“…A presença de doenças cardiovasculares (DCV) em agricultores expostos a agrotóxicos mostra-se um efeito agressivo, conforme evidenciado nesta pesquisa, na qual 65% dos participantes relataram algum comprometimento. As DCVs, aparecem igualmente em outras pesquisas que associam práticas insalubres, manuseio dos agroquímicos, reveladas por infarto do miocárdio, insuficiência cardíaca congestiva, acidente vascular encefálico e arritmias induzidas pelas intoxicações agudas (Sekhotha, Monyeki, & Sibuyi, 2016;Wahab, 2016). Em relação ao percentual de 58,6% dos participantes da pesquisa relatar ser hipertenso, esse resultado vai ao encontro de outros estudos que apontam o referido comprometimento, característico de população exposta aos agroquímicos (Menegat & Fontana, 2010;Moreira, Oliveira, Muzi, Cunha, Brito, & Luiz, 2015).…”

Objetivo: O objetivo do presente trabalho foi relacionar os transtornos mentais comuns em agricultores com o uso de agrotóxicos, sintomas físicos, psíquicos e doenças preexistentes. Método: Estudo transversal, descritivo e analítico, com 361 agricultores que utilizam agrotóxicos. Os instrumentos de coleta de dados foram: SRQ-20 e formulário de identificação, dados sociodemográficos e clínicos. Resultados: 173 (47,9%) participantes da pesquisa apresentaram transtorno mental comum, sintomas físicos, emocionais e doenças preexistentes. Existe relação estatisticamente significativa (p<0,01) entre tempo de agricultura, exposição, doenças preexistentes com os transtornos mentais comuns. Conclusão: A utilização de agrotóxicos compromete a saúde física e psíquica do agricultor.

Background: Over recent decades, Brazil’s health indicators have improved; however, access to the country’s health services is not homogeneous, with urban areas being better served than rural areas. The general objective of this work is to identify the influence of rural residence and other factors on the incidence of chronic spine problems, hypertension, and elevated levels of cholesterol in Brazil using the last Brazilian National Health Survey (NHS - 2013)) definitions and data. The analysis provided by this study contributes data that can be used to determine the probability of these three conditions occurring in Brazil and identifies the most vulnerable rural groups as defined by diet, physical activity, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Method: A logit model was estimated to identify the influence of the variables rural residence, sex, age, race, education, health insurance, work, Body Mass Index (BMI), consumption habits, and region of residence on the chronic conditions analyzed. Results: Results show that rural residents are 5.8% more likely to have chronic spine problems and 0.9% less likely to have hypertension than urban residents. The incidence of all conditions was lower in men than women. The Body Mass Index (BMI) value also influences the chance of having the conditions studied. Individuals with at least a secondary education were less affected by the analyzed conditions than those less educated. There were regional differences in these conditions’ incidence, mainly chronic spine problems and hypertension. Conclusions: The variables BMI, gender, and years of alcohol consumption had significance in all diseases analyzed. To correct underreporting issues, public policies should be directed to expand rural health services. Additionally, actions should be taken to raise the public's awareness of the effects of obesity and alcohol consumption on health.

“…There is evidence that, by underreporting, the prevalence of diseases is higher in rural than in urban areas. Many factors could be related to health worsening, including restricted access to health system and work economic dependence, which subjects workers to long working days, frequent physical efforts, low income, assiduity even at physical adversities, and long term labor (increasing age group for this population) (7). For the International Labour Organization (ILO) rural work is of great significance, and more dangerous than other activities.…”

Objective Evaluate the propensity of cardiovascular risk in rural workers and, through the Framingham Risk Score (FRS), relate this risk with the classification of Body Mass Index (BMI). Subjects and methods This study is characterized as descriptive and exploratory, with the participation of 138 subjects, ranging between 25-73 years old. Clinical and laboratory analysis of the risk factors contained in the FRS were performed, in addition to the determination of BMI, blood pressure, smoking and physical inactivity. Results The procedures indicated a low risk of a coronary event in 10 years with 70.3% of the population. In contrast, 88.4% of the subjects were overweight. It was evidenced a risk improvement as the BMI increased, since 96.4% of high-risk cases were overweight or obese. Conclusion Results suggest larger prevalence of intermediary or high FRS for women with higher BMI, which was not observed in men.
