“…In 2006 there were 180,000 people in the country using antiretrovirals, with the expenses on these medications standing at US$400 million 3 . Several authors indicate that today the majority of AIDS deaths are related to the non-adherence to treatment and delayed diagnosis, and that some biological, behavioral, and socioeconomic factors, such as gender, age, income, education level, and HIV exposure category, can influence the first two conditions and thus may be associated with such deaths [4][5][6][7] . The implementation of Law N 9313/96, which provides AIDS patients free access to drugs for AIDS treatment, associated with the advent of highly effective antiretroviral therapy, has led to a rapid reduction of mortality rates from AIDS.…”

Introduction:In the jurisdiction of Brasília, Brazil, significant reductions in mortality rates and lethality resulting from acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) were observed shortly after the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy. In recent years, however, the decline of these rates has not been as significant. Non-adherence to treatment and delayed diagnosis appear to be the main factors that increase the risk of death from AIDS. Behavioral, socioeconomic, and biological factors could also be associated with increased risk of death due to AIDS. This study aimed to identify which of these factors were associated with deaths from AIDS in Brasília. Methods: A case-control study was undertaken using the data recorded in the Information System of Notifiable Diseases. Cases consisted of AIDS deaths occurring in 2007, residing in Brasília, and over 12 years of age. Controls consisted of AIDS patients who did not die until December 31 2007, also residing in Brasília, and over 12 years of age. For each group, frequency and proportion tables for the variables were prepared. The statistical association of each factor in isolation with the occurrence of the deaths was verified through a model of multivariate analysis using logistic regression. Results: The factors that were associated with an increased risk of death were intravenous drug use, age 50 years or more, and residing in a region whose residents have low per capita income. Conclusions: We identified factors associated with death due to AIDS that can guide health planning.

“…10 The analysis of stable outpatients with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) with a mean age of 36 years identified a mortality rate of 24.2% in eight years of follow-up. 11 Even diseases sometimes regarded as lower risk compared with coronary disease were shown to be more aggressive, such as outpatients …”

Background:The long-term prognostic implications of stable coronary artery disease (CAD) in young patients are currently unknown. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prognosis of young adult patients diagnosed with stable CAD who were treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and followed for up to ten years. Methods: The study population consisted of young patients (age below the 10 th percentile) from a group of 1,394 consecutive patients treated for stable CAD using the percutaneous approach. The patients' characteristics were prospectively collected. After the procedure, outpatient follow-up was conducted, including the analysis of the electronic medical records and telephone contact, whenever required. The primary outcome was overall mortality, and the secondary outcome was cardiovascular mortality. Results: A total of 140 patients were selected, with a mean age of 43.7 ± 4 years (ranging from 26 to 48 years), who were predominantly males (76.4%). Diabetes mellitus was present in approximately one fifth of the patients, and half of them had a previous myocardial infarction. Patients were followed for an average of 94.6 ± 36.2 months, and the overall mortality after ten years was 6%, with a cardiac mortality of 5.3%. All patients who died had a successful index procedure, and only one of the cases did not have a previous myocardial

“…Ainda há que se aproximar muito da realidade dos sujeitos e tornar a prevenção do HIV/AIDS uma pauta interessante para todos, independentemente da capacidade escolar 24 . Para tal, iniciativas populares que partam do interesse da comunidade, que liguem a doença à vida real e tornem os sujeitos proativos, participativos no controle social do SUS, responsáveis pelo autocuidado e autônomos em prol de sua vida e da saúde dos seus pares são interessantes e podem mostrar resultados positivos 25 . A baixa escolarização representou um fator diretamente associado à redução do tempo de vida, quando comparada a sujeitos mais escolarizados.…”
