There is an annual increase of 3,387 cases (95% CI 2,276-4,498), which is statistically significant (p < 0.001). Acre was the state with the highest incidence rate. The profile of the victims is predominantly girls (88.5%), adolescents (44.6%) or children (30.6%), with brown skin color (49.6%), and the perpetrator being a close or family member (76.1%).
