ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the injury death and its potential years of life lost among residents in Changsha from 2014 to 2021. Methods Data was obtained from the routine death cause monitoring records, and descriptive analysis was conducted using SPSS 21.0 to analyze the characteristics of injury death and life loss. Joinpoint software was applied to analyze and compare the mortality rates of injury death causes in different years. Results From 2014 to 2021, a total of 23862 deaths from injuries were reported in residents in Changsha, with an average annual crude mortality rate of 37.23/105 and an average standardized mortality rate of 33.82/105. The age standardized rate in the male was higher than that in the female (χ2=2496.29,P=0.000). The standardized mortality rate of injury decreased year by year (APC=-4.013%,t=-3.052,P=0.022). The top five causes of death from injurie were traffic accident, accidental fall, drowning, suicide, and accidental poisoning. The leading causes of injury death were drowning in the age group of 0 to 14 years old, traffic accident in the group of 15 to 64 years old, and accidental fall in the group of 65 years old and above. From 2014 to 2021, the cumulative potential years of life lost (PYLL) of residents in Changsha was 398280.00 person years, the average years of life lost (AYLL) was 23.82 years per person, and the potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR) was 6.68‰. The top 5 types of injuries for PYLL were traffic accident, drowning, accidental fall, suicide, and accidental poisoning. Conclusion Injury is one of the important public health problems affecting the health of the residents in Changsha, and corresponding intervention measures should be taken according to the injury types of different populations.
ABSTRACT
Resumo A mortalidade provocada pela pandemia da COVID-19 tem produzido impactos aos indicadores de Anos Potenciais de Vida Perdidos (APVP) em nível mundial. Objetiva-se estimar os APVP devido à mortalidade por COVID-19, segundo sexo, faixa etária e raça/cor, no período de março de 2020 a dezembro de 2021, no Brasil. Foram caracterizadas as mortes por COVID-19, estimadas e comparadas as taxas e razão de taxas padronizadas de APVP, a média de anos potenciais de vida não vividos (APVNV) e a idade média do óbito (IMO). No geral, foram perdidos 13.776.969,50 anos potenciais de vida, o que determinou uma perda média de 22,5 anos potenciais não vividos. Houve maior perda de anos potenciais de vida nos homens (58,12%) e nas faixas etárias de 0 a 59 anos nas populações negra (58,92%) e indígena (63,35%), enquanto nas faixas etárias de 60 anos e mais foi observada maior perda de APVP nas populações branca (45,89%) e amarela (53,22%). As mulheres registraram as maiores IMO, com exceção das mulheres indígenas. Homens brancos (1,63), pardos (1,59) e pretos (1,61) tiveram as maiores taxas em comparação às mulheres brancas. Apesar da COVID-19 ter tido maior impacto em idosos, foram as populações negra e indígena na faixa de menos de 60 anos quem teve maior perda de anos potenciais de vida.
Abstract Mortality caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted indicators of Years of Potential Life Lost (YPLL) worldwide. This study aimed to estimate the YPLL due to mortality caused by COVID-19, according to sex, age group, and race/color in Brazil, from March 2020 to December 2021. Deaths caused by COVID-19 were characterized, in which the rates and ratios of standardized YPLL rates, the average number of years of potential life lost (ANYPLL), and the average age at death (AAD) were estimated and compared. Overall, 13,776,969.50 potential years of life were lost, which resulted in an average loss of 22.5 potential years not lived. A greater loss of potential years of life was identified in men (58.12%) and in the age groups from 0 to 59 years in the black (58.92%) and indigenous (63.35%) populations, while in the age groups of 60 years and over, a greater loss of YPLL was observed in the white (45.89%) and yellow (53.22%) populations. Women recorded the highest ADD, with the exception of indigenous women. White men (1.63), brown men (1.59), and black men (1.61) had the highest rates when compared to white women. Although COVID-19 has a greater impact on the elderly, it was the black and indigenous populations under the age of 60 who had the greatest loss of potential years of life.
ABSTRACT
Objetivo: Estimar los años potenciales de vida perdidos y la distribución espacial de la mortalidad por incidente vial según modo de transporte en Medellín 2010-2020, como línea base para la implementación de la estrategia Visión Cero, de la Organización Mundial de la Salud, en la movilidad de la ciudad. Metodología: Estudio retrospectivo y descriptivo de corte transversal, con fuente secundaria. El cálculo de los años potenciales de vida perdidos se hizo tomando como edad límite la esperanza de vida al nacer de Colombia, según año y género. El análisis espacial se realizó a partir de la dirección del incidente; la representación de la densidad de Kernel fue por el método de clasificación estándar-cuantil, y las zonas de influencia se crearon por el método búfer de anillos múltiples, con distancias de 500 y 1000 metros. Resultados: Medellín, entre 2010 y 2020, registró 2988 muertes por incidente vial. Quienes más murieron fueron los peatones, con 1423 (47,6 %) muertes, seguidos por los motociclistas, con 1295 (43,3 %). Los años potenciales de vida perdidos fueron 98 787. Las comunas de mayor concentración en muerte de peatones fueron: Candelaria, Buenos Aires y Manrique; en motociclistas, la mayor concentración se evidenció en el sistema vial del río. Por zonas de influencia, los peatones fallecidos en un radio de 1000 metros del sistema vial del río fueron 688 (49,8 %), y los motociclistas, 636 (52,2 %). Conclusión: Los motociclistas fueron quienes murieron más jóvenes y más años dejaron de vivir. Politraumatismos son diagnósticos constantes de muerte, pero lesiones en cabeza, cráneo y tórax son más letales en peatones y motociclistas.
