Abstract:

Generalized observations of temporal trends in mortality could mask relevant specific patterns. The objective of this study is to analyze the trend of oral and oropharyngeal cancer mortality rates in Brazil,2000 to 2013, considering the differences by sex, anatomical site, age group and race. Data on oral and oropharyngeal cancer mortality were obtainedthe Mortality Information System. The trend of historical series mortality rates, by stratum, was estimated by generalized linear regression using the Prais-Winsten method. From 2000 to 2013, there were 61,190 deathsoral cancer and oropharynx (average of annual coefficients: 3.50 deaths/100 thousand inhabitants). The trend of mortality rates was stationary for males and increasing for females (1.31%/year). Growth pattern for men aged 20-29 years (2.92%/year) and for men of race/color brown (20.36%/year). Growth pattern was also identified for white women (2.70%/year) and brown women (8.24%/year). The surveillance of this condition should consider the sociodemographic differences of the population for an equitable planning of the strategies of care, because they reflected in different trends of mortality rates by oral and oropharynx cancer in Brazil.
