Este estudo explora a relação entre variáveis socioeconômicas e geográficas dos municípios brasileiros e as mortes por queimaduras térmicas (QT) e elétricas (QE). Utilizando dados do Sistema de Informações de Mortalidade e indicadores municipais do IBGE, investigou-se o impacto de diversos fatores na mortalidade por queimaduras. A análise revelou uma associação significativa entre a mortalidade e IDHM (QE: 2000-2009 – RR = 1,4·10?3 (IC95%: 3,4·10?4–5,9·10?3), 2010-2019 - RR = 1,53·10?3 (IC95%: 2,46·10?4–9,57·10?3); QT: 2000-2009 - RR = 2,95·10?6 (IC95%: 7,63·10?7–1,14·10?5), 2010-2019 - RR = 1,24·10?7 (IC95%: 1,79·10?8–8,68·10?7)), índice de Gini (QE: 2000-2009 - RR = 33,02 (IC95%: 18,43–59,03), 2010-2019 - RR = 197,52 (IC95%: 111,2–350,14); QT: 2000-2009 - RR = 25,77 (IC95%: 14,68–45,13), 2010-2019 - RR = 431,24 (IC95%: 237,24–781,89)), e percentual da população em áreas urbanas (QE: 2000-2009 – RR = 1,644 (IC95%: 1,253–2,1689), e 2010-2019 - RR = 1,55 (IC95%: 1,17–2,07); QT: 2000-2009 - RR = 2,42 (IC95%: 1,8–3,26), 2010-2019 - RR = 2,794 (IC95%: 1,98–3,96)). Os resultados sugerem que condições socioeconômicas inferiores estão correlacionadas com maiores riscos de mortes por queimaduras, indicando que representa um problema de saúde pública interligado às desigualdades sociais.

Abstract:
This study explores the relationship between socioeconomic and geographic variables of Brazilian municipalities and deaths caused by thermal (TB) and electrical burns (EB). Using data from the Mortality Information System and municipal indicators from IBGE, the impact of various factors on burn mortality was investigated. The analysis revealed a significant association between mortality and HDI (EB: 2000–2009 – RR = 1.4·10⁻³ (95%CI: 3.4·10⁻⁴–5.9·10⁻³), 2010–2019 – RR = 1.53·10⁻³ (95%CI: 2.46·10⁻⁴–9.57·10⁻³); TB: 2000–2009 – RR = 2.95·10⁻⁶ (95%CI: 7.63·10⁻⁷–1.14·10⁻⁵), 2010–2019 – RR = 1.24·10⁻⁷ (95%CI: 1.79·10⁻⁸–8.68·10⁻⁷)), Gini index (EB: 2000–2009 – RR = 33.02 (95%CI: 18.43–59.03), 2010–2019 – RR = 197.52 (95%CI: 111.2–350.14); TB: 2000–2009 – RR = 25.77 (95%CI: 14.68–45.13), 2010–2019 – RR = 431.24 (95%CI: 237.24–781.89)), and percentage of the population living in urban areas (EB: 2000–2009 – RR = 1.644 (95%CI: 1.253–2.1689), 2010–2019 – RR = 1.55 (95%CI: 1.17–2.07); TB: 2000–2009 – RR = 2.42 (95%CI: 1.8–3.26), 2010–2019 – RR = 2.794 (95%CI: 1.98–3.96)). The results suggest that lower socioeconomic conditions are correlated with higher risks of death by burns, indicating that it is a public health issue linked to social inequalities.
