“…Those hospitalized under private health plans are excluded and, since coverage by the SUS is around 85% of the population, it is possible that the sample does not reflect the real number of hospitalizations due to hypertension; thirdly, the primary aim of DATASUS is to gather information for accounting purposes. However, this source is commonly used by studies on the human health effects of exposure to air pollutants 9,10, 18,19 .…”

“…Published in 2007, the first studies on the health effects of air pollution in biomass burning areas in the Brazilian Amazon were limited to descriptive studies and focused mainly on asthma 59,61,65,66,72 . Time-series studies conducted in the subequatorial Amazon showed that daily levels of PM 2.5 measured during the peak of the dry season led to an increase in the percentage of hospital admissions and outpatient visits due to respiratory diseases in children and the elderly 107,109 . These results corroborate with those observed in the Southeast Region of Brazil in areas where sugarcane burning occurs 52 .…”

“…There seems to be enough evidence that in situations of increased concentrations of PM 2.5 , as observed in the Amazon region due to biomass burning, there is an increase in hospitalization of children and the elderly with respiratory diseases (IGNOTTI et al, 2007(IGNOTTI et al, , 2010a(IGNOTTI et al, 2010bMASCARENHAS et al, 2008;SILVA et al, 2010). …”
