RESUMEN
Introdução: Diabetes mellitus (DM) é uma doença crônica, não transmissível, cuja prevalência tem aumentado mundialmente. Seu manejo adequado na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) pode reduzir suas complicações e as internações por condições sensíveis à atenção primária. Objetivo: Comparar indicadores de qualidade da atenção a pessoas com diabetes atendidas na rede básica de saúde do Brasil e suas diferenças por região. Métodos: Com delineamento transversal, utilizaram-se dados dos Ciclos I e III do Programa de Melhoria do Acesso e da Qualidade (PMAQ). Os desfechos foram indicadores sintéticos, operacionalizados a partir de 24 variáveis: i) acesso; ii) disponibilidade de insumos e equipamentos em condições de uso; iii) disponibilidade de medicamentos em quantidade suficiente; iv) organização e gestão; v) cuidado clínico; e vi) relato de cuidado adequado. Foram calculadas as diferenças em pontos percentuais (p.p.) dos indicadores entre 2012 e 2018, e os dados foram estratificados por região. Resultados: No geral, houve uma melhora no cuidado à pessoa com DM na APS do Brasil e regiões entre as equipes participantes do PMAQ, entre 2012 e 2018. As prevalências de acesso, disponibilidade de insumos/equipamentos, medicamentos, oferta, organização e gestão apresentaram aumento de, no mínimo, 10 p.p. no período de 6 anos, mas podem melhorar. Conclusões: Considerando que a ocorrência de DM está aumentando no país, faz-se necessário maior investimento na estrutura dos serviços e em programas de educação permanente dos profissionais de saúde.
Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable chronic disease whose prevalence has been increasing worldwide. Its adequate management in Primary Health Care (PHC) can reduce complications and hospitalizations for conditions sensitive to primary care. Objective: To compare quality indicators for the care of people with diabetes treated in the basic health network in Brazil and their differences by region. Methods: With a cross-sectional design, data from Cycles I and III of the PMAQ were used. The outcomes were synthetic indicators, operationalized from 24 variables: i) access; ii) availability of supplies and equipment in usable conditions; iii) availability of medications in sufficient quantities; iv) organization and management; v) clinical care; and vi ) report of adequate care. Differences in percentage points (p.p.) of the indicators between 2012 and 2018 were calculated, and the data were stratified by region. Results: Overall, there was an improvement in the care of people with DM in PHC in Brazil and regions among the teams participating in PMAQ, between 2012 and 2018. The prevalence of access, availability of supplies/equipment, medications, demand, organization, and management showed an increase of at least 10 p.p. within six years, but they can improve. Conclusions: Considering that the occurrence of DM is increasing in the country, greater investment is necessary in the structure of services and in continuing education programs for health professionals.

RESUMEN
Abstract Objective To verify the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain in amateur golfers in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Methods The present is a cross-sectional study performed from September 2019 to March 2020 in golf clubs affiliated to Federação Paulista de Golfe (São Paulo Golf Federation). Federation players were evaluated regarding data on golf practice and sport routine by a main investigator, though an assessment form with multiple-choice questions, to determine sample characteristics and recent pain intensity by the Visual Analogue Scale. Results Approximately 359 amateur golfers were analyzed. The prevalence of pain was of 55.15% (95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 50.0% to 60.3%); the average pain intensity according to the VAS was moderate (mean ± standard deviation: 5.21 ± 2.04; odds ration [OR]: 47,98%). The golfer's age range was significantly associated with the presence of pain (p < 0.05). The highest prevalence estimate of pain was of 68.80% in the age group between 30 and 39 years (OR: 7,33; 95%CI: 2,26 to 23,85; p = 0,0009). The segments most affected by pain were the upper limbs (65.66%), followed by the spine (59.09%) and the lower limbs (32.83%). Conclusion There is a high prevalence rate of pain in Brazilian amateur golfers, especially in younger players in the age group between 30 and 39 years.

