Elucidating the role of unemployment in complex social inequalities in mental health: An intersectional mediation analysis of the cross-sectional Spanish National Health Surveys
Women, migrants and those in manual occupations face barriers in the labor market and are more vulnerable to unemployment, which in turn may impact mental health and contributes to inequalities. Previous research has not considered the intertwinement of multiple inequalities. This study examined intersectional inequalities (intersecting gender, social class, and migration status) in poor mental health and the mediation role of unemployment in the…
La interseccionalidad: Factor clave para estudiar e intervenir sobre las desigualdades sociales en salud
The intersectional approach helps to understand how social health inequalities emerge from the interaction of multiple axes of vulnerability, such as gender, social class, ethnicity, age, or migration status, and how these intersect with institutional structures and public policies. Applying this perspective to the health field requires moving beyond fragmented views and adopting analytical and intervention strategies that acknowledge the complex…

Abordaje social de la muerte e influencia de la entrada en vigor de la Ley Orgánica de Regulación de la Eutanasia
La eutanasia, recientemente legalizada en España, suscita una serie de dilemas desde lo jurídico hasta lo ético y pone en disputa la forma en la que se ha de entender el final de la vida. Esta investigación se enmarca necesariamente en el marco de la asistencia clínica de profesionales cuyas emociones, sentimientos, valores y miedos, no siempre son compatibles con la muerte como elección. Así pues, el abordaje cualitativo, supone un enclave donde…

Is the diagnosis and treatment of depression gender-biased? Evidence from a population-based aging cohort in Sweden
A gender-bias was identified in the diagnosis and treatment of depression in older adults within the Swedish healthcare setting, which could imply that health services may be contributing to the medicalization of women's mental health. Gender-sensitive clinical and public health interventions are essential to reduce gender disparities in mental healthcare, also in old age
From vulnerability to agency: The management and medicalization of mental health in women and men
In many instances, the medical approach to mental health issues remains a top-down process where patients are expected to act as purely passive agents. Yet, it is vital to recognize the agency individuals display in the medicalization of mental distress, from experiencing emotional suffering to becoming mental health patients engaged in their treatment. This qualitative study aims to describe the various forms of agency that men and women deploy …

Gender Inequalities in Publications about Covid-19 in Spain: Authorship and Sex-Disaggregated Data
Gender inequalities in biomedical literature have been widely reported in authorship as well as the scarcity of results that are stratified by sex in the studies. We conducted a bibliometric review of articles on COVID-19 published in the main Spanish medical journals between April 2020 and May 2021. The purpose of this study was to analyse differences in authorship order and composition by sex and their evolution over time, as well as the freque…

Occupational health, frontline workers and Covid-19 lockdown: New gender-related inequalities

Which are the intermediate determinants of gender inequalities in mental health: A scoping review
BACKGROUND: Gender segmentation in the labour market and women's greater burden of domestic work and caregiving increase their risk of developing mental health problems, especially in vulnerable social groups.

El género como determinante de la salud mental y su medicalización. Informe Sespas 2020
La peor salud mental de las mujeres ha sido demostrada tanto en encuestas de salud como en estudios de base clínica. La hipótesis acerca de una mayor vulnerabilidad biológica de las mujeres es inconsistente, lo que haría que las condiciones de vida desiguales entre hombres y mujeres, junto con los modelos imperantes de masculinidad y feminidad hegemónicos, puedan estar explicando estas desigualdades de género en la salud mental. El artículo muest…

This was a cross-sectional study based on data from the European Health Survey relating to Spain. Gend…
Health Impact Assessments in Spain: Have They Been Effective
When assessing HIA effectiveness, it is important to take into account a broad perspective on the nature of impacts and those factors influencing direct and indirect effectiveness. In Spain, the institutional and sociopolitical context was less favorable to HIA effectiveness than process-related factors. In order to implement the Health in All Policies strategy, will be necessary to improve context-related factors, such as institutional facilitat…
Socio-Economic Inequalities in Life Expectancy and Health Expectancy at Age 50 and over in European Countries
Based on the demographic ageing, many European governments have modified the statutory retirement age. However, in general, life expectancy (LE) and health expectancy (HE) are not uniformly distributed, being both lower among the least advantaged groups. Thus, a systematic search and review of the literature has been conducted to identify socioeconomic inequalities in LE and HE at age 50 and over in European countries. Twenty-nine studies were in…

Propuestas de clase social neoweberiana y neomarxista a partir de la Clasificación Nacional de Ocupaciones 2011
En España, la nueva Clasificación Nacional de Ocupaciones (CNO-2011), que ha variado sustancialmente respecto a la del año 1994, requiere la adaptación de la clase social ocupacional para ser utilizada en estudios de desigualdades en salud. En este artículo se presentan dos propuestas para medir la clase social: la nueva clasificación de clase social ocupacional (CSO-SEE12), basada en la CNO-2011, desde un enfoque neoweberiano, y una propuesta de…
