ABSTRACT Objective To analyze the survival of patients with Chagas disease, beneficiaries of social security and social assistance, in Brazil, from 1942 to 2016. Methods This is a retrospective cohort study with data from the Brazilian Ministry of Social Security. The event of interest was death, and the survival functions were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression methods. Results In the period "onset of the disease until death", women (HR=0.54; 95%CI 0.43-0.53) and receiving social security benefits (HR=0.13; 95%CI 0.11-0.23) were associated with longer survival. Lower survival was associated with the cardiac form of the disease (HR=2.64; 95%CI 2.23-3.12), living in a rural area (HR=1.23; 95%CI 1.14-1.21), and manifestation of the disease between the years 2000 and 2016 (HR=5.32; 95%CI 4.74-5.93). Likewise, in the period "work disability until death", women (HR=0.51; 95%CI 0.41-0.52) and receiving social security benefits (HR=0.24; 95%CI 0,14-0.45) were associated with longer survival, as well as the cardiac form of the disease (HR=1.95; 95%CI 1.83-2.13), living in a rural area (HR=1.31; 95%CI 1.21-1.54), and manifestation of the disease between 2000 and 2016 (HR=1.53; 95%CI 1.33-1.71) were associated with lower survival. Conclusion The main predictors of mortality and survival of patients with Chagas disease who receive social security and assistance benefits in Brazil were presented. These findings can guide the definition of priorities for follow-up actions by Primary Health Care, currently recommended for the longitudinal management of the disease.
RESUMO Objetivo Analisar a sobrevida de portadores da doença de Chagas, beneficiários da previdência e da assistência social no Brasil, 1942-2016. Métodos Estudo de coorte retrospectivo com dados do Ministério da Previdência Social. O evento de interesse foi o óbito, e as funções de sobrevida foram estimadas pelos métodos Kaplan-Meier e de regressão de Cox. Resultados No período "início da doença até o óbito", o sexo feminino (HR=0,54; IC95% 0,43-0,53) e recebimento de benefícios previdenciários (HR=0,13; IC95% 0,11-0,23) foram associados a maior sobrevida. A menor sobrevida esteve associada à forma cardíaca da doença (HR=2,64; IC95% 2,23-3,12), residência em zona rural (HR=1,23; IC95% 1,14-1,21) e manifestação da doença entre os anos de 2000 e 2016 (HR=5,32; IC95% 4,74-5,93). Da mesma forma, no período "incapacidade laboral até o óbito", o sexo feminino (HR=0,51; IC95% 0,41-0,52) e o recebimento de benefícios previdenciários (HR=0,24; IC95% 0,14-0,45) foram associados a maior sobrevida, assim como forma cardíaca da doença (HR=1,95; IC95% 1,83-2,13), residência em zona rural (HR=1,31; IC95% 1,21-1,54) e manifestação da doença entre os anos de 2000 e 2016 (HR=1,53; IC95% 1,33-1,71) associaram-se a menor sobrevida. Conclusão Os principais preditores de mortalidade e sobrevida de portadores de doença de Chagas que recebem benefícios previdenciários e assistenciais no Brasil foram apresentados. Estes achados podem nortear a definição de prioridades de ações de acompanhamento pela atenção primária à saúde, preconizada atualmente para o manejo longitudinal da doença.

Resumo O artigo busca traçar um panorama na construção dos discursos reformistas no campo previdenciário brasileiro pós-Constituição Federal de 1988. Para tanto, estabelece uma análise das exposições de motivos anexadas às Propostas de Emendas Constitucionais (PECs) e que justificam os projetos submetidas ao Parlamento brasileiro. O estudo tem como pressupostos teórico-metodológicos a análise de discurso crítica (ADC), buscando responder em que medida as concepções de austeridade e financeirização permeiam o processo de construção dos discursos que justificam a proposição das reformas previdenciárias. É também objetivo deste trabalho desvelar as ideologias presentes nos discursos. Os resultados apontam que os ideais capitalistas pautados pela lógica da financeirização e da austeridade aparecem na construção dos discursos das reformas, o que demonstra sua influência sobre a construção discursiva de seus autores, inferindo uma filiação das reformas a essas concepções hegemônicas. Conclui-se que a ADC é um importante meio para compreender os processos que envolvem as políticas públicas, desde sua formulação até sua avaliação.