RESUMEN
Objective: We aimed to determine the prevalence of self-reported swallowing difficulty (dysphagia) among older Colombians and to explore the factors associated with this condition. Methods: This study presents a secondary analysis of the SABE-Colombia survey, a crosssectional study of community-dwelling older adults. The dependent variable was self reported swallowing difficulty, assessed through the question: "How often do you have difficulty or discomfort swallowing?" Descriptive and bivariate analyses of the sample were performed, followed by multivariate analysis, adjusting for confounding variables. Results: The final sample included 19 004 older Colombians, whose mean age was 69 years (56% women). The overall prevalence of swallowing difficulty was 12.2%. In the multivariate analysis, significant associations were observed between swallowing difficulty and several factors, including male sex (OR 1.14, 95%CI 1.03 1.26), age > 80 years (OR 1.26, 95%CI 1.08 1.47), dependence in activities of daily living (OR 1.62, 95%CI 1.23 2.13), cognitive impairment (OR 1.49, 95%CI 1.30 1.70), depressive symptoms (OR 1.38, 95%CI 1.15 1.65), sarcopenia (OR 1.32, 95%CI 1.02 1.69), malnutrition (OR 1.35, 95%CI 1.23 1.49), and osteoarticular disease (OR 1.18, 95%CI 1.07 1.38). Conclusion: There was a high prevalence of swallowing difficulty among older community-dwelling Colombians. Our results showed a strong correlation between swallowing difficulty and risk factors such as cognitive impairment, depressive symptoms, osteoarticular disease, and dependence in activities of daily living, but not with malnutrition or sarcopenia.

Objective: To estimate the prevalence of hospitalizations due to COVID-19 and to investigate associated factors in adult patients in the city of Barbacena, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Method: This cross-sectional study included a sample of 248 community participants (≥18 years old) with post-COVID-19 complaints treated at an outpatient clinic of the Unified Health System. Data were collected between September 2021 and January 2022. The dependent variable was hospitalization due to COVID-19 (no/yes). The independent variables were operationalized as: age group (18-59/≥60 years), sex (female/male), race (white/other), education (higher/secondary/elementary education+illiterate), marital status (no/with partner), physical activity (active/sedentary), comorbidities (no/yes), systemic arterial hypertension (no/yes), diabetes mellitus (no/yes), use of medication as a treatment for COVID-19 (no/yes), and doses of COVID-19 vaccine (none or one/≥two or three). The prevalence of hospitalization was presented as a percentage. The association between the dependent and independent variables was assessed using binary logistic regression and expressed as odds ratio (OR). Result: The prevalence of hospitalizations due to COVID-19 was 41.5% (36.0% in women and 50.0% in men). Multivariate association analysis showed that age ≥60 years (OR=2.58 [1.41-4.73]), male sex (OR=1.98 [1.10-3.55]), physical inactivity (OR=2.24 [1.38-4.40]), presence of comorbidities (OR=3.15 [1.61-6.17]), and use of medication as a treatment for COVID-19 (OR=3.68 [1.78-7.59]) remained significantly and positively associated with greater odds of hospitalization. Conclusion: Four of 10 patients were hospitalized due to COVID-19. The burden of hospitalization was especially high among older patients, males, sedentary individuals, those with comorbidities, and those who used medication to treat COVID-19

This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of oral mucosal lesions (OML) in domestic waste collectors and their association with occupational exposure to domestic waste. This cross-sectional study included 295 adult men who worked in a waste management company: 129 men were exposed to domestic waste during their labor of waste collection, and 166 were not. The waste collectors used personal protective equipment. The lips, buccal mucosa and sulcus, gum, alveolar ridge, tongue, the floor of the mouth, and soft and hard palate were evaluated. The chi-square or Fisher's exact test assessed the variables associated with OML (P ≤ 0.05). Twenty-five OMLs were observed in 22 volunteers, 8 in the exposed and 17 in the non-exposed group. Actinic cheilitis in the lips and candidiasis were the most common lesions in both groups. OML was not associated with waste exposure (OR= 0.72, 95% CI = 0.29-1.77, P = 0.47). There was no association between domestic waste exposure and actinic cheilitis (OR = 0.70, 95% CI= 0.23-2.15, P = 0.37), candidiasis (OR = 0.42, 95% CI= 0.08-2.12, P = 0.24) or leukoplakia (OR = 0.99, 95% CI= 0.97-1.01, P = 0.32). Actinic cheilitis in the lips and candidiasis were the most common lesions in both exposed and non-exposed groups. Occupational exposure to domestic waste was not related to OML. Proper use of personal protective equipment may have prevented the development of OML in domestic waste collectors. (AU)
Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a ocorrência de lesões de mucosa oral (LMO) em coletores de lixo doméstico e sua associação com a exposição ocupacional a resíduos domésticos. Este estudo transversal incluiu 295 homens adultos que trabalhavam numa empresa de gestão de resíduos: 129 homens foram expostos a resíduos domésticos durante o seu trabalho de coleta de resíduos e 166 não. Os coletores de lixo usavam equipamentos de proteção individual. Foram avaliados lábios, mucosa bucal e vesticulo, gengiva, rebordo alveolar, língua, assoalho da boca e palato mole e duro. O teste qui-quadrado ou exato de Fisher avaliou as variáveis associadas à LMO (P ≤ 0,05). Vinte e cinco LMO foram observadas em 22 voluntários, 8 no grupo exposto e 17 no grupo não exposto. Queilite actínica nos lábios e candidíase foram as lesões mais comuns em ambos os grupos. A LMO não foi associada à exposição a resíduos (OR = 0,72, IC 95% = 0,29-1,77, P = 0,47). Não houve associação entre exposição a resíduos domésticos e queilite actínica (OR = 0,70, IC 95% = 0,23-2,15, P = 0,37), candidíase (OR = 0,42, IC 95% = 0,08-2,12, P = 0,24) ou leucoplasia ( OR = 0,99, IC 95% = 0,97-1,01, P = 0,32). A queilite actínica nos lábios e a candidíase foram as lesões mais comuns nos grupos expostos e não expostos. A exposição ocupacional a resíduos domésticos não esteve relacionada com LMO. O uso adequado de equipamentos de proteção individual pode ter evitado o desenvolvimento de LMO em coletores de lixo doméstico. (AU)
RESUMEN
Objective:To understand the current status and analyze the factors of demoralization of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), providing references for targeted psychological interventions of nursing staff.Methods:Using the cross-sectional survey method, from August 2022 to January 2023, 282 CHF patients who were followed up in the Cardiovascular Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected as the study subjects. They were investigated using the General Information Questionnaire, Demoralization Scale Revised Mandarin Version, Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ), Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF), and the factors influencing the demoralization of CHF patients were analyzed using univariate analysis and multiple linear regression.Results:Among 282 cases, male 172 cases, female 110 cases, aged (62.29±10.05) years old. The Demoralization Scale Revised Mandarin Version′s score of CHF patients was (30.30 ± 10.37) points; the score of BIPQ was (42.18 ± 13.94) points; the score of FoP-Q-SF was (35.41 ± 7.29)points, which were at high level. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that patient disease duration, disease stages, New York heart association cardiac function classification, the score of BIPQ, and the score of FoP-Q-SF were factors influencing the demoralization of CHF patients ( t values were 3.08 to 12.50, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is an urgent need to focus on the current status of the demoralization of CHF patients. It is necessary to develop a systematic and effective intervention strategy for demoralization, to take into account patient disease duration, disease stages, illness perception, and fear of progression in a comprehensive manner.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the different reaction patterns among family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies, and to analyze the influencing factors of different profiles.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with 210 family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies from Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital in Shanghai from January 2022 to December 2022. Data were collected by Caregiver Reaction Assessment, Mishel's Uncertainty in Illness Scale-Family Member Form and Perceived Social Support Scale. Latent profile analysis was used to explore the different reaction patterns among family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies. The influencing factors of caregiver reaction were identified by multivariate Logistic regression.Results:Totally 208 questionnaires were effectively collected. The family caregivers among patients with advanced gynecological malignancies included 163 males and 45 females, aged (53.89 ± 12.61) years old. The reaction characteristics of 208 family caregivers among patients with advanced gynecological malignancies were divided into three categories: low burden and high benefit group (24.5%, 51/208), moderate burden and benefit group (30.8%, 64/208), and high burden and low benefit group (44.7%, 93/208). Compared to the low burden and high benefit group, caregivers with lower levels of social support were more likely to be classified as moderate burden and benefit group, high burden and low benefit group ( OR = 0.563, 0.407, both P<0.01). Caregivers with moderate burden and benefit group, high burden and low benefit group had higher levels of disease uncertainty ( OR = 1.328, 2.064, both P<0.01). The caregiver′s age, monthly family income, education level, and co-caregivers were also influencing factors regarding to care reaction among family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies ( OR values were 0.207-6.422, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The care reaction of family caregivers among patients with advanced gynecological malignancies has obvious categorical features. Healthcare professionals should implement targeted nursing interventions according to their reaction characteristics, so as to reduce the care burden of family caregivers and improve the quality of care for patients with advanced gynecological malignancies.
