Resumo: The study aimed to analyze epidemiological data in the period from 2001 to 2017 of leprosy in Maranhão, a chronic infectious disease caused by the bacillus Mycobacterium Leprae, which affects the skin and nerves, in order to raise the debate about the epidemiological situation of the disease in the state of Maranhão, Brazil . The data analyzed were the rates of detection of new cases in the general population and of cases with grade II incapacity in Maranhão. Through linear regression using the Prais-Winsten method, it was possible to identify a decreasing trend in the annual detection rate in the general population and a stationary trend in the detection rate with grade II disability. However, the detection rate of new cases in 2017 was 44.49 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, with a high rate, classifying maranhão as hyper-endemic. The state showed decreasing detection rates in the general population (APC of -2.76; IC95%: -3.50; -2.01) and in patients with grade II physical disability (APC: -0.07; IC95%: -0.15; -0.00). Thus, it is observed that there have been advances in the fight against leprosy in the state, however, better studies on the reliability of the data and greater effort in combating the disease are suggested, given that it still has high rates in Maranhão.

Los datos analizados fueron las tasas de detección de nuevos casos en la población general y de casos con discapacidad grado II en Maranhão. Mediante regresión lineal utilizando el método de Prais-Winsten, fue posible identificar una tendencia decreciente en la tasa de detección anual en la población general y una tendencia estacionaria en la tasa de detección con discapacidad de grado II. Sin embargo, la tasa de detección de nuevos casos en 2017 fue de 44,49 casos por 100.000 habitantes, con una alta tasa, lo que clasifica a maranhão como hiperendémica. El estado mostró tasas de detección decrecientes en la población general (APC de -2,76; IC del 95% -3,50; -2,01) y en pacientes con discapacidad física de grado II (APC: -0,07; IC del 95%: -0,15; -0,00). Así, se observa que ha habido avances en la lucha contra la lepra en el estado, sin embargo, se sugieren mejores estudios sobre la confiabilidad de los datos y un mayor esfuerzo en el combate de la enfermedad, dado que todavía tiene altas tasas en Maranhão.O estudo objetivou analisar dados epidemiológicos no período de 2001 a 2017 da hanseníase no Maranhão, doença infectocontagiosa crônica causada pelo bacilo Mycobacterium Leprae, que afeta a pele e nervos, para assim suscitar o debate sobre a situação epidemiológica da doença no estado do Maranhão, Brasil. Os dados analisados foram as taxas de detecção de novos casos na população geral e de casos com grau II de incapacidade no maranhão. Através de regressão linear pelo método de Prais-Winsten foi possível identificar uma tendência decrescente da taxa de detecção anual na população geral e tendência estacionária da taxa de detecção com grau II de incapacidade. Contudo, a taxa de detecção de novos casos em 2017 foi de 44,49 casos por 100.000 habitantes, considerada alta, classificando o maranhão como hiperendêmico. O estado apresentou taxas decrescentes de detecção em população geral (APC de -2,76; IC95% -3,50;-2,01)  e em doentes com grau II de incapacidade física (APC: -0,07; IC95%:-0,15;-0,00). Dessa forma, observa-se que houve avanços no combate à hanseníase no estado, porém, sugere-se melhores estudos sobre a confiabilidade dos dados e maior esforço no combate à doença, haja vista que ainda apresenta altas taxas no Maranhão.Research, Society and Development2020-09-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/802910.33448/rsd-v9i9.8029Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 9; e848998029Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 9; e848998029Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 9; e8489980292525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/8029/7119Copyright (c) 2020 Danilo Pavão e Pavão; Brendha Luanny Moreira Ribeiro; Flavio Guilherme Rodrigues Costa; Wyldson Varge Sousa; Dênis da Silva Barros; Fracyelle Costa Moraeshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPavão, Danilo Pavão eRibeiro, Brendha Luanny MoreiraCosta, Flavio Guilherme RodriguesSousa, Wyldson Varge Barros, Dênis da SilvaMoraes, Fracyelle Costa2020-09-18T01:42:11Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/8029Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:30:35.957748Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