Objective: To estimate the potential years of life lost and the spatial distribution of mortality from road incidents by mode of transport in Medellín 2010-2020, as a baseline for the implementation of the Vision Zero strategy of the World Health Organization in the city's mobility. Methodology: This is a retrospective and descriptive cross-sectional study, with a secondary source. The calculation of the potential years of life lost was made using the life expectancy at birth in Colombia as the age limit, according to year and gender. The spatial analysis was carried out from the direction of the incident; Kernel density was represented by the standard-quantile classification method, and the zones of influence were created by the multiple ring buffer method, with distances of 500 and 1000 meters. Results: Between 2010 and 2020, Medellín registered 2,988 deaths due to road incidents. Those who died the most were pedestrians, with 1,423 (47.6%) deaths, followed by motorcyclists, with 1,295 (43.3%). Potential years of life lost were 98,787. The zones (comunas) with the highest concentration of pedestrian deaths were: Candelaria, Buenos Aires and Manrique; in motorcyclists, the highest concentration was evidenced in the river road system. By areas of influence, pedestrians killed within a radius of 1,000 meters from the river road system were 688 (49.8%), and motorcyclists, 636 (52.2%). Conclusion: Motorcyclists were the ones who died the youngest and the most years they stopped living. Polytrauma is a constant diagnosis of death, but injuries to the head, skull and thorax are more lethal in pedestrians and motorcyclists.

El mayor número de casos de suicidios en hombres y mujeres se presentaron en el área urbana (51,2 % y 45,1 % respectivamente). El envenenamiento fue el mecanismo de suicidio más utilizado por las mujeres (66,7 %), y para los hombres, el mayor porcentaje (41,7) correspondió al ahorcamiento. La tendencia anual de muertes por suicidio fue mayor en hombres que en mujeres. En aquellos, la tasa de suicidio se situó por encima de 4,5 suicidios por 100 000 habitantes, mientras que, en ellas, se mantuvo por debajo de 3,0. Conclusiones: Hubo un aumento en la tendencia de muertes en el periodo de tiempo analizado y el riesgo de morir por suicidio en el hombre fue 3,9 veces el riesgo de morir en una mujer. El estudio contempla importantes aspectos para ser abordados en la prevención del suicidio.
Objective: To identify the sex differences associated with the potential years of life lost due to suicide in the department of Nariño, from 2005 to 2019. Methodology: Descriptive, observational and retrospective study, in which 1686 death certificates by suicide of men and women in the department of Nariño, identified in the National Administrative Department of Statistics, were analyzed. Results: From 2005 to 2019, 1,212 suicide cases of men were observed and 474 of women. Women committed suicide at younger ages than men. 50.5% of the men had completed primary school, and 46.0% of the women, secondary school. The highest number of suicide cases of men and women occurred in the urban area (51.2% and 45.1% respectively). Poisoning was the suicide mechanism most used by women (66.7%), and for men, the highest percentage (41.7) corresponded to hanging. The annual trend of deaths by suicide was higher in men than in women. For men, the suicide rate was above 4.5 suicides per 100,000 inhabitants, while for women, it remained below 3.0. Conclusions: There was an increase in the trend of deaths in the period analyzed and the risk of dying by suicide in men was 3.9 times the risk of dying by suicide in women. The study contemplates important aspects to be addressed in suicide prevention.

ABSTRACT
Fundamento: los accidentes constituyen cadenas de eventos y circunstancias que llevan a la ocurrencia de lesiones no intencionales. Son responsables de numerosas muertes cada año en el mundo. En el año 2019, los accidentes del tránsito y las caídas estuvieron entre las primeras 20 causas de muerte. En Cuba se erigieron como la quinta causa de mortalidad por todas las causas y edades en el decenio 2010-2019. Objetivo: caracterizar la mortalidad por accidentes en Cuba en el decenio 2010- 2019. Métodos: se realizó un estudio ecológico, longitudinal, descriptivo, de la mortalidad anual por accidentes en Cuba, a lo largo del decenio que comprende los años 2010 al 2019. Los anuarios estadísticos, publicados desde el año 2012 al 2022, por la Dirección de Registros Médicos y Estadísticas de Salud, del Ministerio de Salud Pública de Cuba, constituyeron la principal fuente de información. Para su procesamiento estadístico, los datos obtenidos fueron incluidos en una hoja de cálculo en Microsoft Excel y los resultados se expresaron en figuras y tablas. Resultados: las tasas brutas de mortalidad por accidentes en Cuba en el decenio 2010- 2019 se incrementaron de 43 a 49,9 por 100 000 habitantes, las más elevadas fueron por caídas: 23,7 en el año 2018 y 23,4 por 100 000 habitantes en el 2019. Los años de vida potencialmente perdidos por accidentes disminuyeron de 5,4 a 4,7 por 1 000 habitantes de 1 a 74 años. Conclusiones: en Cuba, en el decenio 2010- 2019, se observó un aumento en la mortalidad por accidentes a expensas de las caídas accidentales, estas con mayor frecuencia en el sexo femenino.