RESUMEN
ObjectiveThis article aims to investigate the association between hypertension and the risk of GSD by conducting a national multicenter study, a systematic review, and a meta-analysis. MethodsThe study was conducted in three stages. In the first stage, subjects were recruited for health examination in four hospitals in Chengdu, Tianjin, Beijing, and Chongqing, China, from 2015 to 2020, and the multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association between hypertension and the risk of GSD in each center. In the second stage, Embase, PubMed, Wanfang Data, VIP, and CNKI databases were searched for related studies published up to May 2021, and a meta-analysis was conducted to further verify such association. In the third stage, the random effects model was used for pooled analysis of the results of the multicenter cross-sectional study and the findings of previous literature. ResultsA total of 633 948 participants were enrolled in the cross-sectional study, and the prevalence rate of GSD was 7.844%. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that hypertension was positively associated with the risk of GSD(P<0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the association between hypertension and GSD between individuals with different sexes, ages, and subtypes of GSD. A total of 80 articles were included in the systematic review and the meta-analysis, and the results showed that the risk of GSD was increased by 1.022 times for every 10 mmHg increase in diastolic pressure and 1.014 times for every 10 mmHg increase in systolic pressure. ConclusionHypertension significantly increases the risk of GSD, and the findings of this study will provide a basis for the etiology of GSD and the identification of high-risk groups.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the relationship between protein-energy wasting (PEW) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to enroll 150 adult patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis at The Third Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2022 to May 2023. These patients were categorized into four groups based on their PTH levels: low PTH group (< 150 ng/L), standard PTH group (150-300 ng/L), very high PTH group (300-600 ng/L), and extreme high PTH group (> 600 ng/L). The diagnosis of PEW was determined using the diagnostic criteria proposed by the International Society of Renal Nutrition and Metabolism (ISRNM). Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the association between PEW and PTH levels.Results:Among the 150 patients undergoing maintenance dialysis, 52 (34.7%) were diagnosed with PEW. The prevalence of PEW was significantly higher in the low PTH group compared with the standard, very high, and extreme high PTH groups ( χ2 = 20.64, all P < 0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed a strong association between low PTH levels ( OR = 13.810, 95% CI: 2.907-65.603, P = 0.001) and an increased risk of PEW. The risk of PEW in the low PTH group was 13.810 times higher than that in the extreme high PTH group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis further confirmed that low PTH levels ( OR = 19.891, 95% CI: 1.810-218.620, P = 0.014) and low C-reactive protein levels ( OR = 1.056, 95% CI: 1.015-1.099, P = 0.007) were independently associated with an increased risk of PEW. Higher hemoglobin levels ( OR = 0.959, 95% CI: 0.931-0.988, P = 0.005) and a larger middle upper arm circumference ( OR = 0.544, 95% CI: 0.338-0.875, P = 0.012) were independently associated with a reduced risk of PEW. The risk of PEW in the low PTH group was 19.891 times higher than that in the extreme high PTH group. However, there was no significant difference in the risk of PEW in the standard and very high PTH groups compared with the extreme high PTH group (both P > 0.05). Conclusion:The risk of PEW is markedly elevated in patients with low PTH levels, emphasizing the importance of clinical attention to the prevention and treatment of low PTH levels. Addressing this issue may hold great value in reducing the risk of PEW.
