RESUMO
Abstract Introduction: Hypertension (HTN) is a public health problem. The prevalence and mortality rates are significantly higher in middle and low-income countries, such as Peru. This study aimed to determine the trend of mortality attributable to HTN for the 2005-2016 period in Peru. Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis based on death certificates provided by the Ministry of Health. We applied linear regression models to test the HTN mortality rate trend. Results: The age-standardized HTN mortality per 100,000 inhabitants decreased from 14.43 for the 2005 to 2010 period to 11.12 for the 2011 to 2016 period. The coast was the natural region with the highest decrease in mortality rate. Moreover, Tumbes, Callao, and Lambayeque were regions with the highest decline in mortality rate. Conclusion: The age-standardized mortality attributable to HTN decreased in Peru, with variations in both natural and political regions of the country.
Resumo Introdução: A hipertensão arterial (HA) é um problema de saúde pública. As taxas de prevalência e mortalidade são significativamente mais altas em países de média e baixa renda, como o Peru. O objetivo do estudo foi determinar a tendência de mortalidade atribuível à HA para o período de 2005-2016 no Peru. Métodos: Realizamos uma análise secundária com base em atestados de óbito fornecidos pelo Ministério da Saúde. Aplicamos modelos de regressão linear para testar a tendência da taxa de mortalidade por HA. Resultados: A mortalidade por HA padronizada para idade por 100.000 habitantes diminuiu de 14,43 no período de 2005 a 2010 para 11,12 no período de 2011 a 2016. O litoral foi a região natural com maior queda na taxa de mortalidade. Além disso, Tumbes, Callao e Lambayeque foram as regiões com maior declínio na taxa de mortalidade. Conclusão: A mortalidade padronizada para idade atribuível à HA diminuiu no Peru, com variações tanto em regiões naturais como políticas do país.

BACKGROUND: The association between international migration and mental health is conditioned to several factors, and discrimination may play a significant role. Currently, Peru is one of the principal Venezuelan migrant-receiving countries in Latin America. There are around one million Venezuelan refugees and migrants in the country. This study evaluates the association between self-perceived discrimination and mental health problems in Venezuelan population living in Peru. METHOD: We analyzed data from the Venezuelan Population Residing in Peru Survey 2018, a nationally representative urban sample aimed at collecting information on several dimensions of Venezuelan population wellbeing. We applied logistic regression models to assess the association between self-perceived discrimination and mental health problems. Moreover, we applied the propensity score matching method as a robustness check of our results. RESULTS: Of 9487 Venezuelans surveyed, 6806 included complete information. From this sample, 6.3% reported mental health problems related to fear, anger, anxiety, or stress. Logistic regression models showed that Venezuelans who perceived being discriminated against had 2.4 higher odds of presenting mental health problems than their non-discriminated counterparts. Moreover, propensity score matching models showed that Venezuelans who perceived being discriminated against increased by 3.5 percentage points their probability of presenting mental health problems compared to their non-discriminated counterparts. CONCLUSIONS: There is evidence that self-perceived discrimination is associated with mental health deterioration in Venezuelan migrants living in Peru. Our findings are relevant in the current geopolitical context and could be useful in the decision making processes in international health.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common disorder that causes high healthcare costs. There are limited epidemiological studies of this disorder in low- and middle-income countries. The aim of this study was to describe trends in the age-standardized incidence and mortality rates of AKI in Peru. Methods: We conducted an ecological study based on a secondary data sources of the basic cause of death from healthcare and death records obtained from establishments of the Ministry of Health of Peru for the period 2005-2016. The age-standardized incidence and mortality rates of AKI were described by region and trend effects were estimated by linear regression models. Results: During the period 2005-2016, 26,633 cases of AKI were reported nationwide. The age-standardized incidence rate of AKI per 100,000 people increased by 15.2%, from 10.5 (period 2005-2010) to 12.1 (period 2011-2016). During the period 2005-2016, 6,812 deaths due to AKI were reported, which represented 0.49% of all deaths reported for that period in Peru. The age-standardized mortality rate of AKI per 100,000 people decreased by 11.1%, from 2.7 (period 2005-2010) to 2.4 (period 2011-2016). The greatest incidence and mortality rates were observed in the age group older than 60 years. Conclusions: During the study period, incidence of AKI increased and mortality decreased, with heterogeneous variations among regions.
