Colorectal cancer survival in Greater Cuiabá, state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. / Sobrevida do câncer colorretal na Grande Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, Brasil.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the specific five-year survival of colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosed between 2008 and 2013, according to sex and age group, of residents in Greater Cuiabá, state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study. Specific survival of CRC was considered as the time between disease diagnosis and death from CRC, in months. Data from the Population-Based Cancer Registry and the Brazilian Mortality Information System were used. To estimate the probability of survival by sex and age group, the Kaplan-Meier estimator was used, and to estimate the effect of age group on the survival of participants, the Cox model stratified by sex was adjusted. RESULTS: From 2008 to 2013, 683 new cases and 193 deaths from CRC were registered. The median time between diagnosis and death from CRC was 44.8 months (95%CI 42.4- 47.3) for women and 46.1 months (95%CI 43.4-48.6) for men, and the five-year survival probabilities of 83.5% (95%CI 79.9-87.2%) and 89.6% (95%CI 86.4-93.0%), respectively. Men aged 70-79 years (HR=2.97; 95%CI 1.11-3.87) and 80 years or older (HR=3.09; 95%CI 1.31-7.27) were at higher risk of mortality, and we verified no difference for women. CONCLUSION: Women had a shorter time between the diagnosis of CRC and death from the disease as well as a lower probability of survival. Conversely, men were at higher risk of mortality after 70 years of age.

OBJETIVO: Analisar a sobrevida específica em cinco anos do câncer colorretal diagnosticado entre 2008 e 2013, segundo sexo e faixa etária, de residentes na Grande Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. MÉTODOS: Estudo de coorte retrospectiva. A sobrevida específica pelo câncer colorretal foi considerada como o tempo entre o diagnóstico da doença até o óbito por câncer colorretal, em meses. Utilizaram-se dados do Registro de Câncer de Base Populacional e do Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade. Para estimar a probabilidade de sobrevida por sexo e faixa etária, utilizou-se o estimador de Kaplan-Meier, e, para estimar o efeito da faixa etária na sobrevida dos participantes, foi ajustado modelo de Cox estratificado por sexo. RESULTADOS: De 2008 a 2013, registraram-se 683 casos novos e 193 óbitos por câncer colorretal. O tempo mediano entre o diagnóstico e a morte por câncer colorretal foi de 44,8 meses (IC95% 42,4­47,3) para as mulheres e 46,1 meses (IC95% 43,4­48,6) para os homens e a probabilidade de sobrevida em cinco anos de 83,5% (IC95% 79,9­87,2%) e 89,6% (IC95% 86,4­93,0%), respectivamente. Os homens com 70-79 anos (HR=2,97; IC95% 1,11­3,87) e com 80 anos ou mais (HR=3,09; IC95% 1,31­7,27) apresentaram maior risco de mortalidade e sem diferença para as mulheres. CONCLUSÃO: O sexo feminino apresentou menor tempo entre o diagnóstico e o óbito pela doença, assim como menor probabilidade de sobrevida. Em contrapartida, foram os homens que apresentaram maior risco de mortalidade a partir dos 70 anos.

Cancer surveillance in Mato Grosso, Brazil: methodological and operational aspects of a university extension/research project.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the methodological and operational aspects of the "Project for surveillance of cancer and its associated factors: population-based and hospital-based registry" (VIGICAN), in the state of Mato Grosso (MT), Brazil. METHODS: VIGICAN was divided into two projects: a university extension one, which updated the data from the Population-based Cancer Registry (PBCR) of MT in the 2008-2016 period; and a research project, which collected primary data, through individual interviews and analysis of medical records of people with a diagnosis of cancer, aged 18 years or older, treated at reference hospitals for oncology. To analyze the factors associated with cancer, the following variables were collected: socioeconomic and demographic, social support, health status and behavior, and environmental exposure. RESULTS: In the 2008-2016 period, approximately one hundred thousand cases of cancer (incident and prevalent) were reported in the PBCR Cuiabá and PBCR Interior. After validation procedures, 50 thousand incident cases were elected. The survey interviewed 1,012 patients, 38.2% living in the municipalities of Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, 60.4% in small cities of the state, and 1.4% in other states. Preliminary data showed that the majority were women (55.0%) and younger than 60 years of age (54.3%). Among the interviewees, 7.2% reported smoking tobacco, 15.5% consumed alcoholic beverages (15.5%), and 32.7% lived nearby crops. CONCLUSION: The development of these projects allowed the integration of education with health services and will enable the recognition of specificities and different exposure scenarios and factors associated with cancer in the Mato Grosso territory.