RESUMEN
Objective:To understand the basic information such as age,job title,and education of rehabilita-tion therapists in the Grade Ⅲ public psychiatric hospitals in China,and provide fundamental data for the construc-tion of the mental health rehabilitation talent team.Methods:The staffing of rehabilitation therapists in 43 Grade Ⅲpublic psychiatric hospitals in eastern,central,and western regions of China were investigated.The age,education,job title,professional relevance and inter-regional differences of the rehabilitation therapists were statistically ana-lyzed.Results:There were 197 rehabilitation therapists in 43 hospitals surveyed.The age distribution was mainly in 20-30 and 30-40 years old with a bachelor's degree and junior,and more than half of the personnel had their first academy degree related to the rehabilitation profession.The differences in age,education,job title were statistically significant in the eastern,central and western regions.Conclusion:The overall quality of the rehabilitation therapists in China's Grade Ⅲ public psychiatric hospitals is relatively high,and the age structure is reasonable.However,the proportion of senior professional titles is relatively low.Therefore,it is necessary to focus on talent training and the establishment of promotion systems in the future,in order to improve the professional development space and level of the entire industry.
RESUMEN
@#Objective: On 4 March 2022, the first community-acquired case of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was reported in Vanuatu, with community transmission occurring subsequently. It was expected that the number of notified SARS-CoV-2 cases would be an underestimate of the true infection rate of this outbreak; however, the magnitude of underreporting was unknown. The purpose of this study was to provide a population-based estimate of SARS-CoV-2 infection shortly after the first reports of community transmission, to understand the level of underdetection and undernotification in Vanuatu and thus to inform ongoing prevention and response activities. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional SARS-CoV-2 prevalence study in two geographical administrative areas in Port Vila, Vanuatu in April 2022. All residents in selected areas were eligible. Trained teams conducted demographic and behavioural interviews and collected nasal specimens. Specimens were tested by polymerase chain reaction. The primary outcomes were the rates of SARS-CoV-2 attack (point prevalence) and cumulative attack, underdetection, notification and household secondary attack. Results: A total of 252 people from 84 households participated. Among 175 people who had a sample collected, 91 were SARS-CoV-2-positive (attack rate 52.0%). Most cases had not been detected before the study (underdetection rate 91.5%). More than half of previously detected cases were notified (notification rate 65.2%). Discussion: Within the first few weeks of community transmission, more than half of participants in the selected areas had evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection; however, most infections had been undetected. This study provides important information about the rapid spread of novel infectious diseases in Vanuatu.
RESUMEN
Resumo Objetivou-se investigar a associação entre o tempo de uso excessivo de diferentes telas, a qualidade da dieta em adolescentes e características do entorno escolar. Adolescentes de 30 escolas estaduais de Curitiba/PR relataram tempo de tela: televisão, videogame e portáteis. A qualidade da dieta foi avaliada pela frequência de consumo de alimentos. A renda do entorno escolar foi obtida do Censo. O ambiente construído para atividade física investigado por observação sistemática do entorno escolar. A regressão de Poisson multinível foi empregada para estimar associações com as variáveis de exposição. Entre 1.200 adolescentes, 50,9% do sexo masculino, 74,4% tiveram tempo excessivo de tela. O tempo excessivo de TV (56,5%) esteve associado à pior qualidade da alimentação. O tempo excessivo de videogame (22,0%) foi menor no sexo feminino (RP 0,25; IC95% 0,18;0,36), associado à pior qualidade da alimentação, à menor renda do entorno escolar, e à pior classificação do ambiente construído para atividade física. O tempo excessivo de telas portáteis (53,2%) apresentou tendência de aumento com a renda do entorno escolar. O uso excessivo de TV e telas portáteis foi amplamente praticado por adolescentes, com diferentes variáveis demográficas e contextuais associadas de acordo com o tipo de dispositivo utilizado.
