OBJECTIVES: to figure out if there are differences in access to @entity146 services between Italian and immigrant paediatric populations. DESIGN: we analysed the data of the year 2012 from the Banca dati del disagio psichico, a database on @entity458 created by the Epidemiological Unit of the Local Health Unit Milan 1 (Lombardy, Northern Italy). The database is based on a data warehouse system that integrates health and social data, and gives the opportunity to calculate the prevalence rates of the main clusters of @entity146 according to ICD-10 categories. SETTING AND @entity1 : the sample includes 162,197 residents younger than 18 years (minors), divided into 4 subgroups depending on the place of birth (Italy or abroad) and citizenship (Italian or foreign). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: we calculated the standardised treated prevalence of the 11 clusters of @entity1032 in the 4 subgroups and evaluated the Standardised Prevalence Ratio (SPR) and their confidence intervals using as reference the Italian paediatric population with Italian citizenship. RESULTS: in 2012, 7.2%minors were diagnosed a @entity1032 or accessed mental health services or were prescribed psychotropic medicines. We found the lowest SPRs of @entity146 illnesses in immigrants (0.91 born in Italy; 0.74 born abroad) and the higher in Italians born in foreign Countries (1.34). In particular, migrant minors born in Italy have lower SPR of @entity245 (0.84) and @entity74 (0.68), but higher SPR of @entity1032 (1.52) and @entity148 (1.36). Migrant minors born abroad have lower SPR of @entity245 (0.52), but higher rates of @entity1032 (1.30). Italians born in foreign Countries show a SPR for @entity1314 and @entity1032 of 4.86 and 2.02, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: immigrant minors have a lower prevalence of @entity146 than Italian minors; however, Italians born in foreign Countries show a higher prevalence of @entity146 .
