Abstract:

This study compares temporal trends in deaths from violence against children and adolescents and analyzes differences in occurrences classified as crimes or not. Data from the Mortality Information System and the Secretariat of Public Security of the State of Maranhão, Brazil, referring to 2014-2020 were analyzed. Children and adolescents were defined respectively as people aged 0-11 and 12-17 years old. Types of violence were organized according to groups, subgroups and criminal types of the Brazilian Penal Code. A total of 1,326 deaths and 8,187 occurrences were reported, most frequently in adolescence. Subtraction of the incapable (p<0.001), abandonment of the incapable (p=0.045) and rape of vulnerable (p=0.003) predominated in childhood. Homicides (p<0.001), crimes against individual freedom (p=0.004), crimes against sexual freedom (p<0.001) and psychological violence (p=0.034) were more frequent in adolescence. Domestic violence with bodily harm predominated in females (p<0.001). Severe bodily injuries (p=0.002), homicide (p<0.001) and illegal harassment (p<0.001) victimized more male adolescents. There were temporal differences in deaths and occurrences of violence against children and adolescents, as well as in the characteristics of violence classified or not as crimes.
