Abstract:

The works analyzes the spatial distribution of leprosy in Bahia and social determinants associated. Ecological study, with leprosy data 2001-2015. Three epidemiological indicators were ed: coefficient of detection in the general population and in children under 15 years and the rate of new cases with grade II of physical disability. These indicators were flattened by the Local Empirical Bayesian Model and were applied Global and Local Moran statistics. The independent variables were edthe IBGE-2010 Census. Multivariate regressions were employed, followed by spatial regression. Leprosy exhibited a heterogeneous distribution in the state, with concentration on the north-west axis and the south region. For the general detection coefficient, five variables composed the final model: demographic density, proportion of urban population, per capita income, proportion of extremely poor and households with more than three people per dormitory. The illiteracy proportion made up the final model for the grade II rate of physical disability. No determinants of the occurrence of the disease were identified in children under 15 years. The modeling used contributed to demonstrate the spatial heterogeneity and social determinants of the disease in Bahia, putting in evidence the complexity of the problem.
