“…The Chinese (Yan-Fang 2002), the Cuban (Otero-Ojeda 2002) and the Latin American classification systems (Berganza et al 2002) are good examples of these efforts. While DSM system of the APA (2010), generated mainly as a "national system of a Western country" has been widely accepted in many different sociocultural contexts of the world, the ICD system of the WHO (WHO 1992) was re-adapted and revised according to the local needs of some countries.…”

The book series International Library of Ethics, Law and the New Medicine comprises volumes with an international and interdisciplinary focus. The aim of the Series is to publish books on foundational issues in (bio) ethics, law, international health care and medicine. The 28 volumes that have already appeared in this series address aspects of aging, mental health, AIDS, preventive medicine, bioethics and many other current topics. This Series was conceived against the background of increasing globalization and interdependency of the world's cultures and governments, with mutual influencing occurring throughout the world in all fields, most surely in health care and its delivery. By means of this Series we aim to contribute and cooperate to meet the challenge of our time: how to aim human technology to good human ends, how to deal with changed values in the areas of religion, society, culture and the self-definition of human persons, and how to formulate a new way of thinking, a new ethic. We welcome book proposals representing the broad interest of the interdisciplinary and international focus of the series. We especially welcome proposals that address aspects of 'new medicine', meaning advances in research and clinical health care, with an emphasis on those interventions and alterations that force us to re-examine foundational issues.More information about this series at

“…2,8,9 The guide was based on a study involving 572 psychiatrists to establish standardized diagnostic and clinical practices. The LAGPD describes the regional characteristics of the presentation of mental disorders and the main culture-bound syndromes in Latin America and the Caribbean, such as susto ("fright sickness"), ataque de nervios ("attack of nerves"), and mal de ojo…”

Resultados:Foram selecionadas e classificadas 163 publicações: 33 no Medline, 90 no EMBASE e 40 no LILACS. A percentagem das síndromes transculturais ("culture bound-syndrome") correspondeu a 9% no Medline, 12% no EMBASE e 2,5% no LILACS. Dos 15 estudos sobre síndromes transculturais, dois eram sobre "nervios e ataque de nervios", dois sobre "susto", quatro sobre a relação entre crenças religiosas, "feitiçaria", transe e apresentação dos transtornos mentais, um sobre proposta de uma nova categoria diagnóstica, três artigos teóricos e três sobre psicopatoplastia dos transtornos mentais. Conclusão: A escassez de estudos sobre síndromes transculturais pode ter ocorrido pela dificuldade em rastrear os estudos por problema de indexação das publicações, falta de interesse em publicar tais estudos em periódicos indexados e a dificuldade de acesso às publicações. Dentre os estudos identificados, não há uma evidência clara que aponte quais modificações são necessárias nas classificações diagnósticas atuais.

“…Subsequently, it was also important in the development of the GLADP (Latin American Guide for Psychiatric Diagnosis), which also started with CIE-9, and is presented as an attempt of APAL to adapt psychiatric diagnosis in Latin-American to International standards (Berganza, Mezzich, Otero-Ojeda, Villaseñ or-Bayardo, & Rojas Malpica, 2001;Berganza, Mezzich, & Jorge, 2002).…”

This paper shows how the community of Latin-American and Spanish psychiatry represents a solid platform for the so-called 'continental thought' to meet the analytical Anglo-Saxon thought. It reviews what both Latin America and the Spanish and Portuguese languages represent in the American continent; the relation between Spanish psychiatry and Spanish-speaking psychiatry in America during the twentieth century; the reality of psychiatric research and profession in Latin America; the evolution of Spanish psychiatry in the twentieth century from the post civil war diaspora to the beginning of the twenty-first century, and research on mental health in Spain and the foreseeable future.