RESUMO Introdução: A lesão renal aguda (LRA) é um distúrbio comum que causa altos custos para a saúde. Existem estudos epidemiológicos limitados sobre esse distúrbio em países de baixa e média renda. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever as tendências nas taxas de incidência e mortalidade padronizadas por idade da LRA no Peru. Métodos: Realizamos um estudo ecológico com base em fontes de dados secundárias da causa básica de morte de registros de saúde e óbito obtidos de estabelecimentos do Ministério da Saúde do Peru no período de 2005 a 2016. A incidência padronizada por idade e as taxas de mortalidade por LRA foram descritas por região, e os efeitos de tendência foram estimados por modelos de regressão linear. Resultados: No período de 2005 a 2016, 26.633 casos de LRA foram relatados em todo o país. A taxa de incidência padronizada de LRA por idade por 100.000 pessoas aumentou 15,2%, de 10,5 (período de 2005 a 2010) para 12,1 (período de 2011 a 2016). Durante o período de 2005 a 2016, foram relatadas 6.812 mortes por LRA, o que representou 0,49% de todas as mortes relatadas para esse período no Peru. A taxa de mortalidade por LRA padronizada por idade por 100.000 pessoas diminuiu 11,1%, de 2,7 (período de 2005 a 2010) para 2,4 (período de 2011 a 2016). As maiores taxas de incidência e mortalidade foram observadas na faixa etária acima de 60 anos. Conclusões: Durante o período do estudo, a incidência de LRA aumentou e a mortalidade diminuiu, com variações heterogêneas na epidemiologia entre as regiões.

Objetivo: Identificar factores asociados a calidad percibida de atención en la población adulta afiliada al Seguro Social en Salud (EsSalud). Material y métodos: Analizamos la Encuesta Nacional Socioeconómica de Acceso a la Salud de los Asegurados de EsSalud. La calidad percibida fue evaluada en consultorio externo, hospitalización y emergencias. Reportamos razones de medias ajustadas (RMa) estimadas mediante regresión de Poisson múltiple. Resultados: Estar empleado (RMa=0,98; IC95% 0,96-0,99), no conocer los servicios que brinda EsSalud (RMa=0,97; IC95% 0,95-1,00), no recibir información sobre los derechos como usuarios (RMa=0,95; IC95% 0,93-0,98), valorar como bajo el nivel de accesibilidad al EESS (RMa=0,97; IC95% 0,95-0,99) y no sentirse cómodo en el EESS al que acude (RM=0,92; IC95% 0,91-0,94) fueron factores asociados a menor puntaje de calidad percibida en consultorio externo. En hospitalización, tener entre 40-59 años (RMa=0,93; IC95% 0,88-0,97), contar con un índice de riqueza bajo (RMa=0,92; IC95% 0,87-0,97), no haber recibido información sobre los derechos como usuarios (RMa=0,90; IC95% 0,84-0,95) y no sentirse cómodos en el EESS (RMa=0,92; IC95% 0,89-0,96) se asociaron a menor puntuación de calidad. En emergencia, no sentirse cómodo en el EESS (RMa=0,89; IC95% 0,93-1,00) fue el único factor asociado a una menor puntuación de calidad percibida. Conclusiones: Identificamos factores relativos a los usuarios y a la oferta de servicios independientemente asociados a calidad percibida de atención, los cuales pueden ser considerados por los tomadores de decisiones para la mejor gestión de EsSalud.