Abstract Adolescents from 30 state schools in Curitiba, State of Paraná, reported total screen time, namely television, video games and laptops. Diet quality was assessed by the frequency of food consumption. The income of the school environment was taken from the Census. The built environment for physical activity was investigated by systematic observation of the school surroundings. Multilevel Poisson Regression was used to estimate associations with the exposure variables. Among 1,200 adolescents, 50.9% being male, and 74.4% were found to be exposed to excessive screen time. Excessive TV screen time (56.5%) was associated with poor diet quality. Excessive video game time (22.0%) was lower among females (PR 0.25; 95%CI 0.18;0.36), associated with poor diet quality, lower school environment income, and the worst classification of the built environment for physical activity. Excessive use of portable screens (53.2%) tended to increase with the income of the school environment. Excessive use of TV and laptops was widespread among adolescents, with different demographic and contextual variables associated according to the type of device used.
RESUMEN
Abstract Objective: To assess the prevalence and factors associated with poor self-rated health according to respondents' sex in Manaus, Brazil. Methods: This was a cross-sectional population-based study with adults in Manaus in 2019. Adjusted prevalence ratios and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated using Poisson regression following a hierarchical model. Results: Poor self-rated health occurred in 35.2% (95%CI 33.3;37.2) of the 2,321 participants and was higher in females (PR = 1.27; 95%CI 1.13;1.43). In the general population, among both sexes, poor self-rated health was higher among the oldest, those with moderate and severe food insecurity and with chronic diseases (p-value < 0.05). Among females, poor health was also higher among the evangelical and those with mild food insecurity. Among males, self-rated health was also poorer among the retired and those with education below elementary level (p-value < 0.001). Conclusion: The female sex had the poorest health rating, influenced by morbidity and access to food.

RESUMEN
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the association between bullying at school and tooth loss in southern Brazilian adolescents. This population-based cross-sectional study included a representative sample of 15-19-year-old students attending high schools in Santa Maria, southern Brazil. Data on sociodemographic and behavioral variables were collected through questionnaires. Contextual data on bullying at school was provided by educational institutions (bullying episodes in the previous year: 'no,' 'sometimes,' or 'often'). Tooth loss was clinically assessed by the M component of the DMFT index, modeled as a discrete variable. Multilevel Poisson regression was used, and rate ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated. The prevalence of tooth loss was 9.2% (95%CI = 7.5-10.8). Adolescents who attended the schools where bullying events often occurred had 0.39 (95%CI = 0.33-0.45) missing teeth, on average, in contrast to an average of 0.14 (95%CI = 0.08-0.19) among those whose schools did not experience bullying in the previous year. After adjusting for important cofactors, the contextual variable of bullying at school remained significantly associated with the study outcome. Adolescents who attended schools where bullying frequently occurred were 2.49-fold more likely to have an additional missing tooth than those whose school did not experience bullying in the previous year (RR = 2.49, 95%CI = 1.37-4.51, p = 0.003). In conclusion, the frequent bullying episodes at school were associated with more permanent teeth lost due to caries in this population. Hence, improving the school environment may improve the oral health of adolescents.
RESUMEN
Resumo O estudo visa identificar e analisar fatores associados à insegurança alimentar (IA), as tendências e a distribuição espacial para estratos geográficos. Investigou-se a hipótese de piora do desfecho de IA grave nos domicílios, medido pela Escala Brasileira de Insegurança Alimentar (EBIA), como efeito da crise e/ou da política de austeridade. O artigo envolve estudos com desenho transversal para análises seccionais e ecológico misto de tendências espaço-temporais, a partir de quatro inquéritos nacionais do IBGE. Adotou-se procedimento de calibração dos pesos segundo distribuição por sexo e faixa etária e métodos de estimação e modelagem que incorporam efeitos do desenho amostral. A regressão de Poisson com estimação robusta de variância foi empregada para estimar razões de prevalências de IA grave em nível etiológico. Para o nível ecológico, empregou-se duas abordagens de modelagem multinível para medidas repetidas de estratos: regressão múltipla log-log para associações; e modelagem de splines para estimação de tendências. Os achados apontam impactos da austeridade adotada, com mudanças de tendências no Programa Bolsa Família e reflexos sobre o aumento da IA grave. Projeta-se o aumento da IA e afastamento do alcance do objetivo nº 2 dos ODS em 2030 pelo Brasil, a despeito do sucesso obtido em 2014 para o ODM nº 1.
