Suicide time trends in Brazil from 1980 to 2005

Cadernos De Saude Publica, 2010

The aim of this study was to describe suicide time trends in Brazil from 1980Brazil from to 2005. The data were obtained from the National Mortality Information System and the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). Suicides rates were calculated for the entire period for the country as a whole and the 26 States and Federal District. Annual increases or decreases in mortality rates were also estimated using Prais-Winsten generalized linear regression. The mean suicide rate was 4.12 per 100,000 inhabitants (6.45/100,000 in men and 1.80/100,000 in women). The study showed an increasing suicide trend in men (+1.41% per year, 95%CI: 1.00;1.23) and a decreasing trend in women (-0.53% per year, 95%CI: -0.04;-1.02). Suicide rates increased with age. In general, for all age groups and for both genders, the highest rates were in São Paulo and in the States of the South and Central-West regions. Temporal Distribution; Mortality Rate; Suicide

Epidemiological analysis of suicide in Brazil from 1980 to 2006 Análise epidemiológica do suicídio no Brasil entre 1980 e 2006

Objective: The objective of this study was to carry out an epidemiological analysis of the suicide rates found in Brazilian regions and state capitals between 1980 and 2006. Method: Data on mortality rates due to suicide were collected from the the Brazilian Public Health System -DATASUS). Results: A total of 158,952 suicide cases were registered between 1980 and 2006, excluding those cases in which the individual was less than 10 years old (n = 68). In the period under study, the total suicide rate in Brazil increased from 4.4 to 5.7 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants (29.5%). Higher average rates were found in the South (9.3) and Central-West (6.1) regions. Men were more likely to commit suicide. The highest suicide rates were found in the 70-years or above age range while the highest increases were found in the 20 to 59 year age bracket. The most dominant social-demographic characteristics of the persons who committed suicide in the period under study were low educational level and singlehood. The most common methods of suicide were hanging, fire arms and poisoning. Conclusion: Although in Brazil the rate increased 29.5% in 26 years, the national rate is still considered to be low when compared to worldwide suicide rates (average of 4.9 per 100,000 inhabitants). Suicide rates in Brazilian regions vary broadly, ranging from 2.7 to 9.3. Descriptors: Suicide; Epidemiology; Gender; Elderly; Brazil Resumo Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma análise epidemiológica dos índices de suicídio registrados entre 1980 e 2006 nas regiões e capitais estaduais. Método: Dados referentes à taxa de mortalidade devido ao suicídio foram coletados do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde. Resultados: Entre 1980 e 2006, foi registrado um total de 158.952 casos de suicídio, excluindo-se os casos nos quais os indivíduos tinham menos de 10 anos de idade (n = 68). No período estudado, o índice total de suicídio cresceu de 4,4 para 5,7 mortes por 100.000 habitantes (29,5%). Os índices médios mais altos foram registrados nas regiões Sul (9,3) e Centro-Oeste (6,1). Os homens são os que têm a maior probabilidade de cometer suicídio. Os índices mais altos de suicídio foram registrados na faixa etária de 70 anos ou mais, enquanto que os maiores aumentos aconteceram na faixa etária dos 20 aos 59 anos. As principais características sociodemográficas das pessoas que cometeram suicídio durante o período estudado foram baixo nível educacional e estado civil solteiro. Os métodos mais comuns de suicídio foram por enforcamento, armas de fogo e envenenamento. Conclusão: Embora o índice brasileiro tenha crescido 29,5% em 26 anos, o índice nacional ainda é considerado baixo se comparado aos índices de suicídio mundiais (média de 4,9 por 100.000 habitantes). Os índices de suicídio nas regiões brasileiras variam muito, ou seja, estão entre 2,7 e 9,3.

Mortality and years of life lost to suicide in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, 2000-2015

Acta Scientiarum. Health Sciences

Analyze the epidemiological profile of and years of life lost to suicide in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, from 2000 to 2015. This is an ecological study in which data on death were sourced from the Mortality Information System. Years of Potential Life Lost were calculated over the historical series. A total of 2,266 deaths by suicide were analyzed, identified during the period, with the most frequent cases being those occurring at home, by hanging, among men, black people, single people and the elderly. More Years of Potential Life Lost were counted in the economically active age group (30-39 years old). Thus, recognizing the epidemiological characteristics of suicide in Rio Grande do Norte may guide more effective actions and strategies targeting risk populations and reinforces the need for further studies focusing on regions with the highest rates in the state. Moreover, mental health care must be adapted to age and gender, besides approaching social support needs and feeling of be...

Descriptive study of the epidemiological profile of deaths by suicide in the state of Roraima, Brazil, from 2014 to 2017

ABCS Health Sciences, 2020

Introduction: Suicide is one of the top three reasons of death worldwide for the 15- to 44-year age range. The Brazilian state of Roraima has shown indicators that draw attention when compared to national rates of suicide. In this sense, for the proposal of preventive measures appropriate to the state’s reality, it is important to understand the local epidemiological particularities. Objective: to identify the epidemiological profile of deaths by suicide in the state of Roraima, Brazil, between 2014 and 2017. Methods: Descriptive, population-based documentary research. The source of information was the database from the Brazilian public health system (DATASUS). The analysis included deaths by residence caused by suicide from 2014 to 2017. Cut-outs were established according to the variables incidence by municipality, marital status, age, gender, color/race, place of occurrence and method of suicide. Results: 176 deaths were reported in the state of Roraima during the period studied....

Analysis of Age, Period, and Birth Cohort Effects on Suicide Mortality in Brazil and the Five Major Geographic Regions

Research Square (Research Square), 2022

Objective: Estimate the effects of age, period, and birth cohort on suicide mortality in Brazil and by major geographic region in the overall population and by sex. Methods: This was a time trend ecological study. National and regional suicide mortality data from 1981 to 2015 were analyzed for the overall population and by sex. Age, period, and cohort effects were calculated with a Poisson regression model, using estimable functions with the Epi package of the R statistical program, version 3.4.3. Results: Except for the North of Brazil and the female population in the Central-West region, the model that best ts the data was the complete model, following by the age-period model in most of the analyses. Conclusions: Suicide mortality rates have shown an upward trend with advancing age in the Brazilian population, in both men and women. However, the behavior of the period effect and cohort has depended on the population analyzed and regional distribution.

Suicide attempts in Brazil, 1998–2014: an ecological study

2016

BackgroundAttempted suicide is the main predictor of suicide constituting a major public health issue worldwide. It is estimated that for every completed suicide, 10 to 20 suicide attempts occur. Important part of the occurrences of suicide attempts in Brazil are registered in the hospital information system for coverage of more than 70 % allows to evaluate the extent of this problem in the country. The scope of this article is to analyse hospitalizations resulting from suicide attempts at public hospitals or services contracted out by the public health system (SUS) in Brazil from 1998 to 2014.MethodsThis is an ecological study of secondary morbidity data obtained from the Hospital Information System. The overall rate of suicide attempts per 100 000 (105) individuals and rates stratified by age group and sex were calculated. To measure trends, simple linear regression coefficients were calculated. The hospital mortality rate was calculated per 100 individuals.ResultsThe overall rate...