Socioeconomic development and colorectal cancer mortality in a state of the Brazilian Legal Amazon from 2005 to 2016.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the correlation between colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality rates and socioeconomic factors in the five mesoregions (North, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest and Center-South) of the state of Mato Grosso, from 2005 to 2016. METHODS: Ecological study that considered deaths from CRC (C18 to C21) of residents of the state. Mortality rates were standardized by the direct method, using the world standard population. For the analysis of socioeconomic factors, the Firjan Municipal Development Index (IFDM) and its components (education, income and employment and health) were used. Means of mortality rates and socioeconomic factors between the mesoregions were tested using ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between mortality rates due to CRC and these factors. RESULTS: In the period from 2005 to 2016, 1,492 deaths from CRC were registered in the state of Mato Grosso. The Southwest mesoregion had the highest average for both the crude rate and standardized CRC mortality rates (3.47 and 3.86 deaths/100,000 inhabitants, respectively). There was a significant correlation between mortality rates from the disease with the following indicators: Overall IFDM for the North, Southeast and Center-South mesoregions; education for the North and Southeast mesoregions; income and employment for the North and Center-South mesoregions; and health for the North, Southeast and Center-South mesoregions. CONCLUSION: There was a correlation between CRC mortality rates and better socioeconomic development in the state.

Knowledge about the evolution of mortality can provide data on the epidemiological situation of cancer at the local level and, thus, contribute to the development of actions to control and prevent this disease.

RESUMO: Objetivo: Analisar a tendência temporal da mortalidade por câncer colorretal (CCR) segundo sexo e faixa etária, em Mato Grosso, Brasil, de 2000 a 2019. Métodos: Estudo ecológico de série temporal das taxas ajustadas de mortalidade pelo CCR (C18 a C21) de residentes de Mato Grosso. As informações sobre os óbitos foram fornecidas pela Secretaria de Estado de Saúde de Mato Grosso e compõem o Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade, e as informações demográficas foram obtidas do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística. Para a tendência temporal, foi empregada a análise de regressão por joinpoint. Resultados: Foram identificados 2.406 óbitos por CCR em Mato Grosso no período de 2000 a 2019. As maiores taxas foram encontradas entre as faixas etárias de 60 e 79 anos. Para os homens, evidenciou-se tendência crescente das taxas de mortalidade por CCR para quase todas as faixas etárias, com exceção das de 40 a 49 anos e de 80 anos ou mais. Para as mulheres, houve aumento significativo nas faixas etárias de 50 a 59 anos e de 80 anos ou mais. Conclusão: Os resultados do estudo mostraram aumento das taxas de mortalidade por CCR no estado do Mato Grosso, no período de 2000 a 2019, em determinadas faixas etárias de ambos os sexos, mas sobretudo para os homens. O conhecimento sobre a evolução da mortalidade pode oferecer dados da situação epidemiológica do câncer em nível local e, assim, contribuir para a elaboração de ações de controle e prevenção desse agravo.

Cancer surveillance in Mato Grosso, Brazil: methodological and operational aspects of a university extension/research project / Vigilância do câncer em Mato Grosso, Brasil: aspectos metodológicos e operacionais de um projeto de extensão/pesquisa

ABSTRACT: Objective: To describe the methodological and operational aspects of the "Project for surveillance of cancer and its associated factors: population-based and hospital-based registry" (VIGICAN), in the state of Mato Grosso (MT), Brazil. Methods: VIGICAN was divided into two projects: a university extension one, which updated the data from the Population-based Cancer Registry (PBCR) of MT in the 2008-2016 period; and a research project, which collected primary data, through individual interviews and analysis of medical records of people with a diagnosis of cancer, aged 18 years or older, treated at reference hospitals for oncology. To analyze the factors associated with cancer, the following variables were collected: socioeconomic and demographic, social support, health status and behavior, and environmental exposure. Results: In the 2008-2016 period, approximately one hundred thousand cases of cancer (incident and prevalent) were reported in the PBCR Cuiabá and PBCR Interior. After validation procedures, 50 thousand incident cases were elected. The survey interviewed 1,012 patients, 38.2% living in the municipalities of Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, 60.4% in small cities of the state, and 1.4% in other states. Preliminary data showed that the majority were women (55.0%) and younger than 60 years of age (54.3%). Among the interviewees, 7.2% reported smoking tobacco, 15.5% consumed alcoholic beverages (15.5%), and 32.7% lived nearby crops. Conclusion: The development of these projects allowed the integration of education with health services and will enable the recognition of specificities and different exposure scenarios and factors associated with cancer in the Mato Grosso territory.

