“…These inequities in the Circumpolar North may be the consequence of unique socioeconomic and environmental circumstances that have resulted in lower health literacy, lack of access to high quality healthcare, and greater food insecurity when compared to many other world regions (Brega et al 2012;Driscoll et al 2013;IPCC 2014;Sharma 2010;Smith et al 2009). For example, the changing climate in the region has been linked to population displacement, reduced access to hunted and traditional foods, environmental contaminants, and greater risk of injury, disease, and mortality from extreme weather events (Abass et al 2018;Aslaksen et al 2008;IPCC 2014;Loring and Gerlach 2009;Mead et al 2010;Mikow et al 2019;Waits et al 2018). In addition to the unique physical environment, a variety of sociocultural conditions appear to have a significant effect on aging outcomes, such as increased risk of social isolation and declining respect for the wisdom of elders among the younger generations in the Circumpolar North (Driscoll et al 2013;Hopkins et al 2007;Miyawaki 2015).…”

Cross-cultural research has shown marked variation in health outcomes across the world's older adult populations. Indeed, older adults in the Circumpolar North experience a variety of health disparities. Because aging is a biological process rooted in sociocultural context, there exists great variation in the ways older adults define and experience healthy, or "successful," aging in their communities. The aim of this analysis was to synthesize qualitative research among older residents (aged 50+ years) in the Circumpolar North to identify a definition of healthy aging common in the region. A thorough review was conducted across a variety of academic search databases for peer-reviewed, qualitative studies conducted among communitydwelling older adults. The search strategy initially identified 194 articles; 23 articles met the inclusion criteria. Included studies were coded and analyzed using Grounded Theory to examine underlying themes of healthy aging in the Circumpolar North. The findings reveal the importance older adults place on respect, their relationship to the land, and psychosocial resilience into multidimensional models of healthy aging. This research also highlights the need for increased translational research with populations in the Circumpolar North that are under-represented in the literature.

“…Die Lebensqualität und das adaptive Funktionsniveau sind mit klinischen und sozialen Faktoren assoziiert und müssen in der Behandlung berücksichtigt werden. Auch in der extramuralen Versorgung oder bei der Übergabe von der intramuralen an die extramurale Versorgung müssen die speziellen Bedürfnisse dieser Patientengruppe berücksichtigt werden [6].…”

The referral diagnoses of patients suffering from many years of schizophrenic type illnesses were largely in compliance with the diagnostic criteria, a much more difficult issue for the referring doctors was the allocation of patients with a first occurrence of delusional symptoms. Those patients who were allocated to the diagnostic group schizophrenia differed significantly from patients from the group with delusional disorders.

Acute admission was essentially due to acute psychiatric symptoms. Additional somatic comorbidities and psychosocial influencing factors played only a minor role in this study. The patients examined in this study constituted a special group within the acute treatment of inpatient psychiatry because they showed distinctive psychopathological productive symptoms but were relatively healthy from a somatic point of view. Patients with the diagnosis of schizophrenia (F20) or schizoaffective disorder (F25) were significantly different from patients classified into the group of delusional disorders (F22).