Resumen El artículo busca esbozar un panorama en la construcción de discursos reformistas en el campo de la seguridad social brasileña después de la Constitución Federal de 1988. Con este fin, establece un análisis de las exposiciones de motivos adjuntas a las propuestas de enmiendas constitucionales y que justifican los proyectos sometidos al Parlamento brasileño. Sus supuestos teóricos y metodológicos son el análisis crítico del discurso (ADC), que busca responder en qué medida las concepciones de austeridad y financiarización impregnan el proceso de construcción de los discursos que justifican la proposición de las reformas de la seguridad social brasileña. También es el objetivo de este trabajo develar las ideologías presentes en los discursos. Los resultados indican que los ideales capitalistas guiados por la lógica de la financiarización y la austeridad aparecen en la construcción de los discursos de las reformas, lo que demuestra su influencia en la construcción discursiva de sus autores, infiriendo una afiliación de las reformas a estas concepciones hegemónicas. Se concluye que la ADC es un medio importante para comprender los procesos que involucran políticas públicas, desde su formulación hasta su evaluación.
Abstract This article seeks to outline a panorama in the construction of reformist discourses in the Brazilian social security field after the 1988 Federal Constitution, unveiling the ideologies present in such discourses. The study conducted an analysis of the explanatory statements that justify constitutional amendment proposals submitted to the Brazilian parliament. The theoretical and methodological method was critical discourse analysis (CDA), seeking to answer to what extent the conceptions of austerity and financialization permeate the process of construction of the discourses that justify the proposition of the Brazilian social security reforms. The results indicate that capitalist ideologies guided by the logic of financialization and austerity appear in the construction of the reformist discourses, which demonstrates their influence on the authors and suggests the affiliation of the reforms to these hegemonic conceptions. It is concluded that CDA is an important tool to understand the processes that involve public policies, from its formulation to its evaluation.
Résumé
Introducción: El Régimen Subsidiado (RS) del sistema de salud colombiano tiene problemáticas estructurales que no han sido solucionadas y son pocos los estudios que profundizan en la explicación de estas. Objetivo: Explorar la experiencia en la dirección estratégica y gestión operativa y financiera de este régimen, sus aspectos operativos y de gestión del riesgo en esta población, así como las diferencias percibidas frente al Régimen Contributivo. Metodología: Estudio cualitativo. Se utilizó el análisis del discurso desde la perspectiva sociohermenéutica como técnica analítica. Se entrevistaron diez participantes, entre directivos de aseguradoras del RS y gestores del sistema de salud. Las entrevistas fueron grabadas y anonimizadas, previo consentimiento informado. Resultados: Emergen tres patrones discursivos que explican la gestión del riesgo en el RS y su diferenciación con el contributivo. Estos patrones se conectan por medio del rol de los determinantes sociales de la salud como ordenador principal de los procesos de salud-enfermedad y de atención en este régimen. A su vez, estas condiciones de vida son las que determinan de manera importante el perfil epidemiológico, acceso, costo de la atención y en general la forma cómo se consumen los servicios de salud por la población afiliada. Discusión: La literatura del aseguramiento en salud reporta que la gestión del riesgo es una función central y supone un ejercicio estratégico para el adecuado manejo de la siniestralidad para optimizar el uso de la Unidad de Pago por Capitación (UPC) asignada. Los hallazgos muestran que los determinantes sociales de la salud no están siendo tenidos en cuenta como ordenador para la atención, por lo tanto, la gestión del riesgo se centra en la atención de patologías en estados avanzados. Conclusiones: los actores perciben que en general, la situación de salud de los afiliados en este régimen es más grave, más complicada y con mayor carga, lo cual genera una tensión en materia de suficiencia de la unidad per cápita. Existe una ausencia discursiva sobre el rol del modelo de atención y su correlación con las necesidades de esta población.
Introduction: The subsidized regime (SR) of the Colombian health system has structural problems that have not yet been resolved and there is a lack of studies that allow the understanding of most of them. The aim of this study was to explore with stakeholders of the subsidized regime the experience about strategic, financial, and health risk management and the differences perceived with the contributory regime. Methods: A qualitative study was performed; the analytic technique used was the discourse analysis under socio-hermeneutic perspective. 10 participants were interviewed, among them directors of insurance companies of SR and health care system managers. The interviews were recorded, prior informed consent, and analyzed according to the discourse analysis. Finding: Three discursive patterns emerged that explain risk management in SR and its differentiation from contributory regime. These patterns are connected through the role of the social determinants of health as the main axis that explain the health-disease and care processes in this regimen. At the same time, these living conditions are what determine the epidemiological profile, access, cost of care and, in general, the way in which health services are consumed by the affiliated population. Discussion: The health insurance literature reports that risk management is a central function, and it is a strategic exercise for the proper management of claims to optimize the use of resources, however, the findings show that the social determinants of health are not being taken into account as a key element for healthcare organization, therefore, risk management focuses on care for pathologies in advanced stages. Conclusions: The actors perceive that the health situation in this regime is more severe, more complicated and with a greater burden disease, which generates a tension in terms of sufficiency of the Per Capita Unit. There is a discursive absence on the role of the care model and its correlation with the needs of this population.
