Intimate partner violence has been recognized as a serious public health issue. Exposure to violence contributes to the genesis of, and exacerbates, mental health conditions, and existing mental health problems increase vulnerability to partner violence, a loop that imprisons victims and perpetuates the abuse. A recently described phenomenon is when male violence against females occurs within intimate relationships during youth, and it is termed adolescent or teen dating violence. In this narrative review, factors associated with intimate partner violence and consequences of exposure of children to parental domestic violence are discussed, along with possible intensification of violence against women with the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic and subsequent lockdown. Intervention programs with a multicomponent approach involving many health care settings and research have a pivotal role in developing additional strategies for addressing violence and to provide tailored interventions to victims. Prevention policy with a particular attention on healthy child and adolescent development is mandatory in the struggle against all forms of violence.
亲密伴侣暴力已被公认为一个严重的公共卫生问题。遭受暴力会导致心理健康问题的产生并使其恶化,而现有的心理健康问题又会增加遭受伴侣暴力的易感性,这是一个将受害者困住并使虐待行为持续存在的恶性循环。最近描述的一种现象是,男性在青少年时期的亲密关系中对女性实施暴力,这种情况被称为青少年约会暴力。在这篇叙述性综述中,我们讨论了与亲密伴侣暴力相关的因素、儿童接触父母家庭暴力的后果,以及随着2019冠状病毒病大流行的蔓延和随后的封锁,针对女性的暴力行为可能加剧的情况。采用多组分方法、涉及许多医疗保健机构和研究的干预项目,在制定应对暴力的更多策略以及为受害者提供量身定制的干预措施方面发挥着关键作用。在与一切形式的暴力作斗争中,必须制定特别关注儿童和青少年健康发展的预防政策。
