BACKGROUND: Mental illness or mental health problems during pregnancy in low- and middle-income countries are very high; the average prevalence reaches 15.6%. Subsequent research was conducted by Indian in the Jakarta and Bogor regions in the period January–June 2018 regarding the incidence of perinatal depression by 23.6% in the Bogor. AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the mental illness or mental health problems during pregnancy in low- and middle-income countries. METHODS: This research is qualitative research. This research was conducted in January–June 2019 in the Bogor independent practice midwife. Informants in the study came from the East Jakarta Health Office, Chair of the Indonesian Midwives Association, Head of the Health Center, Coordinating Midwives, Pregnant Women and husbands, and families of pregnant women. Data are analyzed by Regression Logistic. RESULTS: Construction model mental health of mothers during pregnancy in independent practice midwives is very important and needs attention. Pregnancy is still considered a physical change that needs to be intervened because it is easier to handle and easily detects it. Maternal examination during pregnancy is carried out by midwives, in the implementation of mental health checks during pregnancy for pregnant women, this role has not all been carried out optimally. CONCLUSION: This research suggests conducting socialization with midwives as well as across-related sectors to get political support in carrying out activities in health facilities and independent practice midwives.

Dementia is a cause of significant burden across countries and cultures. Many issues related to mental health problems among older people living in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have been highlighted in the literature. However, much of the work in LMICs examines these issues through Western international perspectives. The dearth of local contextually relevant investigations forces academics to rely on universal facts and concepts, discounting uniqueness of the context and cultures.

This chapter focuses on the current knowledge in public health for people with intellectual disability and recognizes the extent of health inequalities these individuals experience. The prevalence of intellectual disability worldwide is discussed with special emphasis on the prevalence of mental health problems. Also highlighted are the population health characteristics, including physical and mental health problems. The issue of barriers to accessibility and the possible reasons are discussed. There is a section on premature mortality of people with intellectual disability and measures to improve the health status for this marginalized population. Recent initiatives, including prevention strategies and health promotional aspects, are discussed and solutions suggested, including those for low-and-middle income countries (LAMICs)emphasized. Training aspects to improve quality of health care in LAMICs is highlighted with the recognition of limitations in creating a sustainable transformation of services unless they are backed by authorities.

Mental health in young people is a public health challenge worldwide, with around one-fifth of university students suffering from a 12-month mental disorder. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) of Southeastern Asia, resources for mental health are limited and counseling services are not regularly established at universities. This review aims to determine the prevalence of mental health problems among university students in 6 ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) countries (Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam) and to identify the determinants of mental health. A systematic database search (PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, PubPsych, and Scopus) for peer-reviewed, English language articles, published 2010-2020, reporting prevalence data based on standardized screening instruments resulted in 335 articles; 108 were eligible for full-text analysis, of which 34 could be included in the review. Median point prevalence was 29.4% for depression, 42.4% for anxiety, 16.4% for stress, and 13.9% for disordered eating. Current suicidality was present in 7% to 8% of students. There was a high rate of psychiatric comorbidity. Despite the high prevalence of mental health problems, the willingness to seek professional help was comparatively low. Implications for mental health promotion and prevention in university settings are discussed.

AbstractIntroductionThere are few data on the prevalence of mental health problems among adolescents living with HIV in low- and middle-income countries and the evidence on associations between mental health problems and viral load suppression is inconsistent. We assessed the prevalence of mental health problems among adolescents receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) at a large paediatric HIV clinic in South Africa and examined associations between mental health problems and viral load suppression.MethodsWe implemented routine mental health screening at Rahima Moosa Mother and Child Hospital in Johannesburg. Adolescents aged 10-19 years were offered screening for depression (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 [PHQ-9]), suicide (Adolescent Innovations Project [AIP]-handbook), anxiety (General Anxiety Disorder-7 [GAD-7]), trauma (Primary Care PTSD Screen for DSM-5 [PC-PTSD-5]), and substance use (CAGE Adapted to Include Drugs [CAGE-AID]) at each routine HIV care visits. We assessed screening outcomes between February 1, 2018, and January 1, 2020 and calculated odds ratios for associations between positive screening outcomes and unsuppressed viral load (>400 HIV-RNA copies/ml).ResultsOut of 1,203 adolescents who attended the clinic, 1,088 (90.4%) were screened at a median age of 13 years (IQR 10-15). In total, 97 (8.9%) screened positive: 48 (4.4%) for depression (PHQ-9 ≥ 10), 29 (2.8%) for suicidal concern, 24 (2.2%) for anxiety (GAD-7 ≥ 10), 38 (3.2%) for trauma (PC-PTSD-5 ≥ 3), and 18 (1.7%) for substance use (CAGE-AID ≥ 2). Positive screening for depression (aOR 2.39, 95% CI 1.02-5.62), trauma (aOR 3.18, 95% CI 1.11-9.07), substance use (aOR 7.13, 95% CI 1.60-31.86), or any mental health condition (aOR 2.17, 95% CI 1.17-4.02) were strongly associated with unsuppressed viral load.ConclusionsHIV-positive adolescents who are affected by mental health or substance use problems are a highly vulnerable population, who merit specific clinical attention. Strategies for screening and management of mental health and substance use problems in adolescents on ART in low- and middle-income countries need to be developed and evaluated.
