Analysis of space and epidemiological distribution of hepatitis b and c cases in municipaly maranhão / Análise da distribuição espacial e epidemiológica dos casos de hepatite b e c em município maranhense

“…27 It is imperative that these determinants be improved and should receive top priority as economic, environmental, and lifestyle factors are intertwined with problems related to access and health care. 28 Although the use of geoprocessing is still incipient in the analysis of health indicators, its use expands the knowledge of health determinants, adding an important gain to the instruments and indicators already used in epidemiological studies, health policies, and actions focused on regions of greater distribution of cases. 7,29 It is worth mentioning here that: since the database is based on the notification forms of viral hepatitis from SINAN, the large amount of ignored or blank information, and the incompleteness of the information (many of them essential) made data analysis difficult, weakening the methodological and statistical rigor.…”

Cumulative Environmental Vulnerability Assessment in the Area of Influence of the Pecém Port Industrial Complex (Ceará, Brazil): A Spatial Analysis

“…The study sought cumulative environmental risk in a location in the Greater Fortaleza, Metropolitan Region of the capital of the state of Ceará, Brazil. This study site was chosen because of the implementation, initiated in the mid-90s, of the Pecém Port Industrial Complex, considering that the performance of new economic activities in territories with specific geographical, demographic, and social characteristics usually brings harmful consequences to population well-being [17]. In the present case, the development of the port and of steel, thermoelectric, and other industrial activities, appears to have also led to significant economic transformations (variations of GDP and its repercussions), and social transformations (variations in the HDI, migratory flows, demographically high-density areas, expropriation, and resettlement of population groups).…”

“…Por outro lado, o impacto de programas foi o menos avaliado. Segundo Silveira e Fenner 18 , impacto está relacionado às alterações nos riscos à saúde, que podem ser positivas ou negativas, individuais ou coletivas, causadas pelo programa. Em razão da amostra desta revisão ser pequena, não é possível assegurar que os seus achados quanto a frequência de estudos de avaliação de impacto de programas de saúde não condizem com os resultados da pesquisa de Balby 19 , que apontou um significativo número de publicações de Avaliação de Impacto à Saúde, as quais abordam os potenciais impactos à saúde relacionados a políticas, planos, bem como programas governamentais.…”
