ABSTRACT

This study describes the historic records on AIDS in the Brazilian state of Ceará, with analysis by gender, age group and race. It is a descriptive, retrospective, ecological study, analyzing 7,896 notifications of cases of AIDS, of people aged 13 and above, resident in the Ceará, over the period 2001 through 2011. Percentage occurrences and other data were calculated based on the variables gender, age group and race. Average and comparison tests were made, considering p < 0.05 and the trend line. There is a progressive increase in the number of cases. The majority of cases are in men. The ratio between the sexes falls from 2003 through 2007, but the number of women is still lower overall in the period. Higher rates of occurrence were found between the ages of 30 and 39, and of those with black-white mixed-race skin color (80%). Based on the variables studied in the series that was analyzed, the results indicate a need for differentiated strategies in prevention and control of the disease in the state.


Objetivou-se descrever a série histórica da AIDS, no Ceará, relacionada a sexo, faixa etária e raça. Estudo ecológico, descritivo e retrospectivo, analisou 7.896 notificações de casos de AIDS, de pessoas ≥ 13 anos, residentes no Ceará, entre 2001 e 2011. Calculou-se a incidência dos casos, das variáveis sexo, faixa etária e raça. Realizaram-se testes de médias e comparações, considerando p < 0,05 e a linha de tendência. A taxa de AIDS revela o aumento progressivo do número de casos. Os homens detêm a maioria dos casos. De 2003 a 2007, verificou-se queda na razão entre os sexos, porém o número de mulheres mantém-se inferior no período. Maiores incidências foram verificadas nas idades entre 30 e 39 anos, e entre os de cor parda (80%). Mediante as variáveis estudadas na série analisada, aponta-se a necessidade de estratégias diferenciadas em prevenção e controle da doença no Estado.
