Abstract

Introduction

Postpartum depression (PPD) is a chronic mood illness that typically develops in the first few months after giving birth. It affects 17.2% of women worldwide, and its deleterious consequences on infants, children, and mothers have elicited global public concern. Therefore, this paper aims to present an overview of the relationship between emotional support and PPD among postpartum mothers in the Asia region.

Methods

An extensive search using various keywords was conducted in Science Direct, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, JSTOR, Springer Link, and Taylor Francis. The screening process was compliant with the PRISMA guideline, while the quality of the selected studies was assessed using the QuADS tool.

Results

The analysis included 15 research from 12 different countries with 6031 postpartum mothers. A decreased risk of PPD for postpartum mothers is shown to be significantly correlated with greater emotional support, and vice versa.

Discussion

Asian women are less likely to seek emotional assistance than other mothers, which is influenced by culture. There needs to be more research on the impact of culture on postpartum mothers' emotional support. Additionally, this review hopes to raise awareness among the mothers' friends and family as well as the medical community to be more attentive to postpartum mothers' emotional needs and offer specialized assistance.

情绪支持对亚洲产后母亲产后抑郁的影响:一项系统回顾

产后抑郁症(PPD)是一种慢性情绪疾病，通常发生在分娩后的头几个月。它影响着全世界17.2%的妇女，其对婴儿、儿童和母亲的有害后果引起了全球公众的关注。因此，本文旨在概述亚洲地区产后母亲情绪支持与产后抑郁之间的关系。方法采用Science Direct、PsycINFO、PubMed、Scopus、Cochrane Library、JSTOR、施普林格Link、Taylor Francis等多种关键词进行广泛检索。筛选过程符合PRISMA指南，同时使用QuADS工具评估所选研究的质量。结果分析了来自12个不同国家的15项研究，涉及6031名产后母亲。产后母亲PPD风险的降低与更大的情感支持显著相关，反之亦然。受文化的影响，亚洲女性比其他国家的母亲更不愿意寻求情感帮助。文化对产后母亲情感支持的影响还需要更多的研究。此外，本综述希望提高母亲的朋友和家人以及医学界对产后母亲的情感需求的认识，并提供专门的帮助。

期刊介绍： Asia-Pacific Psychiatry is an international psychiatric journal focused on the Asia and Pacific Rim region, and is the official journal of the Pacific Rim College of Psychiatrics. Asia-Pacific Psychiatry enables psychiatric and other mental health professionals in the region to share their research, education programs and clinical experience with a larger international readership. The journal offers a venue for high quality research for and from the region in the face of minimal international publication availability for authors concerned with the region. This includes findings highlighting the diversity in psychiatric behaviour, treatment and outcome related to social, ethnic, cultural and economic differences of the region. The journal publishes peer-reviewed articles and reviews, as well as clinically and educationally focused papers on regional best practices. Images, videos, a young psychiatrist''s corner, meeting reports, a journal club and contextual commentaries differentiate this journal from existing main stream psychiatry journals that are focused on other regions, or nationally focused within countries of Asia and the Pacific Rim.
