The present study characterized the cattle movement network in the state of Goiás, Brazil, in the period from 2010 to 2016, by identifying the areas of greatest flow and the purposes for which these animals were moved. For this, an analysis of the data referring to 4,697,239 animal transit guides (GTA), specifically for bovines, issued between the years 2010 to 2016 was carried out. Data such as the number of animals transported, origin and destination, as well as purpose of movement (slaughter, finishing, reproduction, post-weaning, auctions, sports, exhibitions, exports, and others) were evaluated. The data were subjected to descriptive analysis, in which the animal movements were divided into quartiles. There was an intense movement of cattle throughout the state, mainly for the purposes of finishing and slaughter. Identifying the areas with the highest flow of animals, such as the northwest and south regions, is an important tool for planning actions and applying preventive measures against the spread of infectious agents through the territory of Goiás.
Objetivou-se analisar, em geral, os determinantes do acesso a medicamentos prescritos no âmbito do Sistema Único de Saúde- SUS nas regiões brasileiras, que tiveram prescrição no próprio sistema público e identificar possíveis determinantes das disparidades regionais deste acesso. Analisaram-se dados da Pesquisa Nacional de saúde – PNS em 2013. Através de métodos econométricos multivariados. A amostra foi composta por indivíduos que tiveram medicamentos receitados no SUS nas duas semanas anteriores à entrevista (n=11.910). A variável dependente foi o acesso à totalidade dos remédios receitados no sistema. Pouco menos da metade da população que teve medicamentos prescritos os obteve no próprio sistema público, número mais elevado entre os habitantes das regiões sul e sudeste, os de raça não branca, com menor escolaridade e entre aqueles que residem em domicílios cadastrados na Estratégia de Saúde da Família – ESF. As diferenças do acesso foram bem expressivas quando comparadas entre as regiões do Brasil. Os resultados reforçam a necessidade de políticas que diminuam as desigualdades no acesso a medicamentos no país.