Background: accidents constitute chains of events and circumstances that lead to the occurrence of unintentional injuries. They are responsible for numerous deaths every year in the world. In 2019, traffic accidents and falls were among the top 20 causes of death. In Cuba, they stood as the fifth cause of mortality from all causes and ages in the decade 2010-2019. Objective: to characterize mortality from accidents in Cuba in the 2010-2019 decade. Methods: an ecological, longitudinal, descriptive study of annual mortality due to accidents in Cuba was carried out, throughout the decade from 2010 to 2019. The statistical yearbooks, published from 2012 to 2022, by the Directorate of Medical Records and Health Statistics, from the Ministry of Public Health of Cuba, constituted the main source of information. For its statistical processing, the data obtained were included in a spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel and the results were expressed in figures and tables. Results: the gross mortality rates due to accidents in Cuba in the 2010-2019 decade increased from 43 to 49.9 per 100,000 inhabitants, the highest being due to falls: 23.7 in 2018 and 23.4 per 100 000 inhabitants in 2019. The years of potential life lost due to accidents decreased from 5.4 to 4.7 per 1,000 inhabitants between 1 and 74 years of age. Conclusions: in Cuba, in the 2010-2019 decade, an increase in mortality from accidents was observed at the expense of accidental falls, these more frequently in the female sex.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of major kidney disease deaths and the potential years of life lost among residents in Wuhan from 2014 to 2019, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of kidney diseases. Methods The major kidney diseases deaths among residents in Wuhan during 2014-2019 were collected from the population-based Mortality Surveillance System. The standardized mortality rate and potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR) of major kidney diseases among residents in different ages and genders were calculated, and the epidemiological characteristics and trends were analyzed. Results There were 4 100 deaths (2 380 in male and 1 720 in female) from major kidney diseases among residents in Wuhan between 2014 to 2019, with an age-standardized mortality rate of 6.22/100 000. The mortality rate of major kidney diseases showed an upward trend with the increasing age groups. The age-standardized mortality rate and the age-standardized potential years of life lost rate (SPYLLR) in glomerular disease and tubulo-interstitial diseases were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The age-standardized mortality rate of the kidney failure was significantly increased (P<0.05), especially in the male (APC=25.10% , P<0.05). Conclusion From 2014 to 2019, there was no significant change in the overall mortality rate of major kidney diseases among residents in Wuhan. The death burden and disease burden of glomerular diseases and tubulo-interstitial diseases were significantly decreased, while the mortality rate of male kidney failure was significantly increased, indicating the need for targeted prevention and treatment of kidney diseases.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the epidemiological traits and potential years of life lost associated with lung cancer mortality among inhabitants of Shanghai's Pudong New Area from 1995 to 2021, in order to serve as a reference for developing intervention approaches. MethodsThe death surveillance system was used to gather statistics on lung cancer deaths. Crude mortality rate (CMR), standardized mortality rate (SMR), potential years of life lost (PYLL), average years of life lost (AYLL), annual percent change (APC) of the lung cancer deaths were analyzed. The impact of age-structural and non-age-structural factors on changes in lung cancer mortality was quantified using difference decomposition. ResultsThe CMR and SMR of lung cancer among residents in Pudong New Area between 1995 and 2021 were 58.21/105 and 26.75/105, respectively. The CMR of lung cancer increased over the years (APC=1.91%, 95%CI=1.60%‒2.30%; Z=11.487, P<0.001), and the SMR of lung cancer declined over the years (APC=-1.50%, 95%CI=-1.80%‒-1.20%; Z=-9.006, P<0.001). Age structure factors and gender factors contributed to the increase of lung cancer mortality, while non-population age structure factors overall appeared to play a protective role which might be related to the improvements in factors such as tobacco control and environmental management. The PYLL of lung cancer was 160 296 person years, the PYLL rate was 2.24‰, and the AYLL was 3.86 years per person. ConclusionAge structure factors are a significant contributor to the disease burden and result in the increase in the crude lung cancer mortality rate of Pudong residents of shanghai. Comprehensive monitoring, preventive, and control methods should be implemented.
ABSTRACT
Introducción: la vigilancia epidemiológica del suicidio en una región permite identificar los patrones, la distribución y las características con que ocurre y sentar las bases de intervenciones para prevenirlo. Objetivo: describir la situación del suicidio en Antioquia para el periodo 2016-2017. Métodos: estudio descriptivo basado en datos del Sistema de Vigilancia Epidemiológica de Lesiones de Causa Externa del Instituto Nacional de Medicina Legal y Ciencias forenses. Se calcularon las tasas de suicidio y los años de vida potencialmente perdidos (AVPP) y se describieron las circunstancias del evento. Resultados: hubo 425 suicidios en 2016 y 419 en el 2017, con una tasa de suicidio de 6,50 y 6,34 por 100.000 habitantes/año respectivamente, y 16.446,8 AVPP para 2016 y 16.019,94 para 2017. La mayor parte de los suicidios se presentó en el sexo masculino, en los grupos de edad jóvenes, residentes en área urbana y estado civil soltero. Con respecto a las características del suicidio, el mecanismo más frecuentemente utilizado fue la asfixia mecánica seguido por el envenenamiento, en cerca del 40% de los casos se estableció un evento vital desencadenante como los conflictos de pareja, y se presentaron con mayor frecuencia los días domingo y lunes y en la noche y madrugada. Conclusión: las tasas de suicidio en Antioquia se han incrementado en 2016 y 2017 con respecto a años anteriores. Es más frecuente en hombres y en edades económicamente productivas, lo que explica los altos AVPP. La descripción de las características del suicidio podría facilitar la discusión de intervenciones preventivas.