Résumé
Resumo O artigo analisou o processo de precarização das relações de trabalho no setor da saúde, demonstrando como essa situação gerou sofrimento dos trabalhadores. O texto buscou registrar como a adoção institucional das concepções econômicas neoliberais, de redução das políticas sociais de Estado, acopladas a um histórico de rejeição cultural aos direitos trabalhistas, proporcionou a atração dos mecanismos de precarização do trabalho, notadamente, a terceirização da mão de obra e da prestação de serviços. No segundo momento, o texto aponta as impropriedades jurídicas cometidas, apresentando as consequências da fragilização do vínculo jurídico nas condições de trabalho desses trabalhadores, principalmente no que se refere às jornadas de trabalho e a remuneração, destacando-se, também, o quanto a disseminação desses vínculos representou um fator de rebaixamento geral dos salários e direitos trabalhistas e previdenciários no setor. Foram apresentados, ainda, dados das pesquisas da Fiocruz sobre condições de trabalho durante a pandemia. Conclui mostrando a urgência de se resgatarem os institutos jurídicos trabalhistas que foram abandonados no percurso histórico estudado, para direcionar a novo rumo as políticas públicas na saúde.
Abstract The present article analyzed the process of precarious work relations in the health sector, demonstrating how this situation generated illness and suffering among workers. The text sought to register how the institutional adoption of neoliberal economic conceptions, of the reduction of State social policies, coupled with a history of cultural rejection of labor rights, provided the attraction of mechanisms of precarious work for the public sector, notably, the outsourcing of labor and the provision of services. In a second moment, the text points out the legal improprieties committed, presenting the consequences of the weakening of the legal bond in the working conditions of these workers, mainly regarding working hours and remuneration, also highlighting how much the dissemination of these links represented a factor of a general reduction in wages and labor and social security rights in the sector. Data from Fiocruz surveys on working conditions during the pandemic were also presented. The article concludes by showing the urgency of rescuing the legal labor institutes that were abandoned in the historical path studied in order to guide the public health policies in a new direction.
Résumé
Se realizó una evaluación quinquenal de los ejes sanitarios (que dan lugar a objetivos estratégicos con sus correspondientes metas e indicadores, áreas de intervención y líneas de acción) dentro del marco de la gestión sanitaria de uno de los 10 principales agentes de la seguridad social argentinos quien implementaba desde hacía 20 años un Programa Nacional de Atención Primaria de la Salud (PNAPS). El mismo promedió alrededor de 800 mil beneficiarios anuales dentro de una red asistencial nacional propia en el primer nivel de atención compuesta por 45 Centros de Atención Primaria (CAPs). Se implementó una investigación evaluativa que incluyó un trazado de línea de base con la valoración de cinco Ejes Sanitarios (ES). Se trata de un diseño de corte transversal de un periodo de 5 años. Se definieron metas, indicadores y recomendaciones para cada uno de los ES, recopilando información de fuentes diferentes y complementarias para su análisis. Los resultados mostraron una evolución favorable en el período evaluado, aunque el cumplimiento de las metas estuvo bastante alejado de lo propuesto de manera teórica. Conclusiones: este trabajo aporta información valiosa y original para subsidiar la toma de decisiones e incentivar la investigación en el ámbito de la APS, buscando reformular los actuales modelos de gestión y de atención de la salud (AU)
A five-year evaluation of the health axes (which give rise to strategic objectives with their corresponding goals and indicators, areas of intervention and lines of action) was carried out within the framework of health management of one of the 10 main argentine social security agents who had been implementing a National Primary Health Care Program (PNAPS) for 20 years. It averaged around 800,000 annual beneficiaries within its own national care network at the first level of care made up of 45 Primary Care Centers (CAPs). An evaluative investigation was implemented that included a baseline drawing with the assessment of five Sanitary Axis (ES). It is a cross-sectional design of a period of 5 years. Goals, indicators and recommendations were defined for each of the ES, collecting information from different and complementary sources for analysis. Results: they showed a favorable evolution in the period evaluated, although the fulfillment of the goals was quite far from what was theoretically proposed. The results of this work provides valuable and original information to support decision-making and encourage research in the field of PHC, seeking to reformulate current management and health care models (AU)

Background: The global population continues to rise at different rates in different parts of the world. While some countries are seeing a fast population increase, others are experiencing population loss. Significant ramifications of such changes in the global population distribution would be felt, as they are critical for meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), or we might say that rapid population expansion poses obstacles to sustainable development. Estimating the population size and composition by age, sex, and other demographic parameters is crucial for analyzing the country’s future influence on poverty, sustainability, and development. This study tries to look at these parameters covered by the National Family Health Survey- 5 (NFHS 5) to see how accurate and trustworthy the predictors of district population size are. Methodology: The study assessed the predictors of the population size of any district. It was conducted using the secondary data of phase 1 of NFHS-5. The outcome variable is the population of each district. Household profiles, literacy among women, their marriage and fertility, contraceptive usage, and unmet need for family planning were considered to assess their potential as a predictor of the district’s population size. Principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted to identify the predictors. Result: PCA was conducted on 18 variables, resulting in 7 principal components. Cumulatively, these components explained 77.6% of the total variation in data. On multiple linear regression, four principal components were found significant and these were related to women’s literacy, contraceptive usage, early pregnancy, the marriage of fewer than 18 years, and those using health insurance. Conclusion: Thus, women’s literacy plays a pivotal role in determining a region’s population size.

