Resumo: This study assesses the epidemiological situation of neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) with the highest occurrence in the Amazon and its association with socio-environmental vulnerabilities. An ecological, descriptive study was carried out in the period between 2007 and 2016 about notified NTDs, in addition to data on the Municipal Human Development Index (MHDI), basic sanitation and population growth in the capitals of the Legal Amazon. The data obtained were organized in Excel spreadsheets for the application of descriptive statistics, principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA). The diseases reported were dengue, tuberculosis, American cutaneous leishmaniasis, schistosomiasis, visceral leishmaniasis and Chagas disease. All capitals presented at least four NTDs. These data were confirmed through the PCA and HCA, which found that the NTDs identified could be grouped by similarities between the values. Most capitals have had high population growth and MHDI in recent years, however, sewage and water supply services fall short. The study showed that there is a association between the reported diseases and data on population growth and basic sanitation, which may show a geographical neglect. One way to change this epidemiological reality in the Amazon is to elaborate public policies, with financial planning directed to the realization of viable and effective projects that offer constant services of basic sanitation, drinking water and health education for this population.

En el período comprendido entre 2007 y 2016 se realizó un estudio descriptivo ecológico sobre las ETD notificadas, además de datos sobre el Índice de Desarrollo Humano Municipal (IDHM), saneamiento básico y crecimiento de la población en las capitales de la Amazonía Legal. Los datos obtenidos fueron organizados en planillas Excel para la aplicación de la estadística descriptiva, análisis de componentes principales (PCA) y análisis jerárquico de las agrupaciones (HCA). Las enfermedades notificadas fueron dengue, tuberculosis, leishmaniasis cutánea estadounidense, esquistosomiasis, leishmaniasis visceral y enfermedad de Chagas. Todas las capitales presentaron al menos cuatro ETD. Estos datos fueron confirmados a través del PCA y HCA, que comprobaron que las ETD identificadas pudieron ser agrupadas por similitudes entre los valores. La mayoría de las capitales presentaron crecimiento poblacional y IDHM elevados en los últimos años, mientras, los servicios de agotamiento sanitario y abastecimiento de agua dejan a desear. El estudio mostró que hay una asociación entre las enfermedades notificadas y los datos de crecimiento poblacional y saneamiento básico, los cuales pueden evidenciar una negligencia geográfica. Una manera de cambiar esa realidad epidemiológica en la Amazonía es elaborando políticas públicas, con planificación financiera direccionada para la realización de proyectos viables y eficaces que puedan ofrecer servicios constantes de saneamiento básico, agua potable y educación en salud para esta población.O presente estudo avalia a situação epidemiológica das doenças tropicais negligenciadas (DTN) com maior ocorrência na Amazônia e sua associação com as vulnerabilidades socioambientais. Foi realizado um estudo ecológico, descritivo, no período entre 2007 e 2016 acerca das DTN notificadas, além de dados sobre o Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano Municipal (IDHM), saneamento básico e o crescimento populacional nas capitais da Amazônia Legal. Os dados obtidos foram organizados em planilhas Excel para a aplicação da estatística descritiva, análise de componentes principais (PCA) e análise hierárquica de agrupamentos (HCA). As doenças notificadas foram dengue, tuberculose, leishmaniose tegumentar americana, esquistossomose, leishmaniose visceral e doença de Chagas. Todas as capitais apresentaram, ao menos, quatro DTN. Estes dados foram confirmados através do PCA e HCA, que constataram que as DTN identificadas puderam ser agrupadas por similaridades entre os valores. A maioria das capitais apresentaram crescimento populacional e IDHM elevados nos últimos anos, no entanto, os serviços de esgotamento sanitário e abastecimento de água deixam a desejar. O estudo mostrou que há uma associação entre as doenças notificadas e os dados de crescimento populacional e saneamento básico, os quais podem evidenciar uma negligência geográfica. Uma forma de mudar essa realidade epidemiológica na Amazônia é elaborando políticas públicas, com planejamento financeiro direcionado para a realização de projetos viáveis e eficazes que ofereçam serviços constantes de saneamento básico, água potável e educação em saúde para esta população.Research, Society and Development2020-08-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/750210.33448/rsd-v9i9.7502Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 9; e502997502Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 9; e502997502Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 9; e5029975022525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/7502/6682Copyright (c) 2020 Alcione Pinheiro de Oliveira; Enilde Santos de Aguiar; Altem Nascimento Ponteshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Alcione Pinheiro de Aguiar, Enilde Santos de Pontes, Altem Nascimento2020-09-18T01:42:11Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/7502Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:30:12.322084Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
