Resumo: The northeast of Brazil stands out for having a high prevalence of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), being indicated as the main endemic region of Brazil. This fact makes epidemiological studies in the region of great value, as they help to design more assertive public health policies for the control of VL. In this context, this research aims to outline the epidemiological profile of VL between 2007 and 2019 and outline a profile of vulnerability to the disease in the state of Bahia. This is a sectional, exploratory, descriptive, quantitative and retrospective study. The data used related to VL cases in the state of Bahia come from the SINAN database (Information System and Notifiable Diseases). Data analysis was performed using the GraphPad Prism program. Bahia represents the third state with the highest number of notified VL cases in northeastern Brazil between 2007 and 2019, with a total of 4,156 notified cases. A spatial analysis of this distribution demonstrates that Juazeiro (146 cases) and Guanambi (125 cases) are the municipalities in Bahia with the highest number of reported cases in the period evaluated. Through a stratified analysis of the data, we observed a greater vulnerability among males, browns, with a low level of education and aged 1-4 years. With this work, we reinforce the endemic character of visceral leishmaniasis in the state of Bahia and the need to adopt public health policies aimed at combating VL.

Este hecho hace que los estudios epidemiológicos en la región sean de gran valor, ya que ayudan a diseñar políticas de salud pública más asertivas para el control de la LV. En este contexto, esta investigación tiene como objetivo perfilar el perfil epidemiológico de la LV entre 2007 y 2019 y perfilar un perfil de vulnerabilidad a la enfermedad en el estado de Bahía. Se trata de un estudio seccional, exploratorio, descriptivo, cuantitativo y retrospectivo. Los datos utilizados relacionados con los casos de LV en el estado de Bahía provienen de la base de datos SINAN (Sistema de Información y Enfermedades Notificables). El análisis de datos se realizó utilizando el programa GraphPad Prism. Bahía representa el tercer estado con el mayor número de casos de LV notificados en el noreste de Brasil entre 2007 y 2019, con un total de 4.156 casos notificados. Un análisis espacial de esta distribución demuestra que Juazeiro (146 casos) y Guanambi (125 casos) son los municipios de Bahía con mayor número de casos notificados en el período evaluado. A través de un análisis estratificado de los datos, se observó una mayor vulnerabilidad entre los varones, morenos, con bajo nivel educativo y de 1 a 4 años. Con este trabajo reforzamos el carácter endémico de la leishmaniasis visceral en el estado de Bahía y la necesidad de adoptar políticas de salud pública dirigidas a combatir la LV.O nordeste brasileiro destaca-se por ter uma elevada prevalência de leishmaniose visceral (LV), sendo indicado como a principal região endêmica do Brasil. Tal fato torna de grande valia estudos epidemiológicos na região, visto que ajudam a traçar políticas públicas de saúde mais assertivas para o controle da LV. Nesse contexto, a presente investigação visa delinear o perfil epidemiológico da LV entre os anos de 2007 e 2019 e traçar um perfil de vulnerabilidade frente a doença no estado da Bahia. Trata-se de um estudo seccional, de caráter exploratório, descritivo, quantitativo e retrospectivo. Os dados utilizados relacionados a casos de LV no estado da Bahia são provenientes da base de dados SINAN (Sistema de Informação e Agravos de Notificação). A análise dos dados foi realizada utilizado o programa GraphPad Prism. A Bahia representa o terceiro estado com maior número de casos notificados de LV no nordeste brasileiro entre os anos de 2007 e 2019, com um total de 4.156 casos notificados. Uma análise espacial dessa distribuição demonstra que Juazeiro (146 casos) e Guanambi (125 casos) são os municípios baianos com o maior número de casos notificados no período avaliado. Através de uma análise estratificada dos dados observamos uma maior vulnerabilidade entre os indivíduos do sexo masculino, pardos, com baixo nível de escolaridade e na faixa etária de 1-4 anos. Com o presente trabalho, reforçamos o caráter endêmico da leishmaniose visceral no estado da Bahia e a necessidade de adotar políticas públicas de saúde visando o combate a LV.Research, Society and Development2021-11-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2212210.33448/rsd-v10i14.22122Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 14; e368101422122Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 14; e368101422122Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 14; e3681014221222525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/22122/19670Copyright (c) 2021 Isabela Santos Cezar; Jéssica Santos Dias de Abreu; Dahara Keyse Carvalho Silva; Cássio Santana Meirahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCezar, Isabela Santos Abreu, Jéssica Santos Dias de Silva, Dahara Keyse Carvalho Meira, Cássio Santana 2021-12-04T11:48:39Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/22122Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:41:22.372806Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
