Abstract:

Mortality rates of Brazilians aged between 10 and 24 years were analyzed, according to sex, causes of death, for Brazil and Federated Units, between 1990 and 2019. They were analyzedthe Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019, using absolute numbers, proportion of deaths and specific mortality rates between 1990 and 2019, according to age group (10 to 14, 15 to 19 and 20 to 24 years), sex and causes of death for Brazil, regions and Brazilian states. There was a reduction of 11.8% in the mortality rates of individuals aged between 10 and 24 years in the investigated period. In 2019, there were 13,459 deaths (57.6/100,000) among women, corresponding to a reduction of 30.8% in the period. Among men there were 39,362 deaths (154.9/100,000), a reduction of only 6.2%. There was an increase in mortality rates in the North and Northeast and a reduction in the Southeast and South states. In 2019, the leading cause of death among women was traffic accidents, followed by interpersonal violence, maternal deaths and suicide. For men, interpersonal violence was the leading cause of death, especially in the Northeast, followed by traffic accidents, suicide and drowning. Police executions moved77th to 6th place.
