title: [Risk factors associated with mental health issues in adolescents: a integrative review].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To identify the risk factors associated with mental health issues in adolescents.
  
  
  METHODS
  An integrative review was conducted in four databases with publications from 2007 to 2013. The terms Adolescent and Mental Health were used to search adequate articles as DeCs/MeSH bases.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Publications were found in different journals in different fields of knowledge and the quantitative research was the most frequent. The mental health issues were categorized as individual factors; drug related factors, school factors, family factors, social factors and STDs/Aids related factors. The most addressed category was individual factors, with 23 publications.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The integrative review allowed to point important questions to be addressed in preventive actions by the health professional, including the nurse, to create a space that works with risk conditioning factors in adolescents for mental health aggravation.