Summary Background: Identifying the patterns, distribution, and characteristics of suicide in a region is possible with epidemiological surveillance which may lay the foundations for suicide prevention. Objective: To describe the situation of suicide in Antioquia during the period 2016-2017. Methods: Descriptive study based on data from the Epidemiological Surveillance System for External Cause Injuries of the National Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences. Suicides rates and Years of Life Lost (YLL) were calculated and the circumstances of the event were described. Results: There were 425 suicides in 2016 and 419 in 2017, with a suicides rate of 6.50 and 6.34 per 100,000 inhabitants/year respectively, and 16,446.8 YLL for 2016 and 16,019.94 YLL for 2017. Most of the suicides occurred in males, in young age groups, urban residents and single marital status. Regarding the characteristics of suicide, the most frequently used mechanism was mechanical asphyxia followed by poisoning, in about 40% of cases a triggering life event was established, such as partner conflicts, and were more frequent on Sunday and Monday and at night and early morning. Conclusion: The incidence of suicide in Antioquia increased in 2016 and 2017 compared to previous years. It was more frequent in economically productive ages, which explains the high YLL. The description of the characteristics of suicide may facilitate the discussion of preventive interventions.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of death and disease burden of residents in Pingshan District of Shenzhen City from 2019 to 2020 and provide data support for disease prevention and control. Methods The data of death surveillance and demography were collected. The causes of death were classified and coded according to ICD-10. The crude mortality, standardized mortality and potential years of life lost were calculated. Results From 2019 to 2020, 910 people died in Pingshan district.The average age of death was 64.94(47.06 - 82.34) years, the crude mortality was 102.04/100 000, the standardized mortality was 263.97/100 000, and the average life expectancy was 86.00 years. 558 men died and 352 women died , the crude mortality were 113.72/100 000 and 87.76 /100 000 , the standardized mortality rate 313.05/100 000 and 211.97/100 000 ; the average life expectancy were 84.66 years and 87.55 years . The crude mortality of male was higher than that of female (χ2=14.594, P<0.001). The standardized mortality of men was also higher than that of women. The top three causes of death in the whole population, men and women were circulatory system diseases, malignant tumors, diseases and injury from high to low. And the top three diseases with standardized potential life lost years and standardized potential life lost rate from high to low were injury, circulatory system diseases and malignant tumors. Conclusion Circulatory system diseases, malignant tumors, injury are the main causes of death and the three kinds of diseases with the heaviest disease burden in Pingshan District of Shenzhen city. Men are the key population for prevention and control. The prevention and control of the above three kinds of diseases should be done to reduce the mortality of local population.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the changes of mortality and potential years of life lost (PYLL) due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among residents in Baoshan District, Shanghai from 2010 to 2019 and provide strategies and basis for COPD prevention and treatment in the future. Methods Based on the cause-of-death surveillance system in Baoshan District of Shanghai from 2010 to 2019, Microsoft Excel 2010, SPSS 22.0 and Joinpoint Trend Analysis Software were used to sort out and analyze the data over the years and calculate the crude mortality, standardized mortality, age-specific mortality, PYLL, annual percent change (APC), etc. Results From 2010 to 2019, the average annual mortality of COPD was 48.08/100 000, and the standardized mortality rate was 39.95/100 000, accounting for 5.82% of the total deaths in the same period, and COPD ranked as the third leading cause of death in Baoshan District. During the 10 years, the crude and standardized mortality of male COPD patients were generally higher than those of female patients ( P <0.01). However, the crude mortality and standardized mortality of COPD showed a decreasing trend with the increase of years ( P <0.001), and an increasing trend with the increase of age, of which the proportion of patients aged 75 and above was the highest, accounting for 85.71% of all age groups. The PYLL caused by COPD deaths was 2 352.5 years, including 1 977.5 years for men and 375.0 years for women. The number of years of life lost per 10 000 people due to COPD in males (4.18 years) was much longer than that in females (0.82 years). Conclusion From 2010 to 2019, the standardized mortality of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease among residents in Baoshan District, Shanghai has shown a significant decline. However, due to the heavy burden brought by COPD, which has an especially profound impact on the health of elderly and male residents, COPD should be regarded as one of the key diseases in the prevention and control of chronic diseases in public health services, and effective preventive measures should be taken.

ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the death status, mortality trend, cause of death and life loss of injury and poisoning among residents in Qidong City, Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2019, and to provide a reference for formulating public health policies. Methods Data on injury and poisoning death of residents in Qidong City from 1990 to 2019 were collected through the death cause registration and monitoring system of Qidong City, Jiangsu Province. Indicators such as crude death rate (CR) and standardized death rate (CASR), average years of lost life (AYLL), and potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR) were calculated. Annual percentage change (APC) was used to analyze the trend of death from injury and poisoning. Results From 1990 to 2019, 18 163 residents in Qidong City, Jiangsu Province died of injuries and poisoning. The CR was 53.12/100 000 (APC=0.74%), and the CASR was 39.43/100 000 (APC=-1.86%). The male CR was 66.90 100 000 (APC=0.75%), and the male CASR was 52.42/100 000 (APC=-1.75%), while the female CR was 39.69/100 000 (APC=0.73%), and the female CASR was 26.63/100 000 (APC=-2.14%). Analysis of the standardized mortality rate showed a downward trend year by year (P<0.001). PYLL caused by injury and poisoning was 318 502.50 person-years (APC=-4.00%), AYLL was 26.02 years/person (APC=-3.26%) and the PYLLR was 10.39‰ (APC=-3.54%). The top five death causes of injury and poisoning are motor vehicle accidents, suicide, drowning, accidental falls and accidental poisoning, accounting for 87.17% of the total deaths from injuries and poisoning. Drowning was the leading cause of death for children aged from 0 to 14. Motor vehicle accidents were the leading cause of death for residents aged from 15 to 64, and accidental falls were the leading cause of death for residents over 65. Conclusion Injury and poisoning are one of the main causes of death among residents in Qidong City, Jiangsu Province. The distribution characteristics of injurie and poisoning deaths of different genders and ages are different. According to their distribution characteristics, targeted and specific measures should be taken to reduce mortality.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN Objetivo. Estimar el impacto de la pandemia de la COVID-19 durante el año 2020, a través del exceso de mortalidad por todas las causas y los años potenciales de vida laboral perdidos en la población en edad de trabajar, de una selección de países latinoamericanos y el Caribe. Métodos. Estudio basado en datos de defunciones por todas las causas entre 15 y 69 años, procedentes principalmente de los Institutos Nacionales de Estadísticas. Se estimaron defunciones esperadas a partir de las registradas entre 2015 y 2019. El exceso de mortalidad fue estimado a través del indicador P, la razón de mortalidad estandarizada (RME) y los años potenciales de vida laboral perdidos (AVLP) hasta los 70 años. Resultados. El exceso de defunciones en Brasil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, México, Perú y República Dominicana sumó 426 978 (279 591 en hombres y 147 438 en mujeres), lo que representó una pérdida de 5 710 048 (3 738 775 en hombres y 1 971 273 en mujeres) de APVLP. La mortalidad observada fue significativamente superior a la esperada en todos los países, menos República Dominicana. Conclusiones. El impacto de la COVID-19 en la población en edad de trabajar tendrá un impacto profundo en la situación socioeconómica. El recuento oportuno del exceso de muertes resulta útil y puede ser usado como un sistema de alerta temprana para monitorizar la magnitud de los brotes de COVID-19. La monitorización del exceso de mortalidad en personas en edad de trabajar, realizada por el Observatorio Iberoamericano de Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo permite evaluar con mayor exactitud la carga social y económica de la COVID-19.
ABSTRACT Objective. Estimate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, through excess all-cause mortality and potential years of productive life lost (YPLL) in the working-age population, in selected Latin American and Caribbean countries. Methods. Study based on data on deaths from all causes from age 15 to 69 years, mainly from national institutes of statistics. Estimates of expected deaths were based on reported deaths from 2015 to 2019. Excess mortality was estimated using the P indicator, standardized mortality ratio (SMR), and potential YPLL up to age 70 years. Results. Excess deaths in Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, and Peru totaled 426 978 (279 591 men and 147 438 women), representing a potential loss of 5 710 048 (3 738 775 in men and 1 971 273 in women) years of productive life. Observed mortality was significantly higher than expected in all countries except the Dominican Republic. Conclusions. COVID-19 in the working-age population will have a profound impact on socio-economic conditions. Timely counting of excess deaths is useful and can be used as an early warning system to monitor the magnitude of COVID-19 outbreaks. Monitoring of excess mortality in working-age people by the Ibero-American Observatory on Safety and Health at Work enables more accurate assessment of the social and economic burden of COVID-19.

ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT: Objective: To estimate the potential years of life lost (PYLL) to cancer in the State of Mato Grosso, from 2000 to 2019, stratified by sex, according to age groups and cancer types. Methods: It is a quantitative study with an ecological approach developed from secondary data, using the PYLL and its derivatives. Results: In the period analyzed, deaths from cancer in Mato Grosso resulted in 680,338 PYLL before the age of 80, with a variation of 82.5%. Of this total, 52.7% were assigned to males. The rate of the PYLL for cancer before the age of 60 was 70.9% in males, and 80.1% among women. The rates of PYLL increased in the period and showed slightly higher values in males. In the analysis according to age group, the rates of PYLL were also higher in males, except between the ages of 30 and 49. Lung cancers and lymphomas/leukemias resulted in greater losses of PYLL among men and female specific cancers (breast, cervical and uterine, and ovarian cancer) accounted for 36.26% of the PYLL among women, with variability per age groups. Conclusion: In Mato Grosso, the PYLL indicator for cancer presented unfavorable evolution between 2000 and 2019, with greater damage for males and for the younger population. Leukemias, lymphomas, and lung and breast cancers were the main causes for the PYLL.
