Mortalidade de adolescentes em área urbana da região Sudeste do Brasil, 1984-1993

Analisa-se a mortalidade de adolescentes no Município de Botucatu, Estado de São Paulo, Brasil, no período de 1984 a 1993, segundo dois subgrupos (10 a 14 e 15 a 19 anos), sexo, ocupação e causas de óbito. Os dados de óbitos foram obtidos no Setor de Estatística do Centro de Saúde-Escola. As estimativas populacionais foram calculadas com base nos censos demográficos. Observou-se variação dos coeficientes de mortalidade nos diferentes anos e maior mortalidade no grupo masculino de 15 a 19 anos, atingindo tanto estudantes como trabalhadores. Houve predomínio de causas externas de mortalidade, principalmente acidentes de trânsito e ferimento por arma de fogo, exigindo averigüação de seus determinantes e o desenvolvimento de programas de saúde destinados aos adolescentes, suas famílias e à sociedade, considerando-se que as causas de morte são evitáveis e preveníveis.

Perfil epidemiológico da raiva na região Noroeste do Estado de São Paulo no período de 1993 a 2007

The epidemiology of animal rabies in the region of Aracatuba, in the northwest of São Paulo State, from 1993 to 2007, is described according to the results from diagnoses made at laboratories in the region, using the fluorescent antibody and mouse inoculation tests. Out of 10,579 samples analyzed, 4.9% were positive (518/10,579). Dogs accounted for 67% of the cases (346/518) and these occurred between 1993 and 1997. Among the other positive samples, 16% (84/518) were in cattle and 9.7% (50/518) were in bats. Among the 42 municipalities in the region, 23 (55%) presented at least one rabies-positive case, while 13 of them had cases in bats. Three distinct cycles of rabies were identified in the northwestern region of the State of São Paulo: the urban cycle characterized predominantly by canine rabies (1993 to 1997); and the aerial and rural cycles starting in 1998, with predominance of cases in bats in urban areas and in herbivores.
