“…Advancing age increased the prevalence of traffic accidents. Adolescents were the most frequent victims of accidents involving motorcycles and bicycles, unlike what happened to children, where pedestrian-related accidents were more frequent, confirming what was described in the report by the World Health Organization [2] and studies by Farias et al [18] and Sousa et al [11]. Children's immature behavior of poor vigilance on roads and highways [19] and adolescents' use of motorcycles for work and leisure [20] may explain these findings.…”

“…Information on patients aged 0-9 was considered as belonging to children and individuals aged [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] to adolescents, as established by the WHO [14]. The sample comprised 1,088 records of children and adolescents, 996 of which had complete data for logistic regression analysis, from a total of 2,401 medical records, of which 1,271 corresponded to hospitalizations in 2016 and 1,130 to hospitalizations in 2017.…”

“…The World Health Organization also highlights that pedestrians and bicycle users are vulnerable individuals on public roads, with mortality or disabilities more prevalent in individuals who suffer transport accidents in these conditions than occupants of cars and other motor vehicles [2]. Sousa et al [11] suggest that children are the most vulnerable age group in transport accidents when using bicycles in recreational activities and Flaherty et al [12] reported that off-road vehicle-related injuries continue to be a major public health problem, especially for those younger than 18 years old.…”

Objective: To present the profile of hospitalizations due to transport accidents in individuals aged 0-19 years in a reference hospital for urgent and emergency traumatology care. Material and Methods: This retrospective study is grounded on analyzing medical records of children and adolescents hospitalized due to transport accidents in 2016 and 2017. The bivariate analyses included Chi-square and Fischer's exact tests and binary logistic regression, with a 5% significance level. Results: Four hundred and seventy-five (43.7%) of the 1,088 medical records investigated corresponded to transport accidents, and accidents involving motorcycles were the most frequent (68.3%), affecting adolescents (81.3%), while children were more involved in accidents as pedestrians (57.1%). Advancing age increases the likelihood of the outcome, with a significant association in the multivariate analysis (p<0.001). The mandible was most frequently affected in maxillofacial fractures. Conclusion: Transport accidents predominantly affect male adolescents, involving motorcycles, and the lower limbs are the most affected. The mandible was the most affected bone in maxillofacial fractures.

“…Na literatura, outros fatores contextuais associados ao óbito do ciclista, envolvem: o baixo uso de equipamentos de segurança apropriados (principalmente o capacete); a falta de uma cultura de inclusão do ciclista como participante do espaço urbano destinado aos deslocamentos e o comportamento inadequado de motoristas ao volante; a imprudência de motoristas, motociclistas e ciclistas intoxicados por bebidas alcoólicas ou drogas; a infraestrutura precária para pedalar; veículos automotores e bicicletas em mau estado; e a falta de fiscalização da lei 22,28,31,32 .…”

Resumo A bicicleta é um transporte barato e saudável, porém os acidentes constituem sua externalidade negativa. Objetivou-se descrever as características dos óbitos de ciclistas, sua evolução recente e o papel da estrutura cicloviária no município de São Paulo. Estudo descritivo utilizando informações do Sistema de Informações de Mortalidade (SIM-DATASUS) entre 2000-2017. A relação entre taxa de mortalidade de ciclistas e malha cicloviária foi avaliada por meio de teste de correlação de Pearson. Foi realizada uma comparação com as viagens de bicicleta no mesmo período. O perfil sociodemográfico dos óbitos foi comparado com o da população geral. A taxa de mortalidade atingiu pico de 7,91/milhão de habitantes em 2006 e diminuiu até 1,8/milhão em 2017; neste período houve aumento das viagens de bicicleta e da estrutura cicloviária. Observou-se correlação negativa entre a taxa de mortalidade e a estrutura cicloviária. A análise dos óbitos indica perfil predominantemente masculino, branco, jovem, com ≤7 anos de estudo; 65% morreram em colisão com veículos. Observou-se diminuição dos óbitos de ciclistas no município de São Paulo correlacionada ao incremento de ciclovias a partir de 2008, em um cenário de aumento da demanda por transporte em bicicleta.

“…For this reason, the researchers believe that motorcyclists have to be given priority during interventions in order to reduce the number of injuries and deaths in crashes (15). Since motorcyclists are usually young, active individuals and usually come from lower and middle-income classes, being involved in a crash would impose high medical expenses on their families, which would cause issues aside from the pain and suffering due to injuries (16).…”

Background: Road traffic injuries (RTIs) are one of the main causes of death and disability throughout the world. In this regard, motorcyclists constitute the most vulnerable groups. By investigating the epidemiological characteristics of motorcycle crashes, we can attain valuable information about research priorities. Objectives: We decided to conduct this study aiming at determining the epidemiological pattern of RTIs among motorcyclists in Shiraz in 2013-2016. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we reviewed all information related to motorcycle crashes that took place in Shiraz from January 2013 to December 2016. The injured motorcyclists were classified according to their age, gender, the severity of the injury, injured region, length of hospital stay, hospital-acquired infections, and the outcomes. We also performed a logistic regression analysis to determine the risk factors for fatality in motorcycle crashes. Results: According to our results, from all motorcycle crashes, 13577 (91.5%) were related to men and 1258 (8.5%) to women. Furthermore, most injured motorcyclists were in the 15-29-year-old age group. Crashes mostly occurred on weekends and in warm seasons. A hospital stay of more than one month (OR = 4.93, CI: 2.32-10.46) and an ISS of 9-15 (OR = 7.56, CI: 3.68-15.56) were the most effective risk factors for motorcyclist fatality. Conclusions: According to the study, since most motorcycle crashes involved the youth, enforcing stricter laws and cultural developments towards correcting risky behaviors can be very important in reducing the rates of death and disability.
