Welcome to our summer edition of the Centre for Psychiatry newsletter As you will see from our new staff introduced in this issue the Centre continues to grow and develop. There are changes too within the Wolfson Institute of Preventive Medicine of which we are part. Professor Jack Cuzick, who leads the Centre for Cancer Prevention, has taken over as Director of the Institute following Professor Sir Nicholas Wald. Jack is keen that our Institute should highlight our research strengths in prevention of illness. This includes not only prevention of cancer and coronary heart disease and congenital anomalies but also some of our own work in psychiatry. Much of our work identifying risk factors for mental illness, whether !"#!$%&'"#()*!!+&')#(,$%&-*(,& on adversities in childhood as predictors of adult mental health, .#/&0"12$%&-*(,&*3&42%5(2/23#!2*3& by ethnicity and risk of mental 2))6"+#)!"&#34&7+(+/8&'*24$%&-*(,& on predictors of violence in the general population and in people with mental illness - all these are focussed on identifying more precisely the underlying causes of mental illness in order to design interventions that can help reduce CENTRE FOR PSYCHIATRY

the risk of ill-health. Similarly my own work on adverse working conditions and mental health is leading towards development of interventions to reduce mental ill-health related to the workplace. A new initiative within the Medical School is the development of Life Sciences. This exciting project aims to link research in biomedical sciences into clinical medicine and translate that into new interventions and treatments. It is likely that Psychiatry will be involved in this under the banner of Population Health. Although there are many new developments in this area across research centres in London ours is unique because of our very diverse multi-ethnic population and the opportunities and challenges this presents for implementing healthcare. In Psychiatry we already have a head start in this because much of our research and teaching is closely connected with the local community and its cultural diversity. At the same time, we have collaborative links with other researchers and teaching

institutions across the world. East London is both our home patch but also a microcosm of the wider world outside. As such our local research can have both local relevance and a resonance with mental health issues in very many different parts of the globe.

East London Connects to the World

East London Connects to the World innovation and internationally leading expertise.” Since its establishment in 1997, the Unit for Social and Community Psychiatry has built up close collaborations with local clinical services and has strong international links.

This has involved a school based survey of 26 schools with pupils completing questionnaires and an interview carried out with a sample of their parents.

New forms of institutionalization have possibly occurred in Western Europe in the guise of supported housing, forensic hospitals and mentally disordered individuals within prisons.

By Winnie S Chow PhD Student Background In most Western and Central European countries, the large asylums and hospitals that historically dominated psychiatric care were established in the 19th century. Since the 1950s, mental health care in Europe has undergone major reforms that have led to changes in the practice and organization of psychiatric care models. Probably the most %2L32?5#3!&5"#3L+&23&F(*:2%2*3& of mental health care was the shift from institutional care to the establishment of services in the community beginning in the late 1950s, characterized as the deinstitutionalization movement. Deinstitutionalization led to closure and downsizing of many large hospitals and former asylums and the establishment CENTRE FOR PSYCHIATRY

of community-based psychiatric care models. The development of this movement varies greatly across countries in Europe. Much research has examined the deinstitutionalization movement over the years. Some have argued that the process of deinstitutionalization "#%&#3&*:+(#))&C+3+?!&<*(& psychiatric patients while others have considered the process as a failure.

Research aim With this background in mind, the aim of this series research was to understand trends in the provision of institutionalised mental health care and to better understand cross-country variations.

Major studies so far Several major studies undertaken by the Unit indicate that there

However %2L32?5#3!&235(+#%+&*<&<*(+3%25& psychiatric beds, in the provision of supervised supported housing and prison population were found in most but not all of the nine studied countries. These could be considered as new forms of institutionalisation. B3*!"+(&%!148&24+3!2?+4& 5*/F#(#C)+&/#23&?3423L%&23& twelve post-communist countries after the political changes in 1989. There has been a %2L32?5#3!&4+5(+#%+&23&L+3+(#)& psychiatric hospital beds in all countries but the number of forensic psychiatric beds and supported housing increased in most countries. The percentage decrease in general psychiatric beds ranged from 211% in Croatia to 251% in East Germany. The trends in the prison population ranged from a decrease of 258% in East Germany to an increase

Although Israel has a distinctive history of psychiatric institutionalization compared to European countries, similar trends were observed in a study where changes in health care provision in Israel were analysed and compared with service provision data in Western Europe. Data from this study also indicates a consistent reduction of psychiatric hospital beds and a striking increase in supported housing places and psychiatric treatment in the prison population. Between 1991/2 and 2002/3, a substantial increase of 307% was noted in supported housing places, a rise of 61% in psychiatric treatments in the prison population and a fall of KHS&*<&F%85"2#!(25&"*%F2!#)&C+4%G& Different explanations have been put forward for this process.

The relationship between economic factors (consumer price index, real gross domestic product per capita, based discount rate, and rate of unemployment) and numbers of hospital psychiatric beds were explored in a study

using time series analysis. The two regional data sets from the nineteenth century (North Carolina, USA; Berkshire, UK) and three national data sets in the twentieth century (US; UK; Italy), suggest there is an association between economic factors and psychiatric bed numbers, i.e. as one group goes up, the other goes down. The consumer price index was found to be the strongest predictor of changes in psychiatric bed numbers. Other reasons for increased institutionalisation suggested by aforementioned studies include: a. an increase of psychiatric morbidity requiring more institutional care b. decreased capacity to care for mentally ill family members as a result of increasing family fragmentation

Current activities Currently, research is being undertaken to update the analysis of current trends and exploratory study of potential drivers in Western Europe. For example, we are interviewing mental health professionals about the reasons for changes in institutionalised mental health care over the last 20 years or so. In addition, we are also collecting service provision data including prevalence rates of mental disorders in prisons in South America.

The project is testing the effectiveness of using a computer-mediated structure for routine meetings between patients with schizophrenia and their care co-ordinator.

Elizabeth has previous research experience at the Institute of Psychiatry, Kings College London where she assisted on a clinical trial which aims to optimise anti-psychotic drug prescribing in two groups of older people highly susceptible to drug side effects - Alzheimer›s Disease and Schizophrenia-like Psychosis. Her research interests are mental health treatment development and service evaluation particularly for patients living in the community2$

Previously she worked on a project with Oxford University and Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust, investigating how text and email technology can be used by patients with bipolar disorder to self-monitor and manage their mental health. Her research interests are in how everyday technology can facilitate the management of long term health conditions, with a particular interest in how such treatments can be implemented in clinical practice.

Through participant observation, the observer engages in ongoing activities of a cultural group and records observations allowing for an in depth description of the experience of illness. This two-day workshop provides an introduction to anthropological methods through lectures, seminars and practical workshops and focuses upon a number of topics: setting up an ethnographic study, participant observation, ethics, data analysis and writing ethnography.
