Abstract:

The objective of this study was to identify indicators of social inequalities associated with mortalityneoplasms in the Brazilian adult population. A scoping review was used as a method, establishing the guiding question: What is the effect of social inequalities on mortalityneoplasms in the Brazilian adult population? A total of 567 papers were identified, 22 of which were considered eligible. A variety of indicators were identified, such as the Human Development Index and the Gini Index, among others, which primarily assessed differences in income, schooling, human development and vulnerability. A single pattern of association between the indicators and the different neoplasms was not established, nor was a single indicator capable of explaining the effect of social inequality at all levels of area and by deathsall types of neoplasms identified. It is known that mortality is influenced by social inequalities and that the study of indicators provides an opportunity to define which best explains deaths. This review highlights important gaps regarding the use of non-modifiable social indicators, analysis of small areas and limited use of multidimensional indicators.
