“…This mechanism may help to explain why Portugal was the only country where ischemic heart disease mortality was still higher in nonmanual occupational classes in the 1980s. Of all countries included in this study, Portugal has the lowest national income and one of the largest income inequalities.5859 The positive gradient in ischemic heart disease mortality in Portugal resembles those observed in studies from low-income countries elsewhere in the world.60 62 aNo data were available for these age groups.

OBJECTIVES: Twelve countries were compared with respect to occupational class differences in ischemic heart disease mortality in order to identify factors that are associated with smaller or larger mortality differences. METHODS: Data on mortality by occupational class among men aged 30 to 64 years were obtained from national longitudinal or cross-sectional studies for the 1980s. A common occupational class scheme was applied to most countries. Potential effects of the main data problems were evaluated quantitatively. RESULTS: A north-south contrast existed within Europe. In England and Wales, Ireland, and Nordic countries, manual classes had higher mortality rates than nonmanual classes. In France, Switzerland, and Mediterranean countries, manual classes had mortality rates as low as, or lower than, those among nonmanual classes. Compared with Northern Europe, mortality differences in the United States were smaller (among men aged 30-44 years) or about as large (among men aged 45-64 years). CONCLUSIONS: The results underline the highly variable nature of socioeconomic inequalities in ischemic heart disease mortality. These inequalities appear to be highly sensitive to social gradients in behavioral risk factors. These risk factor gradients are determined by cultural as well as socioeconomic developments.

“…In order to reduce confounding sources (age, geographic area and time), we used standardised rates obtained via a direct method, using the 2000 census of the Brazilian population as the reference; different populations in this study cannot be compared with each other because there are differences in the age structure (Rumel 1988, Laurenti et al 2005. The indicator used for the values, evolution and comparison of mortality was the standard rate of mortality per gender and age, using the age structure of the 2000 census of the Brazilian population as the reference.…”

“…E diversos estudos apontam que as mortes por causas externas apresentam epidemiologia diferente de acordo com a situação socioeconômica dos indivíduos [7][8][9] . Dessa forma, distribuem-se de forma desigual, quantitativa e qualitativamente, tanto entre as diferentes classes sociais quanto em um mesmo grupo socioeconômico.…”

As causas externas apresentam distribuição desigual entre diferentes grupos populacionais. Esta pesquisa buscou verificar se há diferença nos óbitos por causas externas entre médicos e advogados, profissões de um mesmo grupo socioeconômico. Foi realizado um estudo transversal dos laudos de necropsias realizadas em médicos e advogados no IML-BH no período de 2006 a 2012. Foram analisados 107 laudos, sendo 39 de médicos (36%) e 68 de advogados (64%). Em ambos os grupos houve predominância de indivíduos do sexo masculino, com idade superior a 49 anos e a maioria vivia sozinha. As principais circunstâncias dos óbitos nos dois grupos foram acidentes de trânsito, suicídio e homicídio, nesta ordem de prevalência. Como não houve diferença estatística na maioria das variáveis analisadas e o poder do estudo foi inferior a 80%, não foi possível com os dados avaliados afirmar diferenças nos óbitos por causas externas entre as duas ocupações. Apesar deste estudo não apresentar poder suficiente para demonstrar associação entre a circunstância do óbito e a profissão, sua relevância encontra-se na descrição do perfil epidemiológico destes profissionais em relação às mortes por causas externas. O seu conhecimento pode orientar ações preventivas em relação a essa causa de mortalidade, contribuindo para medidas de saúde pública.