RESUMO: Objetivo: Estimar os anos potenciais de vida perdidos por câncer no estado de Mato Grosso, no período de 2000 a 2019, estratificando os dados por sexo, segundo faixas etárias e tipos de câncer. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, com abordagem ecológica a partir de dados secundários, utilizando-se o indicador anos potenciais de vida perdidos e seus derivados. Resultados: No período analisado, as mortes por câncer em Mato Grosso resultaram em 680.338 anos potenciais de vida perdidos antes dos 80 anos, com variação de 82,5%. Desse total, 52,7% foram atribuídos ao sexo masculino. O peso dos anos potenciais de vida perdidos por câncer antes dos 60 anos foi de 70,9% no sexo masculino e 80,1% entre as mulheres. As taxas de anos potenciais de vida perdidos aumentaram no período estudado e apresentaram valores ligeiramente mais elevados entre os homens. Na análise segundo faixas etárias, as taxas de anos potenciais de vida perdidos também foram maiores entre os homens, exceto entre 30 e 49 anos. Os cânceres de pulmão e linfomas/leucemias resultaram em maiores perdas de anos potenciais de vida entre os homens, e os cânceres de especificidade feminina (mama, colo e corpo do útero e ovário) responderam por 36,26% dos anos potenciais de vida perdidos entre as mulheres, com variabilidade por faixas etárias. Conclusão: Em Mato Grosso, o indicador anos potenciais de vida perdidos por câncer apresentou evolução desfavorável entre 2000 e 2019, com maior prejuízo para o sexo masculino e para a população mais jovem. As leucemias, linfomas e cânceres de pulmão e mama foram os principais responsáveis pelos anos potenciais de vida perdidos.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT: Objective: To estimate the mortality trend and to analyze the potential years of life lost (PYLL) due to leukemias and lymphomas in Brazil and Mato Grosso, from 2001 to 2019. Methods: Time-series study on deaths from leukemias and lymphomas with data obtained from the Mortality Information System. Trends were calculated by age group by the Joinpoint regression method, using calendar year as regressor variable, estimated annual percentage change (APC) and mean annual percentage change, considering 95% confidence intervals. PYLL rates were collected from the Cancer Mortality Atlas. Results: In Brazil, the mortality rate trend remained stable for both diseases in the period: leukemias (APC=0.2; 95%CI 0.0-0.3) and lymphomas (APC=0.2; 95%CI 0.4-0.1). In Mato Grosso state, the rate for leukemias was also stable (APC=0.3; 95%CI 1.0-1.6). For lymphomas, the trend was ascendant (APC=2.3; 95%CI 0.5-4.2), but descending among people younger than 59 years. For leukemias, PYLL rates were 64 and 65/100,000 in Brazil and Mato Grosso, respectively. For lymphomas, 27 and 22/100,000, respectively, with the highest rates found among males. Conclusion: The behavior of mortality rates from leukemia and lymphoma in Mato Grosso was different from that observed nationally, with an upward trend for lymphomas and no differences between age groups for both diseases. PYLL rates for leukemias were similar, while for lymphomas they were higher among men and lower in Mato Grosso when compared to Brazil.
RESUMO: Objetivos: Estimar a tendência de mortalidade e analisar os anos potenciais de vida perdidos (APVP) por leucemias e linfomas no Brasil e em Mato Grosso, entre os anos de 2001 e 2019. Métodos: Estudo de série temporal de óbitos por leucemias e linfomas obtidos do Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade. As tendências foram calculadas por faixa etária pelo método de regressão joinpoint, usando ano calendário como variável regressora, e estimaram-se a variação percentual anual (APC) e a variação percentual média anual, considerando intervalos de confiança de 95% (IC95%). As taxas de APVP foram coletadas do Atlas de Mortalidade por Câncer. Resultados: No Brasil, a tendência da taxa de mortalidade apresentou estabilidade para ambos os agravos, leucemias (APC=0,2; IC95% 0,0-0,3) e linfomas (APC=0,2; IC95% 0,4-0,1). No estado, a taxa por leucemias também apontou estabilidade (APC=0,3; IC95% 1,0-1,6). Para os linfomas, a tendência foi de aumento (APC=2,3; IC95% 0,5-4,2), contudo tendência decrescente foi observada entre aqueles com menos de 59 anos. Para leucemias, as taxas de APVP foram de 64 e 65/100 mil no Brasil e em Mato Grosso, respectivamente. Para linfomas, esses valores foram de 27 e 22/100 mil, respectivamente, sendo as maiores taxas encontradas no sexo masculino. Conclusão: As taxas de mortalidade por leucemias e linfomas em Mato Grosso apresentam comportamento diferente do observado nacionalmente, com tendência crescente para linfomas e sem diferenças entre as faixas etárias, para ambos os agravos. As taxas de APVP por leucemias foram semelhantes, no entanto para os linfomas foram maiores entre os homens e menores para o estado, quando comparadas com as do Brasil.
ABSTRACT
Resumo Introdução: poucos estudos buscam evidenciar as diferenças raciais e o impacto social das mortes precoces decorrentes do trabalho, o que contribui para a inexistência de políticas públicas que objetivem superar essas desigualdades. Objetivo: analisar a tendência temporal das Taxas de Anos Potenciais de Vida Perdidos (TAPVP) decorrentes de acidentes de trabalho, segundo raça/cor da pele no estado da Bahia, de 2000 a 2019. Métodos: estudo de série temporal, com base em dados do Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade (SIM); consideraram-se os óbitos por acidentes de trabalho. Empregou-se o modelo de regressão linear pelo método Joinpoint para análise da série temporal e o cálculo da Variação Percentual Anual (VPA) das TAPVP. Resultados: foram notificados 2.137 óbitos por acidentes de trabalho no período estudado, correspondentes a 64.791,5 APVP, dos quais 74,2% envolveram trabalhadores da raça/cor da pele parda. Destaca-se que a VPA das TAPVP entre trabalhadores pardos e negros foi, respectivamente, 2,3 e 3,0 vezes a VPA dos trabalhadores brancos. Os trabalhadores pardos morreram mais precocemente e tiveram maior perda de anos potenciais de vida em quantidade e maior velocidade de crescimento da TAPVP, comparados com os trabalhadores brancos. Conclusão: a mortalidade precoce por acidentes de trabalho representa um relevante problema de saúde pública, destacando-se entre trabalhadores não-brancos.