Objetive: To identify factors associated with perceived quality of care in the adult population affiliated with Social Security Health (EsSalud) Material and methods: We analyzed the National Socioeconomic Survey of Access to Health of the EsSalud Insured. Perceived quality of health care was evaluated in ambulatory care, hospitalization and emergency medical services. We reported adjusted ratios of means (RMa) estimated by multiple Poisson regression. Results: Being employed (RMa=0.98; IC95% 0.96-0.99), not knowing the services provided by EsSalud (RMa=0.97; IC95% 0.95-1.00), not receiving information about right to health (RMa=0.95; IC95% 0.93-0.98), perceiving as low the level of accessibility to the health facility (RMa=0.97; IC95% 0.95-0.99) and not feeling comfortable in the health facility of EsSalud (RM=0.92;IC95% 0.91-0.94) were factors associated with lower scores of perceived quality in ambulatory care. In hospitalization, being between 40-59 years old (RMa=0.93; IC95% 0.88-0.97), having a low wealth index (RMa=0.92; IC95% 0.87-0.97), not having received information about right to health (RMa=0.90; IC95%0.84-0.95) and not feeling comfortable in the health facility of EsSalud (RMa=0.92; IC95% 0.89-0.96) were associated with lower quality score. In emergency, not feeling comfortable in the health facility of EsSalud (RMa=0.89; IC95% 0.93-1.00) was the only factor associated with a lower perceived quality score. Conclusions: We identified factors related to users and service offerings independently associated with perceived quality of care, which can be considered by decision makers for better management of EsSalud.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing public health problem and an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Disparities in CKD may be related to social determinants and health inequalities in low- and middle-income countries. This study determined how social determinants of health influence trends in the prevalence and mortality of CKD in Peru. METHODS: This was an ecological study based on a secondary analysis of health care and death records obtained from the Ministry of Health of Peru for the period 2010-2016. The standardized prevalence and mortality rates of CKD were descriptively reported using geospatial exploratory analysis. We also determined the association with social determinants of health according to the domains suggested by Healthy People 2020. RESULTS: In the studied period, CKD prevalence increased by 300% and was associated with the health insurance coverage rate (ß=5.9 [95% CI 0.82 to 10.92]), proportion of people with a secondary education level (ß=11.4 [95% CI 1.94 to 20.93]), mean age (ß=-10.7 [95% CI -19.33 to -2.12]), monetary poverty rate (ß=-2.2 [95% CI -3.88 to -0.60]) and gross domestic product per capita (ß=-63.2 [95% CI -117.81 to -8.52]). The standardized mortality decreased by 10% and was associated with mean age (ß=-0.6 [95% CI -1.22 to -0.06]) and the proportion of people with a primary education level (ß=-0.5 [95% CI -0.9 to -0.05]). CONCLUSIONS: During the period 2010-2016, the prevalence of CKD increased and the mortality associated with CKD decreased. The observed changes were associated with some social determinants of health, such as increased health coverage and education. The health system of Peru must be prepared to take on the challenge.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the presence of a gender gap in the scientific production among Peruvian physicians and analyze either gap is associated with the presence of observable factors or the presence of prejudices against female physicians. METHODS: We analyzed data from the National Survey of User Satisfaction in Health 2016, a nationally representative survey that collected information about medical professionals working in health institutions in Peru. The outcome of interest was the number of publications in indexed journals. We estimated the gender gap in scientific production using the Oaxaca-Blinder (OB) decomposition method. RESULTS: From the 2216 physicians surveyed, 252 reported published at least one article in an indexed journal. From physicians with scientific production, 37.7% were women. The analysis of OB decomposition showed a gap of 2.11 indexed publications, disfavoring female physicians (p<0.01). Likewise, the explained component was 1.36 publications, representing 64.5% of the total gap (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: There is a gender gap in the number of publications in indexed journals among Peruvian physicians. This gap is mainly explained by observable factors, such as the years of medical practice, being an accredited researcher and being a professor.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between social determinants of health and trends in the prevalence of hypertension among patients of the Peruvian Ministry of Health 2007-2016. METHODS: We conducted an ecological study with secondary data sources using health care and death records obtained from the Peruvian Ministry of Health, data from the Peruvian National Household Survey and data from the Regional Information System for Decision Making. We determined the standardised prevalence of hypertension at national and region level, conducted a geospatial exploratory analysis at region level, and applied generalised linear mixed models to evaluate the association between social determinants of health and the prevalence of HT, according to the domains suggested by Healthy People 2020. RESULTS: The prevalence of hypertensive patients of the Peruvian Ministry of Health increased from 966.8/100 000 in 2007 to 1619.1/100 000 in 2016. The prevalence of hypertension rose by 17.7/100 000 per 1% increase of insurance coverage and by 2.2/100 000 per 1% increase in the number of hospitals. In contrast, it decreased by 12.3/100 000 per 1% increase of the poverty rate, by 9.8/100 000 per 1% increase of the proportion of people with native language, by 3.6/100 000 per 1% increase of GDP per capita and by 3/100 000 per 1% increase in the number of local health centres. CONCLUSIONS: The growing trend of HT prevalence in Peru is directly associated with insurance coverage and number of hospitals, and inversely associated with poverty rate, proportion of people with native language, GDP per capita and number of local health centres.
