“…As mentioned, having depression is associated with a decrease in leisure physical activities, and our study has demonstrated that experiencing a recent crisis significantly interferes with the engagement in these activities ( p < 0.001). This could be attributed to the exacerbation of depressive symptoms, such as lack of motivation and inability to engage in activities, among others, as also mentioned by Nazar et al (2021), who related depressive symptoms to poorer self-care habits. Additionally, Pérez Pedrogo and Martínez Taboas (2016) suggested that experiencing depression can hinder a person’s exercise engagement.…”

Purpose This paper aims to study the influence of leisure-time physical activity on depression crises and the difficulty in performing light household tasks. Design/methodology/approach A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the 2020 European Health Survey in Spain. A total of 1,076 individuals diagnosed with depression were selected. ANOVA, chi-square, Fisher’s exact test and Mann–Whitney U test were applied, and a simple moderation analysis was conducted using the SPSS PROCESS 4.0 macro. Findings Women had higher percentages of some or much difficulty in performing domestic activities (p = 0.007). Differences were found between experiencing a crisis in the past 12 months versus not having one (p < 0.001): less physical activity was performed, perceived health was worse and difficulty in performing domestic activities increased. The moderation analysis confirmed the moderating effect of physical activity on the relationship between experiencing a crisis and having difficulty with domestic activities (p = 0.017). Research limitations/implications The usual limitation of descriptive cross-sectional studies, which cannot establish causal relationships, must be added to low sample sizes in some categories. Practical implications The analysis with gender differentiation, promoting gender-specific adapted practices, considering age and personal circumstances of the patient, appropriate exercise prescription, as well as its evaluation and follow-up, are areas where specialist nurses need to delve deeper to enhance the quality of care. Originality/value Leisure-time physical activity moderates the relationship between experiencing a crisis and having difficulty with light household tasks: those who engage in occasional physical activity have less difficulty compared to those who do not engage in it.

“…According to previous research, the gender gap in depression is associated with both the distribution of statuses and roles for men and women, with an unequal exposure to social stressors and to cumulative advantages and disadvantages during the life course, which might increase gender inequalities in depression at old age (Bracke et al, 2020). Previous studies about depression among the Chilean population have reported a considerable gender gap in the prevalence of depression from the 1990s to date (Araya et al, 2001;Vicente et al, 2002;Markkula et al, 2017;Aravena et al, 2020;Nazar et al, 2021;Moreno et al, 2022a). Also, according to the estimates of the World Health Organization, depression is the main cause of years lost to disability and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for women in Chile, but it is not among the top 10 causes of DALYs for men (World Health Organization, 2021).…”

The aim of the study was to analyze gender differences in life expectancy free of depressive symptoms among the adult population in Chile between 2003 and 2016. The Sullivan method was used to estimate the total and marginal life expectancy, based on prevalence data from the National Health Survey (2003, 2010 and 2016), and abridged life tables for the Chilean population. There was a compression of morbidity among middle-aged men during the first period and among younger and older women during the last one. Men at all ages could expect to live a higher proportion of their lives without depressive symptoms during the whole period. The gender gap in the proportion of life expectancy free of depressive symptoms reached 10 percent points or more, considering almost all ages and periods. Unemployment and lower education increased the probability of depressive symptoms, and these effects were more marked among women. Public policies should have a gender-sensitive approach to address the gap in depression and the disadvantage experienced by women in life expectancy free of depressive symptoms, considering those dimensions that intersect with gender, such as access to education, employment or income. Impact statementDepression is the most frequent mental health problem. The international literature consistently reports a gender gap in depression. Also, an association between this gap and gender inequalities is supported by previous evidence. This study adds to the previous knowledge by examining if the advantage in life expectancy experienced by women compensates the higher prevalence of depressive symptoms across the life span through the assessment of gender differences in life expectancy free of depressive symptoms in 2003, 2010 and 2016 in Chile. Our findings showed a persistent gender gap, with women expecting to live 10 percent points or more of their remaining life with depressive symptoms, compared to men, at all ages and years considered. We analyzed the interaction of gender with other social dimensions that could exacerbate gender differences, and we observed that lower level of education and unemployment increased the probability of depressive symptoms among men and women, but the effect was larger and more persistent among women. The results of our research support the importance of including a gender approach in public policies aimed at reducing inequalities among the population in Chile, considering the intersection of gender and other social dimensions that amplify disadvantages among certain groups of the population. With respect to mental health care, efforts have been made in Chile to improve access, quality, opportunity and financial protection to health-care users via the Regime of Explicit Health Guarantees (GES program), which included depression in 2006. The guidelines of this program should be updated, considering gender perspective and tailored interventions, to improve not only the access of certain groups but also the relevance and effectiveness of treatments.

“…A su vez, el dolor crónico se describe como un dolor que persiste por sobre los tres meses, esta cifra constituye un periodo de tiempo importante en la vida de una persona, por lo cual resulta lógico pensar que este dolor arrastrará consigo consecuencias negativas tanto en la situación económica como en la vida diaria de quien lo padece [1]. En lo que respecta a salud mental, una de las principales enfermedades que puede acarrear consigo este dolor, acompañado de los efectos mencionados sobre la economía del paciente y el curso de su vida, es la depresión [3]. De acuerdo a la última Encuesta Nacional de Salud (ENS) realizada en Chile entre los años 2016 y 2017, la prevalencia de esta patología en la población nacional mayor a 18 años es de 6,2%, mientras que la sospecha de depresión prevalece en un 15,8%.…”
