Article Abstract
This paper describes and analyzes the psychiatric reform process in three Latin American countries (Brazil, Chile and Colombia) based on the Caracas Declaration of 1990. It compares the psychiatric reform processes in these three countries and highlights the role of national mental health laws in these processes. Our goal when investigating the experiences in other countries of Latin America is to draw conclusions for the Argentine psychiatric reform and for the future of such reforms in the region.

Deinstitutionalization enables the removal of users from asylums with the support of the Psychosocial Care Network (PCN), which is based on the Psychosocial Care Centers (PCCs). One of the current impasses is the emergence of private/religious institutions that are updating the asylum model. In order to analyze what leads to neo-institutionalization in these locations, an ethnographical study was carried out on nine cases in four PCCs of the three PCNs in the city of Rio de Janeiro, through scrutiny of medical records, interviews with the patient, family members, PCC technicians and managers of the asylums per se.

Depression is a significant global health concern that extends beyond mere neurotransmitter imbalances, as the significance of autophagy in cellular recycling is increasingly recognized as pivotal in its pathogenesis and therapeutic intervention. This review thoroughly integrates the insights on how various antidepressants, such as SSRIs, SNRIs, and TCAs, confer therapeutic efficacy through modulation of autophagy pathways. We present evidence indicating that these pharmacological agents can augment autophagic flux, facilitate the clearance of neurotoxic protein aggregates, mitigate neuroinflammation, and enhance mitochondrial functionality, all of which represent critical elements of depressive pathology.