OBJECTIF: Evaluer l'association entre les déterminants sociaux de la santé et les tendances de la prévalence de l'hypertension chez les patients du Ministère de la Santé du Pérou 2007-2016. MÉTHODES: Nous avons mené une étude écologique avec des sources de données secondaires utilisant des données de santé et de décès obtenues du ministère péruvien de la santé, des données de l'enquête nationale sur les ménages péruviens et du système d'information régional pour la prise de décision. Nous avons déterminé la prévalence standardisée de l'hypertension (HT) aux niveaux national et régional, mené une analyse exploratoire géospatiale au niveau régional et appliqué des modèles mixtes linéaires généralisés pour évaluer l'association entre les déterminants sociaux de la santé et la prévalence de l'HT, selon les domaines suggérés par Healthy People 2020. RÉSULTATS: La prévalence des patients HT du Ministère de la Santé du Pérou est passée de 966,8/100.000 en 2007 à 1.619,1/100.000 en 2016. La prévalence de l'HT a augmenté de 17,7/100.000 pour 1% d'augmentation de la couverture d'assurance et de 2,2/100.000 pour 1% d'augmentation du nombre d'hôpitaux. En revanche, elle a diminué de 12,3/100.000 pour 1% d'augmentation du taux de pauvreté, de 9,8/100.000 pour 1% d'augmentation de la proportion de personnes de la langue locale, de 3,6/1000.000 pour 1% d'augmentation du PIB par habitant et de 3/100.000 pour 1% d'augmentation du nombre de centres de santé locaux. CONCLUSIONS: La tendance croissante de la prévalence de l'HT au Pérou est directement liée à la couverture d'assurance et au nombre d'hôpitaux et inversement associée au taux de pauvreté, à la proportion de personnes de la langue locale, au PIB par habitant et au nombre de centres de santé locaux.

OBJECTIVE.: To describe the trends in health insurance coverage (HIC) in Peru during the period 2009-2017 and evaluate associations with demographic, social and economic factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS.: We carried out a secondary data-analysis from the Peruvian National Household Survey. For each year, we estimated the global HIC, for the Integral Health Insurance (SIS) and the Social Security system (EsSalud). In addition, we performed a trend analysis. For 2009 (Universal Health Insurance Act), 2013 (health care reform act) and 2017, we used a polytomous variable for the insurance type (SIS/EsSalud/Non-affiliated). We performed logistic multinomial regressions to estimate relative prevalence ratios (RPR) and their 95% CI with correction for complex sampling. RESULTS.: We observed an increasing trend in the global HIC (2009:60.5%; 2013:65.5%; 2017:76.4%), SIS coverage (2009:34%; 2013:35.4%; 2017:47%) and EsSalud coverage (2009:22.8%; 2013:26.4%; 2017:26.3%). Multinomial logistic regressions showed that being a woman increased the likelihood to be affiliated to the SIS (RPR= 2009:1.64 and 2017:1.53), while people between 18 and 39 years old, living in Lima Metropolitan area under non-poverty conditions reduced the likelihood to be affiliated to the SIS (RPR= 2009:0.16 and 2017:0.31; 2009:0.17 and 2017:0.37; 2009:0.51 and 2017:0.53; respectively). Furthermore, being a woman, 65 years old or over, living in urban Lima, and under non-poverty conditions increased the likelihood of being affiliated with the EsSalud (RPR= 2013:1.12 and 2017:1.24; 2013:1.32 and 2017:1.34; 2009:2.18 and 2017:2.08; 2009:2.14 and 2017:2.54; 2009:3.57 and 2017:2.53; respectively). CONCLUSIONS.: HIC has increased during the period 2009-2017. However, the characteristics of those affiliated are different between the various types of health insurance.
