“…In these districts, there is a prominence of neighborhoods that have precarious environmental sanitation conditions, deficit in the continuous water supply, inappropriate collection and disposal of solid wastes, and lack of clean water storage in residence, thus encouraging mosquito breeding that corroborates with study 14 findings.…”

“…With regard to sex, the highest occurrence of confirmed cases of dengue in women is a pattern already reported by studies that affirm that this group is more affected, owing to the vector's residential characteristic [14][15] . However, a research 16 reported that the highest concentration of cases in women can be derived from the higher use of health services by this group when compared with men, resulting in possible notification obliquity.…”

“…The function of the housing conditions and income as intensity determinants of disease transmission presents prominence in the study 14 in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, which demonstrated that there exists a relation between the precariousness of basic sanitation services and the emergence of dengue epidemics. However, a study 13 performed in Salvador (Bahia) demonstrated that even areas with more favorable socioeconomic conditions can present high risks of transmission.…”

Introduction:The dengue fever remains to be a disease of serious public health concern, and its incidence has increased in the past decades. This study aimed to characterize the epidemiological incidence of dengue in the period [2001][2002][2003][2004][2005][2006][2007][2008][2009][2010]. Methods: This is an epidemiological study of dengue in the municipality of Aracaju, state of Sergipe, in the period between 2001 and 2010, whose data were obtained from the Information System of Diseases Notifications. A descriptive analysis of the number of confirmed cases of dengue, according to year, semester, sanitary district, age, and sex, was performed. Results: There were 16,462 confirmed cases, especially in 2008, which obtained the highest incidence of the disease, with 10,485 confirmed cases. The first semester obtained the highest registration of cases during the years of research; this was predominated by females between 15 and 49 years old. With regard to the territorial distribution, the second district of the municipality obtained the highest number of cases. Conclusions: In 2008, in the City of Aracaju, SE, a significant increase in the proportion of dengue cases compared with other years was verified. However, a fast decline in the other years was observed, possibly because of the intensification of preventive actions to combat the mosquito that transmits the dengue virus.

“…6 Although access to and quality of the water supply services did not present correlation with dengue, another study found that the absence of these services or irregular water supply may imply extremely favorable situations to the vector's procreation, being determinant in the transmission. 18 Studies recognize the importance of housing and income indicators as determinants of dengue intensity, but not always do their conclusions coincide. This situation may be a refl ection of the assessment of the information of collected data.…”

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the dengue epidemic in relation to the socioeconomic context according to geographical areas. METHODS:An ecological study was conducted in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro (Southeastern Brazil), in areas delimited as neighborhoods, based on information about notifi ed dengue cases concerning residents in the municipality. The average incidence rate of dengue was calculated between the epidemiological weeks: 48 th of 2001 and 20 th of 2002. The occurrence of dengue was correlated with socioeconomic variables through Pearsons' correlation coeffi cient. Moran's global and local indexes were used to assess the spatial auto-correlation between dengue and the variables that signifi cantly correlated with the disease. The multiple linear regression model and the conditional auto-regression spatial model were used to analyze the relationship between dengue and socioeconomic context. RESULTS:The neighborhoods located in the west zone of the municipality presented high rates of average dengue incidence. The variables presenting signifi cant correlation were: percentage of households connected with the general sanitary network, households with washing machines, and population density per urban area. Moran's spatial auto-correlation index revealed spatial dependence between dengue and the selected variables. The utilized models indicated percentage of households connected with the general sanitary network as the sole variable signifi cantly associated with the disease. The residual fi gures in both models revealed signifi cant spatial auto-correlation, with a positive Moran Index (p<0.001) for linear regression model, and a negative one (p=0.005) for the conditional auto-regression one. CONCLUSIONS:Problems related to basic sanitation contribute decisively to increase the risk of the disease.

“…Esses estudos chegaram à conclusão de que o desenvolvimento de atividades rotineiras implica o aumento satisfatório do grau de conhecimento, mas o mesmo não acontece com relação à mudança de práticas preventivas para a eliminação total dos criadouros (Chiaravalloti Neto et al, 1998;Gratz, 1993;Leontisini et al, 1993;Rosenbaum et al, 1995;Swaddiwudhipong et al, 1992). Fatores como descrédito da população nos serviços de saúde, falta de interesse em participar das atividades preventivas, crença no caráter inevitável da doença, repasse verticalizado do conhecimento (Clark, 1995;Nathan, 1993) e a solicitação dos órgãos de saúde de execução de medidas restritas ao comportamento individual (Oliveira & Valla, 2001) interferem na adesão das pessoas aos programas de prevenção.…”
