“…30 The occurrence of aggressions was greater in individuals in the third and fourth decades of life. This finding, involving young adults, corroborates other studies conducted in Brazil 7,15,21,22 , Australia 24,25 , Nigeria 26 and India. 30 Individuals in this age group are regular visitors of bars and parties, have greater social interaction and are more likely to suffer aggression due to their physical vigor.…”

“…18 Several authors have shown that there is an increasing tendency of maxillofacial injuries to be related to violence. 1,6,7,9,11,19 In the present study, men were the main victims of violence, confirming results obtained in studies conducted in Brazil 7,10,15,[20][21][22][23] , Italy 1 , Greece 6 , India 8,14 , New Zealand 9 , the United Arab Emirates 11 , Australia 24,25 and Nigeria. 26 Among the factors that may explain these findings are the fact that men are exposed to risk factors, such as participation in events of violent nature (fights) 21 , alcohol consumption 9,24-27 and drugs.…”

Objectives: This cross-sectional study evaluated the prevalence of injuries in the maxillofacial complex of victims of violence attended by a Mobile Emergency Care Service in a municipality of Northeastern Brazil. Materials and Methods: A total of 2,347 records were evaluated from February 2014 to December 2016, of which 337(14.3%) corresponded to victims of violence. Information related to sociodemographic profile, associated factors and violence was collected. Data were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics, with significance level of 5%. Results: There was predominance of males (76.3%) and age group of 20-29 years (29.7%). Occurrences were more frequent at night (61.4%) and at the weekend (40.7%). Alcohol use was observed in 63.5% of victims and 16.0% reported illicit drug use, with predominance of crack (92.6%). The most prevalent type of aggression was physical violence (54.9%). The majority of victims presented a single lesion (72.7%) with predominance of laceration (80.4%). Cases of head and face injuries represented, respectively, 33.5% and 35.9% of aggressions. Face injuries showed association with gender (p=0.027) and number of injuries (p=0.042). Conclusions: The main victims of violence are young men who have used alcohol and illicit drugs. Physical aggression is the most frequent type of violence, with high occurrence of head and face injuries. Face injuries showed association with gender and number of lesions, both being more frequent among women.

“…As evidências mostram que, dentre os traumatismos maxilofaciais por violência, a região de maior prevalência foi a face, comprometendo os tecidos moles [3][4][5]15,16,21,22 . Estudos têm demonstrado que, nos tecidos moles, as lesões mais comuns foram na forma de contusões, abrasões 5,18,22,24 , equimose e escoriações 4,15 , localizadas a maioria no terço médio do rosto 22,24 ou no terço inferior 16 .…”

Purpose The present study aimed to assess whether there was an increase in physical aggression in women treated in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, through the mandatory quarantine. Methods Data from a cross-sectional study were collected and analyzed, from March 1 to December 31, 2020. Additionally, data from the same period the previous year were collected for comparison. Results Of the etiologies reviewed for 2020, physical aggression had the highest percentage increase (+ 4.9%) and was the only etiology that showed a significant difference ( p = 0.045). The mean age of the included patients was 34.05 years in 2019 and 33.97 in 2020, and most of the women had facial fractures, with nasal fractures being the most frequent, followed by jaw fractures. There was a significant increase ( p = 0.34) in the conservative treatment of fractures from 2019 (48.6%) to 2020 (71.7%) and a minor ( p = 0.088) increase in aggression toward intimate partners (2019, 40.9%; 2020, 63.9%). Conclusion Physical aggression against women increased during the period of mandatory social isolation that resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic. Health professionals, including emergency services professionals, must be trained to identify victims and refer them to specialized care.