Objetivo: identificar los patrones alimentarios de la población adulta Antioqueña y su asociación con variables socioeconómicas. Métodos: estudio transversal con muestra aleatoria de 1.394 adultos de 18 a 59 años, derivados del estudio Perfil alimentario y nutricional de Antioquia 2019. El consumo alimentario fue evaluado con recordatorio de consumo en 24 horas (R24h) y un segundo R24h en día no consecutivo al 25% de la muestra, se cuantificó el consumo de alimentos en gramos, los patrones alimentarios se establecieron mediante análisis factorial por Componentes principales con rotación ortogonal varimax. Para verificar la asociación entre los patrones alimentarios y las variables socioeconómicas se empleó regresión de Poisson por varianza robusta. Resultados: se definieron tres patrones alimentarios que representan el 28,1% de la varianza: "Tradicional" (9,8%), "Regional" (9,7%) y "Prudente" (8,6%). Los dos primeros se asociaron con variables demográficas, como sexo, edad y etnia; mientras que el último se asoció con variables socioeconómicas como escolaridad, ingresos familiares, régimen de seguridad social y clasificación de seguridad alimentaria. Conclusiones: Los hallazgos del presente estudio muestran que la dieta de la población estudiada, sigue unos referentes de tradición alimentaria, reflejados en los patrones Tradicional y Regional, mientras que el patrón Prudente, corresponde a la parte de la población que tiene mejores condiciones socioeconómicas y probablemente lo siguen por recomendación de salud.
Objective: to identify the eating patterns of the adult population from Antioquia, Colombia, and their association with socioeconomic variables. Methods: a cross-sectional study was performed with a random sample of 1,394 adults aged 18 to 59 years, derived from the Antioquia Food and Nutritional Profile 2019 study. Food consumption was evaluated with a 24-hour consumption recall (R24h) and a second R24h on a non-consecutive day at 25% of the sample, food consumption was quantified in grams, and food patterns were established by factorial analysis by Principal Components with varimax orthogonal rotation. To verify the association between eating patterns and socioeconomic variables, Poisson regression was used for robust variance. Results: three eating patterns were defined that represent 28.1% of the variance: "Traditional" (9.8%), "Regional" (9.7%), and "Prudent" (8.6%). The first two were associated with demographic variables, such as gender, age, and ethnicity; while the latter was associated with socioeconomic variables such as schooling, family income, social security system, and food security classification. Conclusions: The findings of this study show that the diet of the population of the study, follows some references to food tradition, reflected in the Traditional and Regional patterns, while the Prudent pattern corresponds to the part of the population that has better socioeconomic conditions, and they probably follow it for health recommendation.
Résumé
Resumen Introducción: En Argentina, los medicamentos de alto costo (MAC) generan una carga económica elevada que deben afrontar las instituciones sanitarias. Sin embargo, no existe a la fecha un estu dio en Argentina que indique la magnitud del real problema de los MAC para la Seguridad Social. El presente trabajo, explora cuál es su impacto económico para una de las principales Obras Sociales del país. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo con etapa analítica a partir de datos obtenidos en gerencia de prestaciones, área farmacia y área contable de la institución. Cada medicamento fue clasificado según recomendación de OMS (clasificación Anatómica-Terapéutica- Química-ATC). Los precios fueron consignados en tres valores: nominal al momento de adquisición, actualizado a pesos fin de 2021 utilizando el CER (coeficiente de estabilización de referencia), y en dólares (USD). Se evaluaron 105 324 dispensas de MAC, correspondientes a 258 011 unidades para 10 450 afiliados. Resultados: El gasto total anualizado fue 57 millones de dólares (USD), y por usuario 6220 USD. Solo 1.9% de los afiliados requirieron MAC, aunque el gasto fue del 21.9% de los ingresos (aportes + contribuciones). Los primeros 5 medicamentos que generaron el mayor gasto fueron enzalutamida, bevacizu mab, nivolumab, palbociclib, pembrolizumab. Las enfermedades oncológicas y reumatológicas representaron el 62.8% del gasto. Conclusión: A la luz de los resultados, se deduce que los MAC constituyen un riesgo potencial de desfinanciación del sistema de salud si son abordados de manera atomizada por cada subsector. Los MAC requieren de políticas globales de carácter nacional y/o regional.
