Introduction: Worldwide, AIDS control policies have led to a small decrease in the mortality rate among young people, which is only 6% among young males. For a better effectiveness of these policies, it is necessary to take into account the influence of social determinants of health (SDH) on the mortality rate in each territory. Objective: To spatially analyze the AIDS mortality rate among young people in the state of Pará and the spatial variability of the rate promoted by the DSS from 2007 to 2018. Method: Ecological study using secondary data from the Mortality Information System (SIM). All notifications of AIDS deaths in young people residing in the state of Pará between 2007 and 2018 were included in the study. The mortality rate was analyzed using spatial distribution and autocorrelation, spatial scanning, and geographically weighted regression (GWR). Results: During the study period, 1,372 AIDS deaths were reported among young people from Pará. The AIDS mortality rate showed territorial expansion. Spatial autocorrelation showed two high-high clusters in the period from 2007 to 2010, one formed by municipalities in the southeast of Pará and the other in the metropolitan region of Belém (RMB), with only the cluster of RMB remaining between 2011 and 2018. The RMB presented the highest spatial risk for AIDS mortality and the only one with the spatio-temporal risk in the period 2013-2018. The spatial variability of the AIDS mortality rate was promoted by the "homicide rate among young people", "elementary school dropout rate" and "by the number of families registered in CADÚNICO". Conclusion: This study covers the Amazonian particularities that involve AIDS mortality among young people from Pará, allowing the spatial identification of the involvement of rate variability promoted by the DSS.

Câncer de mama: aspectos epidemiológicos sobre a mortalidade e os efeitos da fisioterapia na sintomatologia e amplitude de movimento

INTRODUCTION: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer, and the most common cause of death from cancer, in women worldwide. Despite the advancement of treatment, there are still many associated complications. OBJECTIVE: to analyze the influence of social, demographic factors, screening procedures and population coverage of primary care on breast cancer mortality in Brazil, and to verify the effect of physical therapy on clinical symptoms and range of motion in women undergoing mastectomy with axillary lymphadenectomy, after chemotherapy and radiotherapy. METHOD: Available and open access secondary data from the SUS Information and Informatics Department, SIDRA (IBGE Automatic Recovery System) and eGestor AB (Primary Care Information and Management) were analyzed. The medical records of 25 women (mean age 55 ± 14 years) after surgical treatment of mastectomy with axillary lymphadenectomy for the diagnosis of breast cancer were also analyzed. The signs and symptoms evaluated were pain, tenderness, phantom breast syndrome, heavy and swollen arm, lymphedema and axillary web syndrome. The range of motion of flexion, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation of the glenohumeral joint was also assessed. RESULTS: It was observed that the mortality rate is higher in brown women; in the Southeast and South regions; and it grows with increasing age. The North region has lower mortality and lower survival. The mortality rate did not decrease with the increase in the coverage of primary health care coverage and the number of biopsy procedures. However, the rate decreased with the increased execution of cytopathological analysis. In addition, physical therapy contributed to the reduction of pain resulting from the clinical-surgical treatment of breast cancer, and promoted an increase in the range of motion of the glenohumeral joint. CONCLUSION: The coverage of health services and the number of screening procedures are not correlated with the breast cancer mortality rate and physical therapy contributes to the improvement of pain and range of motion.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the mortality by mediastinitis and sepsis originated from ruptures and perfurations of the thoracic esophagus, according to length of diagnosis. METHODS: A retrospective study of 14 years (1992 to 2006) was carried out including patients with thoracic esophageal ruptures and perforations, stratified according to sex, age, mechanism of injury, evolution and treatment (< 24 hours and > 24 hours). RESULTS: Sample was composed of 44 patients, 10 females > (22,73%) and 34 males (77,27%). Age range was from 2 months to 77 years, mean 33,2 years. 19 cases (43,18%) were penetrating external trauma: stab in five cases and gunshot in 14. Endoscopic instrumentation was detected in nine cases (20,45%). Patients in whom esophagorraphy was carried out(early diagnosis, less than 24 hours) the mortality was occurred in three cases (20%). Patients in whom esophagectomy was carried out (later diagnosis, more than 24 hours), mortality occurred in eight cases (36,36%), without statistical significance (p >0,05). Considering conservative treatment, mortality was 71,4% (five out of seven cases) and the difference was statistically significant when compared with patients treated by surgery. CONCLUSION: Conservative treatment of mediastinitis from esophageal ruptures and Perforations showed a high mortality rate when compared to surgical treatment. Among surgical patients, the difference was not significant, reaffirming the indication of esophagectomy in advanced infection (more than 24 hours) and esophogorraphy in early cases.

Mortalidade por câncer colorretal no Brasil e medidas inerciais baseadas em smartphones durante o teste do degrau de Chester como preditor de tempo de internação no pós-operatório de câncer abdominopélvico
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-03-24) NASCIMENTO, Ananda Quaresma; MELO NETO, João Simão de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1547661999153615; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4681-8532
INTRODUCTION: Cancers involving the abdominal and pelvic regions are among the main causes of mortality in Brazil, among which the colorectal type (CRC) is the third leading cause of death in the world. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the social and demographic factors that predict higher mortality from colorectal cancer and worse survival rates, as well as to verify whether screening, diagnosis and treatment procedures have an impact on mortality reduction. In addition, to evaluate whether the Chester Step Test (CST), through work, estimated VO2max and analysis of movement through the gyroscope, is a predictor of postoperative hospital stay of cancer patients undergoing abdominopelvic surgeries. METHOD: Secondary and open access data from the Department of Information and Informatics of the SUS and the IBGE Automatic Recovery System were analyzed. 51 cancer patients were also evaluated in the preoperative period of abdominopelvic surgery through CST associated with a smartphone gyroscope. RESULTS: In Brazil, CRC mortality increased after 45 years of age. The highest adjusted mortality rates were found among whites and in the South of the country. A higher risk of death was observed among single, married and widowed people in the North and Northeast than those legally separated in the South. Lower survival rates were observed among brown individuals, those legally separated and residents of the North region. High mortality in the North was associated with an increase in rates of first-line chemotherapy and a decrease in second-line chemotherapy, and in the South, with second-line chemotherapy and abdominoperineal resection of the rectum. For patients in the preoperative period of abdominopelvic surgery, the length of stay 30 days after the operation was longer when those who underwent CST level 1 had less mobility and greater energy expenditure. In addition, the work rate increased with the progression of the test from level 3 onwards. High VO2max is a predictor of length of stay for those who completed levels 3 and 4 of the test. CONCLUSION: Regional differences in sociodemographic and clinical factors can serve as guidelines for adjusting public health policies. In addition, the use of the gyroscope was more accurate in detecting lower mobility and higher energy expenditure. VO2max was able to predict longer postoperative hospital stays and the work variable was less sensitive in assessing patients' physical capacity.