Abstract Introduction: few studies seek to highlight racial differences and the social impact of early deaths resulting from work, which contributes to the lack of public policies that aim to overcome these inequalities. Objective: to analyze the time trend of Potential Years of Life Lost (PYLL) rates resulting from occupational accidents, according to race/skin color in Bahia, Brazil, from 2000 to 2019. Methods: a time series study was conducted using data collected from the Brazilian Mortality Information System (SIM). Only deaths from work-related accidents were included. Joinpoint linear regression was used to analyze the times series; the PYLL rates were estimated by annual percentage change. Results: the state of Bahia notified 2,137 deaths due to work-related accidents in the studied period, corresponding to a 64,791.5 PYLL, of which 74.2% involved black/brown skin workers. PYLL rates among brown and black workers was, respectively, 2.3 and 3.0 times that of white workers. Brown workers died earlier and had greater loss of PYLL, in quantity, and higher growth speed of the PYLL rates, when compared with white workers. Conclusion: early mortality due to occupational accidents constitute a relevant public health issue, especially among non-white workers.

Abstract Objective To investigate the trend of homicides and estimate the years of potential life lost due to this cause in southern Brazil. Methods This is a time series study for homicide constructed from the Mortality Information System. Years of potential life lost were estimated according to age group, sex and cause of death, and mortality rates were calculated. Trend analysis was verified by Prais-Winsten regression with calculation of annual percentage change. Results The South had a 14.5% increase in homicide mortality rates in the historical series, with emphasis on young adults (20 to 29 years) and the male population as the main victims of homicides and with greater years of potential life lost. The highest homicide rates were recorded in Paraná, with a stationary trend (APC= 0.10%; 95%CI= -1.23; 1.65; p= 0.875). In Rio Grande do Sul, there was a growing trend with an increase of 25.0% (APC=0.90%CI95%=0.49; 1.32; p<0.001). In Santa Catarina, there was a growing trend with an increase of 20.8% (APC= 0.70%; 95%CI= 0.09; 1.32, p<0.001). Regarding sex, there was a higher prevalence of males in Rio Grande do Sul with 27.7% (APC= 0.90%; 95%CI= 0.49; 1.32, p<0.001) and females in Santa Catarina with 17.4% (APC=0.70%; 95%CI=0.50; 0.91, p<0.001). Conclusion The trend was towards an increase in homicides in the southern states, with a predominance of homicides among young adults and the greater loss of years of life among males represents important socioeconomic issues for a preventable cause.

RESUMEN Fundamento la muerte materna representa uno de los acontecimientos más notables dentro de los conflictos de la salud sexual y reproductiva en el mundo. La elevada mortalidad por esta causa en el mundo es inadmisible. Sin embargo, las estimaciones para determinar la carga de morbilidad y mortalidad maternas aún son limitadas. Objetivo determinar la carga por mortalidad relacionada con el embarazo, parto y puerperio en Cuba entre los años 2005 y 2018. Métodos se realizó un estudio descriptivo, de datos transversales nacionales y periodicidad anual. El universo de estudio estuvo conformado por todas las muertes ocurridas durante el embarazo, parto y puerperio en el periodo 2005-2018, en Cuba (N=831). Se calcularon la razón de mortalidad, años de vida potencialmente perdidos por mortalidad, el porcentaje, el promedio y la tendencia. Resultados del total de fallecidas por muertes ocurridas durante el embarazo, parto y puerperio, 463 fueron por muerte directa; 247 por muerte indirecta; y 247, por otras muertes 121. La razón promedió 48,8 fallecidas por cada 100 000 nacidos vivos. Los años de vida potencialmente perdidos fueron 42582: 23433 por muertes directas, 12724 por indirectas, y 6425 por otras muertes. Conclusión las muertes obstétricas directas fueron las más frecuentes, y las de mayor impacto sobre la esperanza de vida; mientras que las obstétricas indirectas mostraron una tendencia a aumentar en el tiempo. Por otras muertes, las mujeres fallecieron en edades más tempranas.