Abstract Introduction: In Argentina, high-cost drugs (HCD) induce a high economic burden for all the health system sec tors. However, it does not exist in Argentina any data that indicates the real problem of HCD for Social Security. That is why, the present study explores the economic impact of the HCD for one of the main Institutions of the country. Methods: A descriptive study with an analytical stage was carried out based on data obtained from management, pharmacy and accounting area. Each drug was classified according to WHO recommendation (Anatomical-Therapeutic-Chemical-ATC classification). The prices were expressed in three ways: nominal value at the time of acquisition in local currency, updated using the CER (reference stabilization coefficient), and in US dollars. A total of 105 324 HCD dispensed were evaluated, which corresponded to 258 011 units destined to 10 450 patients. Results: Total annualized spend was US$57 million (US$6220 per patient). Only 1.9% of affiliates required HCD, although those expenses represented 21.9% of the institutions´ total income. The first 5 drugs associated to the highest expenditure were enzalutamide, bevacizumab, nivolumab, palbociclib, pembrolizumab. Oncological and rheumatological diseases represented 62.8% of the HCD costs. Conclusion: Considering the results obtained, it can be deduced that if the HCD problem is approached in a scattered way by each subsec tor, it will become a potential risk for health system defund. The HCD topic requires of global policies at national or even regional level.

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é descrever a distribuição do câncer entre os benefícios concedidos pelo Registro Geral da Previdência Social (RGPS), de 2008 a 2014, no Brasil. Estudo ecológico com dados cedidos pelo Instituto Nacional do Seguro Social (INSS). Determinou-se a proporção de benefícios acidentários (relacionados ao trabalho) e previdenciários (gerais) concedidos por câncer no Brasil, entre os benefícios concedidos por todas as causas e realizou-se uma análise espacial para avaliar a distribuição geográfica dessas proporções, tendo os estados brasileiros como unidade de análise. O câncer foi motivo de concessão de 533.438 benefícios (2,9% do total de benefícios concedidos por todas as causas), com predomínio do sexo feminino nos benefícios previdenciários (53,7%) e do sexo masculino nos benefícios acidentários (71,6%). As maiores proporções de benefícios previdenciários por câncer ocorreram nas regiões Norte e Centro-Oeste. Em 19 dos 26 estados brasileiros e no Distrito Federal não houve concessão de benefício acidentário por câncer. A análise das ocorrências de câncer que geraram concessões de benefícios do RGPS sugere uma desproporcionalidade da concessão de benefícios previdenciários em relação aos acidentários, principalmente nas regiões Norte, Nordeste e Sul do Brasil.
Abstract This article aims to describe the distribution of cancer among the benefits granted by the General Social Security Registry, from 2008 to 2014, in Brazil. Ecological study using data given by the National Social Security Institute. The proportion of accidental (work-related) and social security (general) benefits granted by cancer in Brazil was determined, among the benefits granted for all causes, and a spatial analysis was conducted to assess the geographical distribution of these proportions, with the states Brazilians as a unit of analysis. Cancer was the reason for granting 533,438 benefits (2.9% of the total benefits granted for all causes), with a predominance of females in social security benefits (53.7%) and males in accidental benefits (71.6 %). The highest proportions of social security benefits for cancer occurred in North and Midwest regions. In 19 of the 26 Brazilian states (including all states in the southern region) and in the Federal District, there was no granting of accident benefits for cancer. The analysis of the occurrences of cancer that generated benefit concessions suggests a disproportionality in granting of social security benefits in relation to accident workers, mainly in North, Northeast and South regions of Brazil.
