Introduction: Cuiaba presents a huge number of cases of dengue in the endemic periods as well as in the cyclical epidemics. The aim of the study was to analyze the intra-urban differentials of the incidence in 2007 and 2008 relating them with socio--economical and environmental life conditions. Method: study of ecological approach using secondary data. The characterization of the life conditions was gotten from the Demographic Census (IBGE, 2000) and the epidemiologic data from the Surveillance National System (SINAN). The socio-economical index was based on school level and income of the head of family and overcrowding; the socioambiental index used information about sanitation and proportion of precarious domiciles. The variables were classified in quintis and points were attributed for each one. The score for neighborhood was resultant of the addition of the points for each variable. The neighborhoods had been classified in stratus of risk from the combination of results of the two indexes. Results: The incidence was lesser in stratus of average and low risk and very high in the stratum of the highest risk but was bigger then expected in the stratum classified at minimum risk indicating dissociation between life conditions and occurrence of the illness. Conclusion: Higher incidences of the dengue fever in Cuiaba in 2007 and 2008 have been observed in places with precarious conditions of sanitation and inhabited by populations with lesser level of income and education level but there is no linear correlation between life conditions and incidence.

“…Several variables have been used to identify the factors associated with dengue and, consequently, to provide a better basis for new proposals regarding the control of the disease. 14,15,24 The variable percentage of households connected with the general sanitary network explained the total variability of the average incidence rate of dengue in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro. The improvement in the sewage system has a great impact on the occurrence of infection and morbidity by many diseases.…”

“…For example, it did not include other possible variables related to the disease transmission, like water supply regularity, 18 the vector's spatial density, productivity of oviposition containers, building infestation rate. 9,15 Due to irregular water supply, the population stores water in recipients that may become oviposition containers of the mosquito. The diffi culty in accessing data on the vector limits its correlation with data on the disease.…”

“…This situation may be a refl ection of the assessment of the information of collected data. 9,15 The information obtained from secondary data by means of the demographic census hides the great intrinsic variability, when aggregated to describe large regions. Thus, spatial aggregation may infl uence the results related to the variables, being less discriminating.…”

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the dengue epidemic in relation to the socioeconomic context according to geographical areas. METHODS:An ecological study was conducted in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro (Southeastern Brazil), in areas delimited as neighborhoods, based on information about notifi ed dengue cases concerning residents in the municipality. The average incidence rate of dengue was calculated between the epidemiological weeks: 48 th of 2001 and 20 th of 2002. The occurrence of dengue was correlated with socioeconomic variables through Pearsons' correlation coeffi cient. Moran's global and local indexes were used to assess the spatial auto-correlation between dengue and the variables that signifi cantly correlated with the disease. The multiple linear regression model and the conditional auto-regression spatial model were used to analyze the relationship between dengue and socioeconomic context. RESULTS:The neighborhoods located in the west zone of the municipality presented high rates of average dengue incidence. The variables presenting signifi cant correlation were: percentage of households connected with the general sanitary network, households with washing machines, and population density per urban area. Moran's spatial auto-correlation index revealed spatial dependence between dengue and the selected variables. The utilized models indicated percentage of households connected with the general sanitary network as the sole variable signifi cantly associated with the disease. The residual fi gures in both models revealed signifi cant spatial auto-correlation, with a positive Moran Index (p<0.001) for linear regression model, and a negative one (p=0.005) for the conditional auto-regression one. CONCLUSIONS:Problems related to basic sanitation contribute decisively to increase the risk of the disease.

“…Some authors have not found any particular patterns associated with unfavorable socioeconomic conditions (9,33,36), while the work by Barcellos,et al (37) in Porto Alegre associated dengue cases with favorable socioeconomic conditions. The relationship of these variables to dengue may be due to unclear socioeconomic segmentation in the city and the location of sectors with better conditions near those with poor conditions (38,39).…”

Monitoring the Paraguayan epidemiological dengue surveillance system (2009-2011) using Benford’s law

Introduction:Dengue is the most widespread arbovirus worldwide. In Paraguay, it reappeared in [1988][1989], with one of the largest epidemic outbreaks occurring in 2011. Objective: To evaluate the performance of the dengue epidemiological surveillance system in Paraguay between 2009 and 2011. Materials and methods:We conducted an ecological study with secondary epidemiological surveillance data. We analyzed notified cases of the disease based on the distribution expected by Benford's law. To this end, we used the first and second digits from the global records stratified by region, season, population density, indicators of housing conditions and heads of cattle. Results: The epidemiological surveillance system performed better during non-epidemic periods and in the states with better housing conditions and fewer heads of cattle. Conclusion: Given that a difference in the performance existed, we recommended that the system remains operating at the same high alert level even during periods when fewer cases are expected. The technology used by the method proposed to monitor the notification of cases is easy to transfer to operational staff. Materiales y métodos. Se hizo un estudio ecológico basado en datos secundarios de la vigilancia epidemiológica. Con base en la distribución esperada según la ley de Benford, se analizaron los casos notificados de la enfermedad; para tal fin, se usaron los primeros y segundos dígitos de los registros globales y estratificados por regiones, estaciones, densidad poblacional, indicadores de las condiciones de la vivienda y número de cabezas de ganado bovino. Resultados. El sistema de vigilancia epidemiológica se desempeñó mejor durante los periodos no epidémicos, y en los departamentos donde existen mejores condiciones de vivienda y pocas cabezas de ganado bovino.584 Biomédica 2016;36:583-92 Gómez-Camponovo M, Moreno J, Idrovo ÁJ, et al. Conclusión. Dadas las diferencias de desempeño, se recomendó que el sistema mantenga la alerta incluso cuando no se espere un mayor número de casos. El método propuesto para evaluar la notificación de casos es fácil de transferir al personal operativo.Palabras clave: control de vectores; notificación de enfermedad; vigilancia epidemiológica; dengue; distribuciones estadísticas; Paraguay. doi: http://dx