ABSTRACT Background maternal death represents one of the most notable events in the conflicts of sexual and reproductive health in the world. The high mortality from this cause in the world is unacceptable. However, estimates for determining the burden of maternal morbidity and mortality health are still limited. Objective to determine the burden of mortality related to pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium in Cuba between 2005 and 2018. Methods a descriptive study was carried out, with national cross-sectional data and annual periodicity. The universe of study was made up of all the deaths that occurred during pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium in the period 2005-2018, in Cuba (N = 831). The mortality ratio, years of life potentially lost due to mortality, the percentage, the average and the trend were calculated. Results of the total number of deceased due to deaths that occurred during pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium, 463 were due to direct death; 247 for indirect death; and 247, due to other deaths 121. The ratio averaged 48.8 deaths for every 100 000 live births. Years of life potentially lost were 42,582: 23,433 for direct deaths, 12,724 for indirect deaths, and 6,425 for other deaths. Conclusion direct obstetric deaths were the most frequent and those with the greatest impact on life expectancy; while indirect obstetrician women showed a tendency to increase over time. For other deaths, women died at an earlier age.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN Fundamento las complicaciones durante el embarazo, parto y puerperio constituyen las principales causas de muertes de mujeres en edad fértil. El estudio de la carga de mortalidad derivada de estas complicaciones es útil para cuantificar el impacto de muertes prematuras sobre la esperanza de vida de la población. Objetivo describir el comportamiento de la carga por muertes maternas debidas a causas directas en Cuba, entre el periodo 2005-2018. Métodos estudio descriptivo de series anuales, de corte transversal. El universo lo conformó el total de las muertes maternas directas (N=463). Se calcularon la razón de mortalidad, años de vida potencialmente perdidos por mortalidad, la tendencia, el porcentaje y el promedio. Resultados durante los años 2005-2018 fallecieron en Cuba 463 mujeres por causas obstétricas directas. Las muertes prematuras cuantificaron 22897 años de vida perdidos debido a esta causa, con una tendencia a decrecer en el tiempo y con un promedio anual de 1636 años de vida potencialmente perdidos; como promedio se dejaron de vivir por cada fallecida, 49 años. La causa directa que más años de vida perdidos generó fue el grupo de las complicaciones relacionadas con el puerperio (6 790). Conclusión las causas con mayor impacto sobre la esperanza de vida fueron las complicaciones relacionadas con el puerperio, otras hemorragias y embarazo ectópico; pero las mujeres que murieron en edades más jóvenes fueron a causa de aborto e infección puerperal. Las infecciones puerperales, trastornos placentarios y otras complicaciones mostraron tendencia a aumentar en el tiempo.
ABSTRACT Background complications during pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium are the main causes of death in women of childbearing age. The study of the mortality burden derived from these complications is useful to quantify the impact of premature deaths on the population life expectancy. Objective to describe the behavior of the maternal deaths burden due to direct causes in Cuba, between 2005 and 2018. Methods descriptive study of annual series, cross-sectional. The universe was the total of direct maternal deaths (N = 463). The mortality ratio, years of life potentially lost due to mortality, the trend, the percentage and the average were calculated. Results during the years 2005-2018, 463 women died in Cuba from direct obstetric causes. Premature deaths quantified 22897 years of life lost due to this cause, with a tendency to decrease over time and with an annual average of 1636 years of life potentially lost; on average, they stopped living for each deceased, 49 years. The group of complications related to the puerperium (6790) was the direct cause that generated more years of life lost. Conclusion the causes with the greatest impact on life expectancy were complications related to the puerperium, other hemorrhages and ectopic pregnancy; but the women who died at younger ages were from abortion and puerperal infection. Puerperal infections, placental disorders, and other complications tended to increase over time.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN Objetivo Estimar los años potenciales de vida perdidos (APVP) y los años potenciales de vida laboral perdidos (APVLP) en la población en edad laboral asociados a los fallecimientos prematuros por lesiones en accidentes de tránsito para las 24 provincias de Ecuador. Métodos Se emplearon fuentes de información estadística (registro de defunciones CIE-10 V01 a V89 y censo poblacional) para estimar los APVP y APVLP en edades laborales (15 a 64 años de edad) por sexo y provincias. Además, se calcularon la tasa cruda y específica (edades laborales) y la edad media (IC95%). Resultados La mayoría de las muertes en edad laboral por lesiones en accidentes tránsito estuvo en hombres con edades jóvenes y en las provincias de las regiones amazónica (Orellana y Sucumbíos) y la costa del Pacífico del país (Los Ríos). El número de APVLP se estima en 69 314 años, mientras que los APVP asciende a 94 567 años, las provincias de Guayas y Pichincha acumulan la mayor cantidad de APVP y APVLP. Conclusiones Los años perdidos estimados por muertes prematuras por esta causa representan un problema de salud pública y un importante coste laboral para el desarrollo del país. Los resultados encontrados refuerzan la necesidad de intensificar la mejora de programas y actuaciones públicas en seguridad vial.
ABSTRACT Objetive To estimate the potential years of life lost (YPLL) and the potential years of wor-king life lost (YPPLL) in the working-age population associated with premature deaths from injuries in traffic accidents for the 24 provinces of Ecuador. Methods Statistical information sources (ICD-10 V01 to V89 death registry and population census) were used to estimate the YPLL and YPPLL for working ages (15 to 64 years of age) by sex and provinces. Additionally, the crude and specific rate (working ages) and the mean age (95% CI) were calculated. Results Most deaths of working age for injuries in traffic accidents was in men younger ages and in the provinces of the Amazon regions (Orellana and Sucumbíos) and the Pacific coast of the country (Los Ríos). The number of YPLL is estimated at 69,314 years, while the YPPLL amounts to 94,567 years, the provinces of Guayas and Pichincha accumulate the highest amount of YPLL and YPPLL. Conclusions Estimated lost years for this cause premature deaths represent a public health problem and a major labor cost for the development of the country. The results reinforce the need to strengthen public programs and improve road safety performances.
