Manías: un trastorno más común de lo que se piensa

El objetivo del presente trabajo es hacer una revisión bibliográfica de la literatura publicada sobre las manías. En tal sentido, se procedió a analizar diversas publicaciones resumiendo los aspectos más relevantes de este tema. Las manías son mucho más comunes y recién uno se percata de ellas cuando las padecen personas del entorno familiar, social o laboral. Entre las manías más frecuentes se puede mencionar las relacionadas a limpieza, salud, orden, seguridad física o psicológica y de acumulación de objetos. Las personas que sufren este trastorno no son conscientes que están enfermos por lo que buscan ni aceptan el tratamiento.

The aim of this study is to make a literature review of the published articles on manias. In this regard, we proceeded to analyze various publications summarizing the most relevant aspects of this issue. Manias are much more common and just one realizes it when we suffer or others have them. Among the most common manias, one can mention those related to cleanliness, health, order, physical or psychological accumulation of objects and security. People with this disorder are unaware that they are sick so they do not look for or accept the treatment.

Association between body image dissatisfaction and depressive symptoms in adolescents

Objective: To determine the association between body image dissatisfaction (BID) and depressive symptoms in adolescents from a school in Lima, Peru. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed through a census of 875 high-school students, aged 13 to 17 years, from a school in Lima. Participants completed a survey containing the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Data regarding demographics, alcohol and tobacco use, self-esteem, and family history of depression were also obtained. To identify associated factors, Poisson regression with robust variance was used. Prevalence ratios with 95% confidence intervals were calculated. Results: Of the 875 adolescents, 55.8% were male. The mean age was 14.161.5 years. Depressive symptoms were observed in 19.9% of participants. An association between BID and depressive symptoms was found. Alcohol and tobacco use were also associated with the outcome of interest. Conclusions: Teens who had BID were 3.7 times more likely to report depressive symptoms. Additionally, those who used tobacco or alcohol were 1.5 and 1.4 times more likely to have depressive symptoms, respectively. Further studies targeting other populations and using longitudinal designs are recommended.
