with data collected face to face through a semi-structured and multidimensional questionnaire. Outcomes were assessed using the Patient Health Questionannaire-4 (PHQ-4). For the association analysis, a theoretical model of determination was built with three hierarchical blocks. Crude prevalence ratios were estimated using the chi-square test and adjusted for each other within each block (p ≤ 0.20). For the final Poisson regression model with robust variance, p ≤ 0.05 was adopted. The prevalence of anxious and depressive symptoms was, respectively, 75.8% (95%CI 66.1% - 83.8%) and 65.7% (95%CI 55.4% - 74.9%). In the final model, anxious symptoms were associated with the presence of depressive symptoms. Depressive symptoms, on the other hand, were associated with the age group20 to 29 years and the presence of anxiety symptoms. There was a prevalence of the outcomes in more than half of the participants, with an emphasis on the interassociation between them.
