“…A teoria da "porta de entrada" é contestada por outros autores que entendem o desencadeamento do consumo de múltiplas substâncias como a ocorrência de uma síndrome comum, na qual os adolescentes, além do uso de drogas, teriam também maior predisposição a relações sexuais precoces, ter vários parceiros, envolver-se em brigas, portar armas, deixar a escola e desafi ar os pais (Farrell et al, 1992).…”

A incidência e a prevalência de doenças mentais são maiores nos fumantes do que no restante da população. O tratamento da dependência da nicotina nestes pacientes é difícil. Este estudo tem por objetivo promover uma revisão da associação entre o tabagismo e as doenças psiquiátricas. Método: Foi realizada uma revisão seletiva da literatura sobre o tema. Os autores apresentam artigos sobre a associação entre tabagismo e depressão, pânico, esquizofrenia, transtorno de défi cit de atenção e hiperatividade (TDAH), doença de Alzheimer e abuso de substâncias. Resultados: O tabagismo tem íntima relação com outros transtornos psiquiátricas, especialmente com depressão, esquizofrenia, TDAH e abuso de drogas. Fumar é associado a um maior risco de crises de pânico e são necessários novos estudos de coorte para verifi car a hipótese de uma relação inversa entre o consumo de nicotina e desenvolvimento de doença de Alzheimer. Conclusão: Há crescente evidência da relação entre o tabagismo e comorbidades psiquiátricas. Outros estudos da associação entre comorbidades psiquiátricas e tabagismo são necessários para melhor compreensão desta relação complexa.Palavras-chave: Dependência da nicotina, tabagismo, comorbidade psiquiátrica. AbstractSmokers have a higher incidence and prevalence of mental illness than the general population. Smoking cessation treatment in this group of patients is diffi cult. This study aims to provide a review of the association between smoking and psychiatric disorders. Method: A selective review of the relevant clinical literature was conducted. The authors present a review of articles about smoking and depression, panic disorder, schizophrenia, attentiondefi cit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Alzheimer´s disease and substance abuse. Results: Psychiatric comorbidity is common in smokers, especially depression, schizophrenia, ADHD and drug abuse. Smoking is associated with greater risk of panic attacks, and cohort studies are necessary to investigate the possibility of an inverse relationship between nicotine intake and incidence of Alzheimer´s disease. Conclusion: There is increasing evidence of high rates of psychiatric comorbidity in smokers. Further studies of the association between smoking and psychiatric comorbidity are necessary to understand this complex relationship.

“…For example, the influences of substance use, peers, and self-regulation on adolescent sexual behavior vary by gender. [15][16][17] Studies of gender differences in risk processes among adolescents, however, yield inconsistent findings and provide limited guidance for the development of programming for young adults, whose life situations differ from those of adolescents.…”

Risk and Protective Factors for Unprotected Intercourse among Rural African American Young Adults

et al. 2010

SYNOPSISObjectives. Despite increasing risk for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), few data are available concerning the factors associated with risky sexual behavior among African American young adults who do not attend college. Additionally, the possibility that different risk mechanisms affect men and women remains understudied. This article reports on the risk and protective factors associated with unprotected intercourse and gender differences in these factors' influence among this group. Predictors were derived from ecological and self-regulatory theories of risk behavior.Methods. African Americans aged 18-21 years were recruited via respondentdriven sampling (RDS) from seven contiguous rural counties. Risk and protective factors for unprotected intercourse were analyzed for 214 of 292 participants who reported sexual intercourse during the past three months.Results. Among sexually active participants, 62.6% used condoms inconsistently. The influence of leaving the parental home, perceived discrimination, risk-taking peers, family relationships, risk-taking propensity, and binge drinking on unprotected intercourse were moderated by gender. Positive attitudes toward condom use were associated with less unprotected intercourse controlling for the influence of risk variables for both men and women.Conclusions. Men and women have unique STI prevention needs. Additional research addressing these needs is necessary, particularly for rural African American men.

Objectives-We examined the contribution of perceived racial/ethnic discrimination to disparities in problem behaviors among pre-adolescent Black, Latino, and White youth.Methods-We used cross-sectional data from Healthy Passages, a three-community study of 5,119 fifth-graders and their parents. Multivariate regressions were used to examine the relationships of perceived racial/ethnic discrimination and race/ethnicity to problem behaviors Contributor Statement: LM Bogart was responsible for conceptualization of the research questions and interpretation of findings, and led the writing the article. MN Elliott contributed to the conceptualization of the research questions and writing of the article, and led the design of the analysis plan. DE Kanouse contributed to the conceptualization of the overall study and interpretation of findings, and reviewed the article. DJ Klein contributed to the conception of the analysis plan, conducted the data analyses, helped to interpret the results, and contributed to the writing of the article. SL Davies, PM Cuccaro, SW Banspach, and MF Peskin contributed to the interpretation of findings and reviewed the article. MA Schuster led the conceptualization of the overall study, contributed to interpretation of findings, and reviewed the article.Human Participant Protection: Institutional review boards at each study site and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention approved this study. (physical and non-physical aggression, retaliatory behaviors, and delinquency). We used values from these regressions to calculate the percentage of disparities in problem behaviors associated with the discrimination effect. HHS Public AccessAuthor manuscript Am J Public Health. Author manuscript; available in PMC 2014 June 01.Results-In multivariate models, perceived discrimination was associated with greater problem behaviors among Black and Latino youth. Compared to Whites, Blacks were significantly more likely to report problem behaviors, whereas Latinos were significantly less likely (a "reverse disparity"). When Blacks' and Latinos' discrimination experiences were set to zero, the adjusted disparity between Blacks and Whites was reduced by an estimated one-third to two-thirds; the reverse adjusted disparity favoring Latinos widened by about one-fifth to one-half. Conclusions-Resultssuggest that the elimination of discrimination could lead to considerable reductions in mental health issues, including problem behaviors, among Black and Latino youth.
