Assessment of premature mortality for noncommunicable diseases

Abstract

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.

Income-Related Mortality by Diabetes Mellitus

“…However, despite the male population has a lower occurrence and prevalence of DM, they, maybe, premature dying from DM acute complications, other diseases, and non-communicable diseases complications, especially external causes, in contrast to the female population, which has a higher life expectancy, that is, higher exposure to CNCDs, so this leads to a higher level of mortality by DM by the end of their old age, especially, by chronic diseases complications [16], as it may be noted in the same scenario and period study like this one, which found 231 premature deaths by DM, 130 (56.28%) in males and 101 (43.72%) in female [17] and in another study, also, at the same period and scenario as this one, it was found 348 deaths in elderly up to 70 years old, 218 (62.64%) in female and 130 (37.36%) in male [18].…”

“…Another relevant aspect is the world health managers´ perception, either national or local, on the burden of the DM and other CNCDs, on the one hand, DM may cause a significant number of deaths and has a socio-economic negative impact for the carrier and their families, the municipality, the state and country as it is evidenced in other studies [4,14,15,17,18], on the other hand, there is a minimal investment in order to face this and others CNCDs, they get only 2% in the allocation of resources, while other communicable diseases, such as HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria get 36% of health allocation resources [7].…”

“…However, vulnerable groups, such as individuals with low education are more strongly affected. Most deaths from NCDs are attributable to CSD, neoplasms, and chronic respiratory diseases (Istilli et al, 2020).…”

“…No Brasil, as DCNT correspondem a 72% das causas de morte em todas as faixas etárias, enquanto que na mortalidade prematura, esse percentual é de 72,6% (2) . As doenças cardiovasculares e as neoplasias foram as principais causas de mortalidade prematura em ambos os sexos, perfazendo 45,30% e 43,45% de óbitos, respectivamente, sendo que o sexo masculino apresentou maiores valores quando comparados ao feminino (3) .…”
