Resumo: | This retrospective observational cross-sectional study aimed to analyze the distribution of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) cases in Três Lagoas registered between January 2007 and August 2021, through data processed by the Epidemiological Surveillance Service based on the notification of the National System of Diseases and Notifications. In this period, 231 cases were confirmed, being 137 male (59.3%) and 94 female (40.7%). Was observed a higher prevalence of cases between ages 0-4 years (30.8%), 20-39 (22.5%) and 40-59 (19.9%). Also was observed a higher percentage of infected Caucasian individuals (45.4%) and individuals with low education: elementary school II (22.1%). The most prevalent clinical manifestations were fever (85.3%), splenomegaly (76.6%), weakness (67.1%), weight loss (65.8%) and hepatomegaly (62.8%). It was found that 80.1% of patients received pharmacological treatment, mainly using pentavalent antimonials (56.7%), and that 26 patients (11.3%) died during the period due to complications caused by VL. The spatial analysis showed a homogeneous distribution of VL cases in the city's urban perimeter without predominant regions. Finally, it was observed that the incidence and mortality by VL has been decreasing in recent years, however maintaining high rates of lethality and transmissibility, placing the municipality in the third with the highest transmission rate in the state. In view of these aspects, we conclude that VL is still a serious public health problem in the city and that despite the slight drop in incidence and mortality rates, it still presents values higher than the national average and high dissemination of the disease in the urban area. |

En este período se confirmaron 231 casos, siendo 137 hombres (59,3%) y 94 mujeres (40,7%). Se observó una mayor prevalencia de casos entre las edades de 0-4 años (30,8%), 20-39 (22,5%) y 40-59 (19,9%). También se observó un mayor porcentaje de individuos caucásicos infectados (45,4%) y de personas con bajo nivel educativo: escuela primaria II (22,1%). Las manifestaciones clínicas más prevalentes fueron fiebre (85,3%), esplenomegalia (76,6%), debilidad (67,1%), pérdida de peso (65,8%) y hepatomegalia (62,8%). Se encontró que el 80,1% de los pacientes recibieron tratamiento farmacológico, principalmente con antimoniales pentavalentes (56,7%), y que 26 pacientes (11,3%) fallecieron durante el período por complicaciones provocadas por LV. El análisis espacial mostró una distribución homogénea de casos de LV en el perímetro urbano de la ciudad sin regiones predominantes. Finalmente, se observó que la incidencia y mortalidad por LV ha venido disminuyendo en los últimos años, sin embargo, manteniendo altas tasas de letalidad y transmisibilidad, colocando al municipio en el tercero lugar con mayor tasa de transmisión del estado. Teniendo en cuenta estos aspectos, se concluye que la LV sigue siendo un grave problema de salud pública en la ciudad y que, a pesar de la leve caída de las tasas de incidencia y mortalidad, aún presenta valores superiores a la media nacional y alta diseminación de la enfermedad en la zona urbana.Este estudo transversal observacional retrospectivo teve como objetivo analisar a distribuição dos casos de leishmaniose visceral (LV) em Três Lagoas registrados entre janeiro de 2007 e agosto de 2021, por meio de dados processados pelo Serviço de Vigilância Epidemiológica com base na notificação do Sistema Nacional de Agravos e Notificações. Nesse período, foram confirmados 231 casos, sendo 137 homens (59,3%) e 94 mulheres (40,7%). Observou-se maior prevalência de casos entre as idades de 0-4 anos (30,8%), 20-39 (22,5%) e 40-59 (19,9%). Também foi observado maior percentual de infectados da raça branca (45,4%) e de baixa escolaridade: ensino fundamental II (22,1%). As manifestações clínicas mais prevalentes foram: febre (85,3%), esplenomegalia (76,6%), fraqueza (67,1%), emagrecimento (65,8%) e hepatomegalia (62,8%). Verificou-se que 80,1% dos pacientes receberam tratamento farmacológico, principalmente com antimoniais pentavalentes (56,7%), e que 26 pacientes (11,3%) morreram no período devido a complicações decorrentes da LV. A análise espacial mostrou uma distribuição homogênea dos casos de LV no perímetro urbano da cidade sem regiões predominantes. Por fim, observou-se que a incidência e mortalidade por LV vem diminuindo nos últimos anos, porém mantendo elevados índices de letalidade e transmissibilidade, posicionando o município no terceiro lugar com maior taxa de transmissão do estado. Diante desses aspectos, concluímos que a LV ainda é um grave problema de saúde pública no município e que apesar da ligeira queda nas taxas de incidência e mortalidade, ainda apresenta valores superiores à média nacional e alta disseminação da doença na área urbana.Research, Society and Development2021-12-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2325810.33448/rsd-v10i16.23258Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 16; e72101623258Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 16; e72101623258Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 16; e721016232582525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/23258/20731Copyright (c) 2021 Giovanna Bruna de Almeida Carvalho; João Victor Camargo Caldeira; Mirian Daiane de Oliveira; Juliano Yasuo Oda; Alex Martins Machado; Aline Rafaela da Silva Rodrigues Machadohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCarvalho, Giovanna Bruna de Almeida Caldeira, João Victor Camargo Oliveira, Mirian Daiane de Oda, Juliano YasuoMachado, Alex Martins Machado, Aline Rafaela da Silva Rodrigues 2021-12-20T11:03:07Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/23258Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:42:11.453265Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