OBJETIVO.: Describir la evolución de la cobertura de aseguramiento en salud (CAS) en Perú para el periodo 2009-2017 y evaluar los principales factores demográficos, sociales y económicos asociados. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS.: Realizamos un análisis secundario de la Encuesta Nacional de Hogares. Para cada año estimamos la CAS global, del Seguro Integral de Salud (SIS) y del Seguro Social en Salud (EsSalud), y realizamos pruebas de tendencias anuales. Para los años 2009 (Ley de Aseguramiento Universal en Salud), 2013 (reforma del sector salud) y 2017, construimos una variable politómica del tipo de aseguramiento (SIS/EsSalud/No asegurado) y estimamos razones relativas de prevalencia (RRP) con intervalos de confianza (IC) al 95% mediante modelos logísticos multinomiales para muestras complejas. RESULTADOS.: Observamos un incremento en la CAS global (2009: 60,5%; 2013: 65,5%; 2017: 76,4%), en el SIS (2009: 34%; 2013: 35,4%; 2017: 47%) y en EsSalud (2009: 22,8%; 2013: 26,4%; 2017: 26,3%). Observamos que ser mujer aumentó la posibilidad de afiliación al SIS (RRP=2009: 1,64 y 2017: 1,53), mientras que tener entre 18 y 39 años, residir Lima Metropolitana y ser no pobre redujeron esa posibilidad (RRP=2009: 0,16 y 2017: 0,31; 2009: 0,17 y 2017: 0,37; 2009: 0,51 y 2017: 0,53; respectivamente). Por su parte, ser mujer, tener más de 65 años, ser del ámbito urbano, residir en Lima Metropolitana y ser no pobre aumentó la probabilidad de estar afiliados a EsSalud (RRP=2013: 1,12 y 2017: 1,24; 2013: 1,32 y 2017: 1,34; 2009: 2,18 y 2017: 2,08; 2009: 2,14 y 2017: 2,54; 2009: 3,57 y 2017: 2,53; respectivamente). CONCLUSIONES.: La CAS ha incrementado durante el periodo 2009-2017. No obstante, las características de la población asegurada difieren de acuerdo con el tipo de seguro.

In recent decades, the number of women pursuing careers in health has significantly increased. However, the physician labor market is still characterized by gender differences regarding payment. Using a nationally representative Peruvian sample of health providers (3,219 male and 1,063 female physicians), we estimated the gender gap in the likelihood of earning high wages for physicians and decomposed this gap in a proportion related to differences in individual characteristics (e.g. specialty, labor experience), and a residual proportion related to differences in returns to these characteristics. Our main results reveal that male physicians have on average an 81% higher likelihood of earning high salaries (monthly earning level > 5,000 PEN) relative to their female counterparts. Further, the main proportion of this gap is associated to the unexplained component (among 57% and 77%, according to the model specification), which may be associated to unobservable characteristics and discrimination in the Peruvian labor market.