RESUMO: Objetivo: Descrever os aspectos metodológicos e operacionais do projeto "Vigilância do câncer e seus fatores associados: registro de base populacional e hospitalar" (VIGICAN), em Mato Grosso (MT). Métodos: O VIGICAN desdobrou-se em dois projetos: um de extensão, que atualizou os dados dos Registros de Câncer de Base Populacional (RCBP) de Mato Grosso no período de 2008 a 2016; e um de pesquisa, que coletou dados primários por meio de entrevistas individuais e análise de prontuários de pessoas com diagnóstico de câncer, com 18 anos ou mais, atendidas em hospitais de referência para oncologia. Para analisar os fatores associados ao câncer, foram coletadas as seguintes variáveis: socioeconômicas e demográficas, suporte social, situação e comportamentos de saúde e exposição ambiental. Resultados: No período de 2008 a 2016, foram notificados nos RCBP Cuiabá e Interior, aproximadamente, 100 mil casos de câncer (incidentes e prevalentes). Após os procedimentos de validação, foram eleitos 50 mil casos incidentes. A pesquisa entrevistou 1.012 pacientes, sendo 38,2% residentes nos municípios de Cuiabá e Várzea Grande, 60,4% no interior do Estado e 1,4% em outros Estados. Os dados preliminares revelaram que a maioria era do sexo feminino (55,0%) e tinha menos de 60 anos (54,3%). Entre os entrevistados, 7,2% relataram fumar tabaco, 15,5% consumiam bebidas alcoólicas (15,5%) e 32,7% moravam próximo a lavouras. Conclusão: O desenvolvimento desses projetos permitiu a integração do ensino com os serviços de saúde e possibilitará o reconhecimento das especificidades e dos diferentes cenários de exposição ao câncer, bem como fatores associados a ele, no território mato-grossense.

Socioeconomic development and colorectal cancer mortality in a state of the Brazilian Legal Amazon from 2005 to 2016 / Desenvolvimento socioeconômico e mortalidade por câncer colorretal em uma unidade federativa da Amazônia Legal, de 2005 a 2016

ABSTRACT: Objective: To analyze the correlation between colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality rates and socioeconomic factors in the five mesoregions (North, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest and Center-South) of the state of Mato Grosso, from 2005 to 2016. Methods: Ecological study that considered deaths from CRC (C18 to C21) of residents of the state. Mortality rates were standardized by the direct method, using the world standard population. For the analysis of socioeconomic factors, the Firjan Municipal Development Index (IFDM) and its components (education, income and employment and health) were used. Means of mortality rates and socioeconomic factors between the mesoregions were tested using ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between mortality rates due to CRC and these factors. Results: In the period from 2005 to 2016, 1,492 deaths from CRC were registered in the state of Mato Grosso. The Southwest mesoregion had the highest average for both the crude rate and standardized CRC mortality rates (3.47 and 3.86 deaths/100,000 inhabitants, respectively). There was a significant correlation between mortality rates from the disease with the following indicators: Overall IFDM for the North, Southeast and Center-South mesoregions; education for the North and Southeast mesoregions; income and employment for the North and Center-South mesoregions; and health for the North, Southeast and Center-South mesoregions. Conclusion: There was a correlation between CRC mortality rates and better socioeconomic development in the state.

RESUMO: Objetivo: Analisar a correlação entre as taxas de mortalidade por câncer colorretal (CCR) e os fatores socioeconômicos nas cinco mesorregiões (norte, nordeste, sudeste, sudoeste e centro-sul) do estado de Mato Grosso, de 2005 a 2016. Métodos: Estudo ecológico que considerou os óbitos por CCR (C18 a C21) de residentes do estado. As taxas de mortalidade foram padronizadas pelo método direto, utilizando-se a população padrão mundial. Para a análise dos fatores socioeconômicos, foram usados o Índice Firjan de Desenvolvimento Municipal Geral (IFDM) e seus componentes (educação; renda e emprego; saúde). Foram testadas as médias das taxas de mortalidade e dos fatores socioeconômicos entre as mesorregiões por meio da análise de variância (ANOVA), e empregou-se o coeficiente de correlação de Pearson para análise da correlação entre as taxas de mortalidade por CCR e esses fatores. Resultados: No período de 2005 a 2016, foram registrados 1.492 óbitos por CCR no estado de Mato Grosso. A mesorregião com a maior média tanto da taxa bruta quanto da taxa padronizada de mortalidade por CCR foi a sudoeste (3,47 e 3,86 óbitos/100 mil habitantes). Houve correlação significante entre as taxas de mortalidade por CCR com os seguintes indicadores: IFDM geral para as mesorregiões norte, sudeste e centro-sul; educação para as mesorregiões norte e sudeste; renda e emprego para as mesorregiões norte e centro-sul; e saúde para as mesorregiões norte, sudeste e centro-sul. Conclusão: Houve correlação da taxa de mortalidade de CCR com melhor desenvolvimento socioeconômico no estado.

