“…Research carried out by estimation, through modeling ( 34 ), shows significant underreporting of TB cases in the states of the North and Northeast, which can interfere with time series analyses. Furthermore, underreporting of TB deaths and/or incorrect classification of causes of death also have the potential to influence the total number of deaths, calculation of coefficients, and similarly, for incidence, trend analysis ( 35 ). Also, this study used secondary routine data for the analysis.…”

Objective. To analyze the temporal trend of tuberculosis incidence and mortality rates in Brazil between 2011 and 2019. Methods. This was an ecological time series study of tuberculosis incidence and mortality rates in Brazil between 2011 and 2019. Data were extracted from the Notifiable Disease Information System and the Mortality Information System, and population estimates were from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics. Trends were analyzed by Joinpoint regression, which recognizes inflection points for temporal analysis. Results. The average incidence rate of tuberculosis in Brazil in the period was 35.8 cases per 100 000 population. From 2011 to 2015, this coefficient had an annual percentage change of –1.9% (95% CI [–3.4, –0.5]) followed by an increase of 2.4% (95% CI [0.9, 3.9]) until 2019. The average mortality rate between 2011 and 2019 was 2.2 deaths per 100 000 population, with an average annual percentage change of –0.4% (95% CI [–1.0, 0.2]). Amazonas was the only state with an increase in the annual average percentage variation for the incidence rate (3.2%; 95% CI [1.3, 5.1]) and mortality rate (2.7%; 95% CI [1.0, 4.4]) over the years, while Rio de Janeiro state had an increasing inflection for incidence from 2014 to 2019 (2.4%; 95% CI [1.4, 3.5]) and annual average of decreasing percentage variation (–3.5%; 95% CI [–5.0, –1.9]). Conclusions. During the period analyzed, a decreasing trend in incidence was observed between 2011 and 2015, and an increasing trend for the period from 2015 to 2019. On the other hand, no change in the trend for mortality was found in Brazil.

Resumo Objetivo: Apresentar metodologia padronizada para vinculação de diferentes bancos de dados em saúde pública. Métodos: Artigo de revisão metodológica, com descrição específica de processos de tratamento de dados para vinculação (linkage) determinística entre bancos de dados estruturados. Instruiu-se como tratar os dados, selecionar chaves de vinculação e vincular os bancos, utilizando-se dois bancos de dados simulados no software R. Resultados: Foram apresentados os comandos utilizados para a vinculação determinística, do tipo inner_join. O processo de vinculação resultou em um banco de dados com 40.108 pares ao se utilizar apenas a chave “Nome”. Com a adição da segunda chave, “Nome da mãe”, o resultado caiu para 112 pares. Ao adicionar a terceira chave, “Data de nascimento”, apenas dois pares foram identificados. Conclusão: A vinculação de bancos de dados e suas análises são ferramentas válidas e úteis para os serviços de saúde, no apoio a ações de vigilância em saúde.

“…Probabilistic data linkage has yielded favourable results in research across various fields of knowledge and provided evidence for quality health outcomes within the public health sector [ 5 , 6 , 7 ]. However, the linkage not only depends on specialised human resources but also relies on the quality of data within these HIS records, and the availability of computational processing power for the task [ 2 ].…”

Objective: The objective is to describe the results and the methodological processes of record linkage for matching deaths and malaria cases. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with probabilistic record linkage of death and malaria cases data in Brazil from 2011 to 2020 using death records from the Mortality Information System (SIM) and epidemiological data from the Notifiable Diseases Information System (Sinan) and Epidemiological Surveillance Information Systems for malaria (Sivep-Malaria). Three matching keys were used: patient’s name, date of birth, and mother’s name, with an analysis of cosine and Levenshtein dissimilarity measures. Results: A total of 490 malaria deaths were recorded in Brazil between 2011 and 2020. The record linkage resulted in the pairing of 216 deaths (44.0%). Pairings where all three matching keys were identical accounted for 30.1% of the total matched deaths, 39.4% of the matched deaths had two identical variables, and 30.5% had only one of the three key variables identical. The distribution of the variables of the matched deaths (216) was similar to the distribution of all recorded deaths (490). Out of the 216 matched deaths, 80 (37.0%) had poorly specified causes of death in the SIM. Conclusions: The record linkage allowed for the detailing of the data with additional information from other epidemiological systems. Record linkage enables data linkage between information systems that lack interoperability and is an extremely useful tool for refining health situation analyses and improving malaria death surveillance in Brazil.