For 2009 (Universal Health Insurance Act), 2013 (health care reform act) and 2017, we used a polytomous variable for the insurance type (SIS/EsSalud/Non-affiliated). We performed logistic multinomial regressions to estimate relative prevalence ratios (RPR) and their 95% CI with correction for complex sampling. Results. We observed an increasing trend in the global HIC (2009:60.5%; 2013:65.5%; 2017:76.4%), SIS coverage (2009:34%; 2013:35.4%; 2017:47%) and EsSalud coverage (2009:22.8%; 2013:26.4%; 2017:26.3%). Multinomial logistic regressions showed that being a woman increased the likelihood to be affiliated to the SIS (RPR= 2009:1.64 and 2017:1.53), while people between 18 and 39 years old, living in Lima Metropolitan area under non-poverty conditions reduced the likelihood to be affiliated to the SIS (RPR= 2009:0.16 and 2017:0.31; 2009:0.17 and 2017:0.37; 2009:0.51 and 2017:0.53; respectively). Furthermore, being a woman, 65 years old or over, living in urban Lima, and under non-poverty conditions increased the likelihood of being affiliated with the EsSalud (RPR= 2013:1.12 and 2017:1.24; 2013:1.32 and 2017:1.34; 2009:2.18 and 2017:2.08; 2009:2.14 and 2017:2.54; 2009:3.57 and 2017:2.53; respectively). Conclusions. HIC has increased during the period 2009-2017. However, the characteristics of those affiliated are different between the various types of health insurance.

Abstract: In recent decades, the number of women pursuing careers in health has significantly increased. However, the physician labor market is still characterized by gender differences regarding payment. Using a nationally representative Peruvian sample of health providers (3,219 male and 1,063 female physicians), we estimated the gender gap in the likelihood of earning high wages for physicians and decomposed this gap in a proportion related to differences in individual characteristics (e.g. specialty, labor experience), and a residual proportion related to differences in returns to these characteristics. Our main results reveal that male physicians have on average an 81% higher likelihood of earning high salaries (monthly earning level > 5,000 PEN) relative to their female counterparts. Further, the main proportion of this gap is associated to the unexplained component (among 57% and 77%, according to the model specification), which may be associated to unobservable characteristics and discrimination in the Peruvian labor market.
Resumen: En décadas recientes, el número de mujeres realizando su carrera en el ámbito de salud se ha incrementado significativamente. No obstante, el mercado laboral de los médicos está todavía caracterizado por diferencias de género respecto a los salarios. Utilizando una muestra peruana nacionalmente representativa de proveedores de salud (3.219 hombres y 1.063 mujeres médicos), estimamos la brecha de género en la probabilidad para los médicos de ganar sueldos altos y la desglosamos según los porcentajes vinculados a las diferencias relacionadas con las características individuales (p.ej. especialidad, experiencia laboral) y un porcentaje residual vinculado a las diferencias relacionadas con estas características. Nuestros resultados principales revelaron que los médicos hombres contaban en promedio con un 81% mayor probabilidad de ganar sueldos más altos (nivel mensual de renta > 5.000 PEN) frente a sus compañeras mujeres. Asimismo, gran parte del porcentaje de esta brecha está asociado a un componente inexplicable (entre un 57% y un 77%, según la especificación del modelo), lo que tal vez esté relacionado con las características no observables y la discriminación en el mercado laboral peruano.
Resumo: Nas últimas décadas, o número de mulheres atuando em carreiras da saúde aumentou significativamente. Contudo, o mercado de trabalho médico continua caracterizado por diferenças de gênero nos salários. Usando uma amostra nacional representativa de profissionais da saúde peruanos (3.219 médicos e 1.063 médicas), nós estimamos a diferença de gênero na probabilidade de receber altos salários para médicos e decompomos essa diferença em uma proporção relacionada a diferenças em características individuais (p.ex.: especialidade, experiência profissional) e uma proporção residual relacionada a diferenças de retornos dessas características. Nossos resultados principais revelam que os médicos têm, em média, uma probabilidade 81% maior de receber salários altos (nível de rendimentos mensais > 5.000 PEN) em relação às médicas. Adicionalmente, a principal proporção dessa diferença está associada ao componente não-explicado (entre 57% e 77%, de acordo com a especificação do modelo), o que pode estar associado a características não-observadas e discriminação no mercado de trabalho peruano.