Resumen Este estudio tiene como objetivo identificar y analizar factores asociados a la inseguridad alimentaria (IA), tendencias y distribución espacial por estratos geográficos. Se investigó la hipótesis de un deterioro del resultado de IA grave en los hogares, medido por la Escala Brasileña de Inseguridad Alimentaria (EBIA), como efecto de la crisis o de la política de austeridad. El artículo involucra estudios con diseño transversal para análisis ecológicos transversales y mixtos de tendencias espacio-temporales, basados en cuatro encuestas nacionales del IBGE. Se adoptó un procedimiento de calibración de los pesos según distribución por sexo y grupo de edad y métodos de estimación y modelación que incorporan efectos del diseño muestral. Se utilizó la regresión de Poisson con estimación robusta de la varianza para estimar los índices de prevalencia de IA grave a nivel etiológico. Para el nivel ecológico, se utilizaron dos enfoques de modelado multinivel para mediciones repetidas de estratos: regresión múltiple log-log para asociaciones y modelado Splines para estimación de tendencias. Los hallazgos apuntan a los impactos de la austeridad adoptada, con cambios en las tendencias del Programa Bolsa Familia e impactos en el aumento de la IA severa. Se proyecta que Brasil aumentará la IA y se alejará de alcanzar el objetivo N°2 de los ODS en 2030, a pesar del éxito alcanzado en 2014 para el ODM nº1.
Abstract This study aims to identify and analyse factors associated with food insecurity (FI), trends and spatial distributions for geographical strata. The hypothesis of worsening of the outcome of severe FI, measured by the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale (EBIA) in households, as an effect of the crisis and/or the austerity policy, was investigated. The article involves studies with cross-sectional design and mixed ecological for spatio-temporal trends, based on 4 national IBGE surveys. A weight calibration procedure to match population distribution by gender and age group was adopted, as well as estimation and modelling methods that incorporate effects of the sample design. Poisson regression with robust estimation of variance was used to estimate prevalence ratios of severe FI at the etiological level. For the ecological level, two multilevel modelling approaches were employed for repeated measurements of strata: multiple log-log regression for associations; and modelling of splines for trend estimation. The findings point to impacts of the austerity policy adopted, with changes in trends in the Programa Bolsa Família - PBF (Family Benefit Programme - FBP) and on the increase in severe FI. It is projected that there will be an increase in FI and a shortfall in relation to achievement of the SDG no. 2 in 2030 by Brazil, despite the success obtained in 2014 for MDG no. 1.
RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Objective To estimate the prevalence of factors associated with drinking and driving in Northeastern Brazil. Methods This was a cross-sectional study conducted with participants from the 2019 National Health Survey, aged ≥ 18 years; the analysis of the association between sociodemographic variables and the outcome, stratified by sex, was performed using Poisson regression. Results The prevalence of drinking and driving was 21.0% ( 95%CI 19.9;23.2), with 24.6% ( 95%CI 22.7;26.5), in males and 10.1 % ( 95%CI 7.9;12.7), in females (p-value < 0.001); among men, younger age groups (PR = 1.70 - 95%CI 1.29;2.24), higher household income (PR = 1.74 - 95%CI 1.33;2.28), rural residence (PR = 1.48 - 95%CI 1.26;1.74) and motorcycle riding (PR = 1.29 - 95%CI 1.05;1.58) were associated with the event, while no association was observed among women. Conclusion Prevalence of drinking and driving was high in the Northeast region, especially among the male population; preventive measures targeting this group and intensified enforcement are necessary.
