0057/2014 - Desigualdades de gênero na mortalidade por causas externas no Brasil, 2010.. Gender inequalities in violence and injury mortality in Brazil, 2010
Objetivo: Estimar as razões das taxas de mortalidade por causas externas e avaliar o risco de morrer conforme características sociodemográficas por gênero no Brasil. Métodos: Dados de 2010, corrigidos para sub-registro, foram obtidos do Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade do Ministério da Saúde, num total de 241.276 óbitos no sexo masculino e 112.386 no feminino. Para ajuste, utilizou-se método direto para padronização das taxas de mortalidade por idade conforme local de moradia. Razões de probabilidade de morte por causa externa foram calculadas por sexo, segundo idade, região de residência, raça/cor, escolaridade e estado conjugal, usando regressão de Poisson. Resultados: O coeficiente padronizado de mortalidade por causas externas é muito maior entre homens (183 por cem mil habitantes) do que entre mulheres (23 por cem mil habitantes). Os coeficientes são maiores entre os homens mais jovens (20 a 29 anos) em todas as regiões e diminuem com o aumento da idade. A razão de mortalidade por causas externas chega a ser 7,6 vezes maior entre homens comparativamente às mulheres, com valores maiores nas regiões Norte e Nordeste. A incidência de óbitos por causas externas é muito maior entre homens (36,4%) do que entre mulheres (10,9%), com risco 170% maior entre homens. O risco também é maior entre os mais jovens: 6,00 para os homens e 7,36 para as mulheres. Os principais tipos d

Abstract:
Objective: To estimate mortality rate by external causes and to evaluate the probability of precocious death according to socio-demographic characteristics by gender in Brazil. Methods: National data were obtained from the Mortality Information System of the Health Minister, performing 241,276 deaths among men and 112,386 among women. To adjust, standardized mortality ratio by age according place of residence were calculated by direct method. Probability rates by external causes were calculated by sex according to age, region of residence, race/skin color, education and conjugal situation, using Poisson regression. Results: The standardized mortality coefficient of external causes is higher among men (183 per thousand inhabitants) than among women (23 per thousand inhabitants). The rates are higher among young men (20 to 29 years old) in all regions and decrease with aging. The mortality rate reaches 7.6 times higher among men comparably to women, being higher in North and Northeast regions. The death incidence by external causes is higher among men (36.4%) than among women (10.9%), meaning 170% more risk for men. The risk is also higher among the youngest: 6.00 for men and 7.36 for women. The main kind of death by external causes among men is aggressions, followed by transport accidents, the opposite of women. Aggressions perform almost 80 deaths by thousand men, corresponding