Résumé
Background Pneumoconiosis is one of the most common and widespread prescribed occupational diseases in China, and there is no cure for it at present. The Healthy China 2030 underlines that the prevention and treatment of pneumoconiosis are the critical element of promoting occupational health. Objective To understand the basic characteristics, social security, and death causes of pneumoconiosis cases in Ninghai County, and to provide a basis for scientific prevention and treatment of pneumoconiosis. Methods Information on pneumoconiosis cases in Ninghai County from 1974 to 2019 was obtained by consulting occupational disease and occupational health information monitoring systems, occupational disease diagnosis institutions, and employers, which may retain original data on occupational pneumoconiosis diagnosis, as well as specialized epidemiological survey projects on pneumoconiosis. Telephone or face-to-face follow-up visits were conducted based on relevant information to complete or verify relevant information such as length of service with dust exposure, type, stage, and diagnosis date of pneumoconiosis. ANOVA, chi-square test, and rank-sum test were used to analyze age of diagnosis and age of death, entitlement to social security and mortality rate of cases/length of service. Results As of the end of 2019, a total of 420 cases of pneumoconiosis were diagnosed among workers exposed to dust in Ninghai County, with 409 cases (97.38%) followed up and 11 cases (2.62%) lost to follow-up. Since the first case of pneumoconiosis was reported in 1974, 39 cases, 278 cases, and 101 cases of pneumoconiosis were reported before 2000, from 2000 to 2009, and from 2010 to 2019, respectively. Two other cases of pneumoconiosis were diagnosed with an unknown year, one as a dead case and one as a lost case. There were 294 surviving pneumoconiosis cases, who mainly lived in Sangzhou Town. The mean age of diagnosis was (58.68±15.37) years old, and the median length of service with exposure to dust was 8.0 (4.0, 15.7) years. The age of diagnosing stage III pneumoconiosis was less than that of stage I and stage II, and the difference between the age of diagnosing stage III and stage II pneumoconiosis was significant (P <0.05). There were 231 cases (78.57%) aged ≥ 60 years, while there were 74 cases aged ≥ 80 years (25.17%). There were 160 cases (54.42%) whose length of service was < 10 years. There were 12.59% and 7.82% of the total cases compensated by work injury insurance and civil compensation by employers, respectively. From the perspective of diagnosis period, the proportion of patients who collected work-related injury insurance and civil compensation from employers in the 2010—2019 year group was higher than that in the <2000 year group or the 2000—2009 year group (P<0.01). There were 115 fatal pneumoconiosis cases, and the fatality rates of stage I, II , and III pneumoconiosis were 23.86%, 18.18%, and 50.75%, respectively. The fatality rate of stage III pneumoconiosis was higher than that of stage I or II (P <0.05). The age of diagnosis and age of death of stage III pneumoconiosis cases were lower than those of stage I and II (P <0.05). The cause of death was definite in 65 patients, including 25 cases (38.46%) of respiratory diseases (except lung cancer) and 28 cases (43.07%) of tumors, and lung cancer accounted for 1/2 of the pneumoconiosis cases that died due to tumors. Conclusion The surviving pneumoconiosis cases in Ninghai are mainly older than 60 years old and largely live in Sangzhou Town. Constructing local rehabilitation stations should be taken as an opportunity to actively prevent and treat pneumoconiosis complications, further improving the quality of life of pneumoconiosis patients.

Objective: To analyze the base incidence, distribution characteristics, survival status and social security of occupational pneumoconiosis (hereinafter referred to as "pneumoconiosis") in Zibo City. Methods: The new pneumoconiosis patients in Zibo City from 1949 to 2021 were selected as the research subjects using a cross-sectional survey. Household survey or telephone follow-up were carried out, and the distribution characteristics, living conditions and social security situation were retrospectively analyzed. Results: A total of 8 910 patients with pneumoconiosis were investigated, and 96.0% of them were male. The stage Ⅰ pneumoconiosis patients accounted for 91.3%. From 1949 to 2021, the number of pneumoconiosis patients showed a stepwise upward trend with time. Most of the patients suffered from coal worker pneumoconiosis and silicosis, which accounted for 48.7% and 38.9%, respectively. The average age of onset was (52.7±11.4) years, and the average length of service exposed to dust was (21.1±9.4) years. The patients were concentrated in Zichuan District, Boshan District and Zhangdian District, that accounted for 87.8%. The industry distribution was mostly mining industry and manufacturing industry, accounting for 61.1% and 31.6% respectively. Among the 8 910 cases of pneumoconiosis, 543 cases were lost in follow-up. A total of 8 367 patients were followed-up, with a follow-up rate of 93.9%. The mortality rate of patients who completed follow-up was 50.5%, and the mortality rate decreased with the increase of the stage of pneumoconiosis (P<0.01). The rate of adoring social security in the 4 138 surviving patients was 98.4%. Conclusion: The situation of prevention and treatment of pneumoconiosis in Zibo City is challenging. It is necessary to strengthen the special control of dust hazards in mining and manufacturing industries in key areas such as Zichuan District, Boshan District and Zhangdian District.
Résumé
Objective: To evaluate the utilization and influencing factors of whole lung lavage (WLL) for patients with pneumoconiosis. Methods: A total of 10 524 pneumoconiosis patients who sought medical treatment from 2018 to 2021 were selected as the research subjects using a combination of stratified random sampling and non-random sampling methods. The patients were from 27 provincial administrative regions of Chinese mainland (excluding Shanghai City, Tianjin City, Hainan Province and Tibet Autonomous Region). The effects of demographic and sociological characteristics, disease-related factors, and economic and social security status on WLL utilization were analyzed. Results: The WLL rate of pneumoconiosis patients was 17.8% (1 871/10 524). The main reason for promoting WLL in pneumoconiosis patients was “doctor's advice”, accounting for 65.4%； followed by “known-pneumoconiosis-patients had WLL” and “patient's recommendation”, accounting for 24.1% and 18.1%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, body mass index, smoking index, education level, survey area, source of patients, current employment status, nature of dust-exposed unit, stage of pneumoconiosis, type of pneumoconiosis, pneumoconiosis symptoms (coughing up phlegm, chest pain, dyspnea, joint pain), contraindications to WLL (tuberculosis, pulmonary heart disease), family annual income, medical insurance for urban employees, proportion of medical insurance reimbursement, disability benefits, and social assistance were the influencing factors of WLL utilization in pneumoconiosis patients (all P<0.05). Conclusion: A large proportion of pneumoconiosis patients used WLL. The influencing factors of WLL utilization included demographic and sociological characteristics, disease-related factors, economic and social security status, and more. It is necessary to protect the interests of pneumoconiosis patients, strengthen occupational health education and health promotion for pneumoconiosis patients, standardize the use of WLL in medical institutions, and make rational use of WLL.

