Objectives: to analyze premature mortality and Potential Years of Life Lost by noncommunicable diseases in a city in the countryside of São Paulo from 2010 to 2014. Methods: ecological study of temporal tendency, using secondary source. For analysis, the premature mortality coefficient and the Potential Years of Life Lost indicator were used. Results: males had the highest premature mortality rate due to cardiovascular disease, with 213.04 deaths per 100 thousand inhabitants, followed by neoplasms, with 188.44. In women, there was an inversion with 134.22 deaths from cancer and 110.71 deaths from cardiovascular disease. Regarding Potential Years of Life Lost, males had an average of 12.19 years lost by death and females of 13.45 years lost. Conclusions: the results reinforce the need to increase public health prevention and promotion policies to reduce premature deaths, especially among men.
OBJECTIVE: To describe diabetes mellitus mortality according to sex and age in a municipality in the state of São Paulo, in the period ranging from 2010 to 2014. METHODS: This was a temporal series ecological study carried out in Ribeirão Preto, state of São Paulo. The data was comprised of information on 583 deaths of Ribeirão Preto residents – regardless of the place of death – from 2010 to 2014. The data source was the electronic system of the Epidemiological Surveillance of the Municipal Health Department of the evaluated municipality. Sex, age group, premature death and year of death were chosen as variables. Subsequently, age-standardized mortality rates were calculated using the World Health Organization’s standard population, in addition to total and average per death potential years of life lost. RESULTS: Mortality due to diabetes mellitus in the municipality increased during the studied period. There was a higher occurrence of female deaths, especially in the ≥ 80 years age group. The highest rates of age-standardized mortality were male. For both sexes, there was an annual mean increase of 9% in premature mortality during the studied period. Diabetes decreased life expectancy by 10 years. CONCLUSIONS: As a diagnosis of local health care, the significant increase in agestandardized mortality rates, premature mortality and potential years of life lost in the studied municipality point to the need for improvements in health promotion and disease prevention measures. It is our hope that the results presented in this study contribute to the monitoring of mortality rates in the coming years.
Objetivo: identificar as evidências científicas disponíveis sobre os determinantes sociais da saúde, relacionados à mortalidade prematura por doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Método: trata-se de um estudo de revisão da literatura utilizando o método scoping review, o qual foi realizado no período de 10 de abril a 12 de julho de 2020, nas seguintes bases de dados:Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health literature (CINAHL), e Web of Science e nas bibliotecas Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS). Foram utilizadas as etapas de identificação e seleção dos estudos; mapeamento dos dados; confrontação e discussão dos resultados. Resultados: evidenciou-se, pelos 13 artigos analisados,que a mortalidade prematura por doença crônica não transmissível está fortemente relacionada aos determinantes sociais da saúde, com destaque ao sexo masculino, escolaridade e renda. Conclusão: os resultados impõem novos desafios aos profissionais de saúde para implementação de políticas públicas e contribuem para a vigilância em saúde, em relação a mortalidade prematura por doenças crônicas não transmissíveis.
