“…A database study showed a reduction in coefficients of mortality from CC among female residents of the city of Recife, the capital of the federal state of Pernambuco in Northeast Brazil. Our results demonstrate an increase in the mortality rate from CC, which is discordant because our number of deaths is from a wider geographical and population coverage [30].…”

Cervical cancer is the second most common form of cancer in the world among women, and it is estimated to be the third most frequent cancer in Brazil, as well as the fourth leading cause of death from cancer. There is a difference in cervical cancer mortality rates among different administrative regions in Brazil along with an inadequate distribution of cancer centers in certain Brazilian regions. Herein, we analyze the trends in hospital admission and mortality rates for CC between 2000 and 2012. This population-based ecological study evaluated the temporal trend in cervical cancer between the years 2000 and 2012, stratifying by Brazilian administrative regions. The North and Northeast regions had no reduction in mortality in all age groups studied (25 to 64 years); when analyzing hospitalization rates, only the age group of 50 to 64 years from the North Region did not present a reduction. During the years studied, in the South Region, the age group ranging from 50 to 54 years had the greatest reduction in mortality rates (β = −0.59, p = 0.001, r2 = 0.63), and the group ranging from 45 to 49 years had the greatest reduction in hospital admission rates (β = −8.87, p = 0.025, r2 = 0.37). Between the years 2000 and 2012, the greatest reduction in the incidence of UCC was in the South Region (β = −1.43, p = 0.236, r2 = 0.12) followed by the Central-West (β = −1, p <0.001, r2 = 0.84), the Southeast (β = −0.95, p <0.001, r2 = 0.88), the Northeast (β = −0.67, p = 0.080, r2 = 0.25), and, finally, by the North (β = −0.42, p = 0.157, r2 = 0.17). There was a greater reduction in mortality rates and global hospitalization rates for CC in Brazil than in the United States during the same period with exceptions only in Brazil’s North and Northeast regions.

“…An American study shows that 54% of women with cervical cancer are diagnosed under 50 years of age, followed by women aged 50-69 years (33%) and with localized diseases (14) . In an ecological study of time series conducted in Brazil, it was observed that the risk of death from cervical cancer increases in women from 60 years of age (15) .…”

Objective: to analyze the sociodemographic and clinical profile of women with gynecological cancer in brachytherapy. Method: a cross-sectional study including records of 1,930 visits of women in brachytherapy assisted between 2006-2016 in Santa Catarina (Brazil). Collection was performed in 2019, in an institutional bank, submitted to frequency measurements, chi-square test, 95% confidence intervals, significance level of 0.05. Results: women aged 40-59 years (47.2%), white (93.3%); with elementary school (65%); cervical cancer (78.5%); stages II-III (73.3%) figured prominently. In the comparison of staging proportions in the topography variable, a higher proportion of malignant neoplasm of cervix uteri unspecified in the grouped III-IV staging (84.6%). Conclusion: the profile analysis shows the need for screening and health education for prevention and/or early detection of gynecological cancers and training of nurses specialized in radiotherapy to care for women’s health.

A Agência Internacional de Pesquisa em Câncer (IARC), que faz parte da OMS, apontou que 14 milhões de novos casos foram notificados no ano de 2012, sendo cerca de 60% na África, Ásia, América Central e do Sul (Nascimento et al, 2018). Estima-se cerca de 600 mil casos novos registrados no Brasil por ano nos anos 2018-2019, sendo em sua maioria em estágio avançado da doença (INCA, 2018).…”

INTRODUCTION: Cancer and its treatment can affect the ability to feed, which require enteral nutritional therapy, requires appropriate self-care and care. Objective: to know the self-care/care of people with cancer using medical feeding devices in a city of the state of Minas Gerais. METHOD: qualitative investigation obtained by means of interviews recorded, using a semi-structured instrument, with people assisted in a reference center in oncology. RESULTS: built the central theme Requirements for self-care/universal care for health deviation: propelling and restraining forces and as sub-themes facilitators for self-care engagement and complicators for self-care engagement/care. CONCLUSIONS: the results contribute to the praxis of health professionals, especially nurses, to rethink the relevance of the guidelines in the process of transition from hospital to home and to recognize that each person has a differentiated of learning and all patients have the potential for care/self-care.

Decline of mortality from cervical cancer

Abstract: Additional efforts towards maintaining early detection and health education programs and towards using therapeutic strategies of greater efficiency are needed, given that mortality due to this form of cancer is considered avoidable when diagnosed early.