Objective To analyze the survival status, distribution characteristics and social security of newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis patients in Guizhou Province from 2006 to 2021. Methods The newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis cases reported in Guizhou Province from 2006 to 2021 were collected from the “Occupational Diseases and Hazards Monitoring Information System” under “National Health Insurance Disease Prevention and Control Information System”. Telephone or face-to-face surveys were conducted to investigate these patients. Results A total of 12 413 newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis patients were reported in Guizhou Province from 2006 to 2021, with 11 192 cases included in the follow-up, and 10 631 cases were followed-up successfully. According to the follow-up study, 10 565 cases (accounting for 99.4%) were survived, and 66 cases (accounting for 0.6%) died. The number of pneumoconiosis showed an increasing trend followed by a sharp decline from 2006 to 2021, reaching its peak in 2016. The main industry of the newly pneumoconiosis cases was concentrated in the mining industry (accounting for 90.6%). The top three regions with surviving cases in the follow-up were Bijie City, Zunyi City, and Qiannan Prefecture, accounting for 34.0%, 25.4% and 12.0%, respectively. The main types of pneumoconiosis were coal workers' pneumoconiosis and silicosis, accounting for 67.1% and 30.8%, respectively. Most cases were in the age group of 50 to <60 years old, accounting for 59.1%, and the majority of the workers had worked in dusty environments for 5 to <25 years, accounting for 91.5%. In terms of social security, about 89.5% of cases were in the basic medical insurance for urban and rural residents which was the most popular social security. The employer's compensation rate was 67.7%, and the work-related injury insurance participation rate was 51.5%. Conclusion Pneumoconiosis cases in Guizhou Province exhibit significant regional disparities. It has a high concentration in the industry, a younger age profile, and limited social security coverage. It is necessary to strengthen the special management of dust and industry supervision in mining industry, intensify follow-up work for pneumoconiosis cases, reinforce the construction of pneumoconiosis rehabilitation station in key regions, and improve the quality of life of pneumoconiosis cases.

Objective: To understand the social security situation of current cases of pneumoconiosis in non-coal mine industries in Jiangsu Province, and to provide reference for the treatment and security work of pneumoconiosis patients. Methods: From January to October 2020, a follow-up survey was conducted on 4038 cases of pneumoconiosis in non-coal mine industries of the province from October 1949 to December 2019. The age, type of pneumoconiosis, industry type, and social security status of the patients were collected. Namely, work-related injury insurance, employer compensation, basic medical insurance for urban and rural residents, major illness insurance, etc. SPSS 19.0 was used for statistical description and analysis. Results: The cases of pneumoconiosis in non-coal mine industries in Jiangsu Province ranged in age from 36 to 105 (70.78±8.43) years old, and had been exposed to dust for 1 to 55 (19.27±9.29) years. Silicosis was the main form (3875 cases, 95.96%), and non-metallic mining and dressing industry was the main form (2618 cases, 64.83%). A total of 3991 cases (98.84%) of pneumoconiosis patients enjoyed social security, most of them were urban and rural residents with basic medical insurance (3624 cases, 89.75%), but there were still 47 patients without any social security. 15 cases (0.37%) enjoyed the subsistence allowance, with the monthly allowance amount ranging from 104 to 3960 yuan, with the average amount of 954.87 yuan/month. Conclusion: In Jiangsu Province, the proportion of pneumoconiosis patients in non-coal mine industries enjoying social security is relatively high, but there are still patients who do not enjoy any social security, and the difference in the amount of subsistence allowance is slightly larger. It is necessary to further improve the medical security of pneumoconiosis patients and improve their quality of life.

