2059/2012 - TRAUMATISMOS MAXILOFACIAIS COMO MARCADORES DE VIOLÊNCIA URBANA: UMA ANÁLISE COMPARATIVA ENTRE OS GÊNEROS MAXILLOFACIAL INJURIES AS MARKERS OF URBAN VIOLENCE: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS BETWEEN GENDERS
A violência tem sido um tema amplamente discutido em diversos setores da sociedade, quer pelo reflexo nos indicadores de segurança pública, pela influência no cotidiano dos indivíduos ou pela presença constante de vítimas nos serviços de saúde. O estudo avaliou comparativamente as diferenças de vitimização entre os gêneros a partir dos traumatismos maxilofaciais como marcadores de violência urbana. Trata-se de um estudo transversal com dados coletados em três hospitais especializados no atendimento a politraumatismos em Belo Horizonte-MG, entre janeiro de 2008 e dezembro de 2010. As análises envolveram estatística descritiva e multivariada por regressão logística. Identificou-se o registro de 7.063 vítimas, sendo 55,1% de violência interpessoal. A maioria das vítimas era do sexo masculino (71,2%). Nos homens, as agressões por arma de fogo, arma branca e acidentes motocilísticos foram as mais importantes quando comparadas às agressões nuas ou sem uso de armas. As fraturas múltiplas foram o tipo de traumatismo que melhor caracterizou o perfil de vitimização para o sexo masculino comparativamente às lesões de partes moles (p<0,001; OR 2,78; IC 95%; 2,31; 3,36). O gênero é um importante fator na vitimização por traumatismo maxilofacial e violência urbana, sendo que os homens são as principais vítimas.

Abstract:
Urban violence is a topic widely discussed in different sectors of society, either by its reflection on indicators of public health, influence in everyday life of individuals or the presence of casualties in health services. This study compares differences in victimization among genders from maxillofacial injuries as markers of urban violence. This is a cross-sectional study with data collected in three hospitals of reference for this kind of injuries in Belo Horizonte-MG, between January 2008 and December 2010. The analysis included descriptive statistics and multivariate with logistic regression. There were records of 7.063 victims, 55.1% of interpersonal violence. The majority of victims were males (71.2%). In male victims aggressions with gunshoting, stabing of knife and motorcycle crashes were more frequent them aggression without use of a weapon (slaps, punches and kicks). The multiple fractures were the type of injuries that best characterized the profile of victimization for males compared to soft tissue injuries (p<0.001; OR 2.78; IC 95 %; 2.31; 3.36). Gender is an important factor in the victimization by maxillofacial injuries and urban violence.
