It was ed 29 articles published between January 2016 and December 2020 that met the inclusion criteria. Results: the results pointed to scientific works published in indexed journals and with a satisfactory impact factor, although most of the ed studies were published in a low impact journal. Most studies had municipal coverage, with emphasis on cities in the North and Northeast of Brazil. The works addressed vulnerability in leprosy using different typologies.