RESUMEN El sistema de salud en Chile ha logrado un gran desarrollo y cobertura nacional, pero mantiene limitaciones organizacionales que hacen necesaria una reforma estructural impostergable, debido a deficiencia de recursos y desempeño, con segmentación e inequidad. El programa gubernamental 2022-2026 plantea una reforma sustancial para crear un sistema universal de salud. Existen otras propuestas de reforma elaboradas por diversos programas y comisiones gubernamentales y centros de estudio, que aportan insumos útiles para contextualizar la propuesta gubernamental. Diversos tipos de modelos coexisten en el sistema de salud, pues el seguro público es de tipo seguridad social, el sistema asistencial público provee atención gratis a los asegurados públicos, y los seguros y proveedores asistenciales privados tienen modalidad de mercado. El sistema propuesto sería de tipo de sistema nacional de salud, en el que se combinan una modalidad predominante de servicio nacional de salud (tipo Beveridge) estatal con un sistema de seguridad social (tipo Bismarck) complementario, según la necesidad de financiamiento. Bajo un enfoque de evaluación de proyectos sociales, se revisaron los criterios de pertinencia (coherencia interna y consistencia externa) y de factibilidad política y económica de los contenidos del programa gubernamental. La propuesta tiene coherencia interna, aunque una consistencia externa limitada con el sistema político y económico predominante, y escasa capacidad del Estado para aumentar el financiamiento y la cobertura de empresas públicas. El contenido de la propuesta no permite identificar que existan suficientes condiciones facilitadoras para sustentar una factibilidad política y económica razonable de aprobación legal e implementación efectiva de la reforma propuesta.
ABSTRACT The health system in Chile is well developed, with broad national coverage. However, organizational limitations necessitate urgent structural reform due to a lack of resources and poor performance, with segmentation and inequity. The government's program for 2022-2026 proposes substantial reforms aimed at creating a universal health system. Other reform proposals formulated by various government programs and commissions, as well as think tanks, provide useful inputs to contextualize the government proposal. Different types of models coexist in the health system: public insurance is based on a social security model, the public system provides free care to the insured population, and private insurance and private care providers work on a market basis. The proposed system would function on the national health system model, combining a predominant national health service (Beveridge model) with a complementary social security system (Bismarck model), depending on the need for funding. With a focus on social project evaluation, the relevance (internal coherence and external alignment) and political and economic feasibility of the contents of the government program were reviewed. The proposal has internal coherence, but limited external alignment with the prevailing political and economic system, and little State capacity to increase the financing of public enterprises and their coverage. The contents of the proposal do not show sufficient facilitating conditions to reasonably suggest political and economic feasibility in terms of legal approval and effective implementation of the proposed reform.
RESUMO O sistema de saúde do Chile alcançou grande desenvolvimento e cobertura nacional, mas continua tendo limitações organizacionais que demandam uma reforma estrutural urgente, devido à insuficiência de recursos e do desempenho, com segmentação e iniquidades. O programa do governo para o período 2022-2026 propõe uma reforma substancial com vistas a criar um sistema de saúde universal. Há outras propostas de reforma, formuladas por diversos programas e comissões governamentais e centros de estudo, que fornecem contribuições úteis para contextualizar a proposta do governo. Diferentes tipos de modelos coexistem no sistema de saúde, pois o seguro público é do tipo previdenciário, o sistema assistencial público oferece atendimento gratuito às pessoas que têm seguro público, e os planos e operadoras de assistência privada seguem uma lógica de mercado. A proposta seria um sistema nacional de saúde que combinaria um serviço nacional de saúde predominantemente estatal (modelo de Beveridge) com um sistema de seguridade social (modelo de Bismarck) complementar, conforme a necessidade de financiamento. Com base em uma abordagem de avaliação de projetos sociais, foram analisados os critérios de relevância (coerência interna e consistência externa) e de viabilidade política e econômica do conteúdo do programa do governo. A proposta tem coerência interna, mas pouca consistência externa com o sistema político e econômico predominante, e o Estado tem capacidade limitada para aumentar o financiamento e a cobertura das empresas públicas. O conteúdo da proposta não permite identificar condições facilitadoras suficientes para sustentar um nível razoável de viabilidade política e econômica da aprovação legal e implementação efetiva da reforma proposta.

Resumo: Objetivamos realizar uma reflexão sobre os desafios enfrentados para a materialização da política social no Brasil. Embasamo-nos nas leituras de Rui Mauro Marini e Florestan Fernandes quanto ao entendimento da formação econômico-social brasileira. Em nossos resultados, destacamos que a condição dependente, com presença da autocracia burguesa, imprime a manutenção da superexploração da força de trabalho e o aviltamento das políticas sociais em detrimento da acumulação capitalista.
Abstract: We aim to carry out a reflection on the challenges faced for the materialization of social policy in Brazil. We base ourselves on the readings of Rui Mauro Marini and Florestan Fernandes in understanding the Brazilian socio-economic formation. In our results, we highlight that the dependent condition, with the presence of bourgeois autocracy, diminishes the maintenance of the super-exploitation of the work force, and in the debasement of social policy to the detriment of capitalist accumulation.