Spatial and temporal distribution of cancer mortality in a Brazilian Legal Amazon State between 2000 and 2015.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the spatial distribution of the four-year cancer mortality rates in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil, from 2000 to 2015. METHODOLOGY: Ecological design study, in which mortality from neoplasia was analyzed, from 2000 to 2015, for the municipalities of Mato Grosso State. Mortality rates due to cancer were calculated by the ratio of the sum of deaths by cancer in each quadrennium, divided by the average of the population in the two central years of the period, multiplied by 10,000 inhabitants. Annual percentage change was calculated by the ratio of the linear regression coefficient to the cancer mortality rates in Mato Grosso State at the beginning of the analyzed period (2000 to 2003). Thematic maps were constructed for each quadrennium using intervals of equal classes. RESULTS: Cancer caused 31,097 deaths in the state of Mato Grosso in the period, 13,058 in women and 18,039 in men, with a male to female ratio of 1.38. The top five causes of cancer death in the period were lung (12.2%), prostate (8.7%), stomach (7.7%), breast (6.0%), and liver (4.7%). There was an increase in the number of municipalities with rates greater than 23.67 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants in the period. CONCLUSION: There was an increase in cancer mortality and an increase in the proportion of municipalities with higher mortality rates. Higher density of cancer mortality occurred in the municipalities located in the West, Center-South, Southeast, and Center-North regions of the state.

Poor sanitation and transmission of COVID-19 in Brazil.

Coronavirus is a family of viruses that cause respiratory infections. From cases first recorded in China at the end of 2019, a new type of virus in this family, named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was discovered. The disease caused by this virus, COVID-19, was brought into Brazil by people in social classes with greater purchasing power, but groups with larger demographic dimensions have tended to become more affected over time. Poor sanitation can generate risky situations and behavior among people who live in spaces with characteristics that limit their quality of life. Installation of piped water in homes and basic education for the population are fundamental measures for disease control, including in relation to COVID-19. In this updating article, the COVID-19 pandemic was analyzed in the context of iniquities in Brazil (comparing these with the situation in other countries). A bibliographic search of texts relating to basic sanitation, socioeconomic development and transmission of COVID-19 in Brazil and worldwide was conducted.

Associação entre atividade física de lazer e conhecimento e participação em programas públicos de atividade física entre idosos brasileiros / Association between leisure-time physical activity and knowledge and participation in public physical activity programs among Brazilian older people

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a prevalência da atividade física de lazer entre idosos brasileiros e sua associação com conhecimento e participação em programas públicos de promoção dessa prática. Método Estudo transversal com dados de 11.177 pessoas idosas entrevistadas na Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde 2013. A variável resposta foi a prática de atividade física de lazer. As variáveis explicativas foram conhecimento e participação em programas públicos de promoção de atividade física, características sociodemográficas e de estilo de vida. A associação bruta e ajustada foi estimada pela regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. Resultados A maioria das pessoas idosas era do sexo feminino e tinha entre 60 e 69 anos; 17% conheciam, mas não participavam dos programas públicos de promoção de atividade física e somente 3,2% conheciam e participavam. A prevalência de ativos no lazer foi de 13,3%, e na análise ajustada, foi maior entre as pessoas idosas que conheciam, mas não participavam e conheciam e participavam de programas públicos de promoção a atividade física, nos homens, na faixa etária de 60 a 69 anos, com 12 anos ou mais de escolaridade; das regiões Nordeste e Centro-Oeste, com 2 doenças crônicas, que realizaram três ou mais consultas médicas nos 12 últimos meses e consumiam frutas e hortaliças cinco ou mais dias por semana. Conclusão O estudo mostrou uma baixa adesão das pessoas idosas à prática de atividade física, e pouco conhecimento e participação em programas públicos. Esforços são necessários para ampliar a divulgação desses programas, promover o envolvimento da população nessas práticas e contribuir para o envelhecimento ativo.

Abstract Objective To evaluate the prevalence of leisure-time physical activity among elderly Brazilians and its association with knowledge and participation in public programs to promote this practice. Method Cross-sectional study with data from 11,177 older adults from the 2013 National Health Survey. The response variable was the practice of leisure-time physical activity. The explanatory variables were knowledge and participation in public programs to promote physical activity, sociodemographic and lifestyle characteristics. The crude and adjusted association was estimated by Poisson regression with robust variance Results Most of the elderly were female and were between 60 and 69 years old; 17% knew but did not participate in public programs to promote physical activity, and only 3.2% knew and participated. The prevalence of active leisure time was 13.3%. In the adjusted analysis, it was higher among older adults who knew but did not participate and kew and participated in public programs to promote physical activity, in men, aged 60 to 79 years old, with five years old or more education; from the Northeast and Midwest regions, with chronic diseases, who had three or more medical appointments in the last 12 months and consumed fruits and vegetables five or more days a week. Conclusion The study showed a low adherence of the elderly to the practice of physical activity, and little knowledge and participation in public programs. Efforts are needed to expand the dissemination of these programs, promote the involvement of the population in these practices, and contribute to active aging.
