Results: Less than 2% of adults reported a medical diagnosis of cancer, with most reported by women, people over 60, among whites, residents in the village and residents of South Prostate cancer was the most reported among men and breast among women. The lowest average age of first diagnosis was identified for cervical cancer (35.4 years;) and the highest for prostate (65.7 years; 95%CI 64.2 -67.0). Conclusion: The findings of this study are important for the planning of health services and access, as they show differences mainly regional.

ABSTRACT:Objective: To describe people with diabetes in Brazil and to compare their sociodemographic characteristics, access and self-reported adherence to diabetes prescribed drugs. Methods: Data analysis from the National Survey on Access, Use and Promotion of the Rational Use of Medicines, a household survey, with sampling by clusters, according to sex and age domains and national and macro-regional representativeness. Adults (≥ 20 years old) who reported having diabetes constituted the sample. The weighted frequencies of the variables in the sample were analyzed and the Pearson χ 2 test was applied to evaluate the statistical significance of the differences between the strata for the data of access, form of financing and adherence to the drugs, considering the level of significance of 5%. Results: We found a higher proportion of women, people over 60 years and economy class C. Most participants reported having two or more comorbidities, in addition to diabetes, and taking five or more drugs. Regarding access, 97.8% say they have access to prescription drugs for diabetes and 70.7% say they get them totally free of charge. There was low adherence to anti-diabetic treatment, with significant macro-regional differences (p = 0,001), and greater vulnerability in the South and Northeast regions. Conclusion: Better access to diabetes medicines in the country has been demonstrated. However, to improve the efficiency of health public spending, it is necessary to achieve higher rates of adherence to treatment.

“…These interactions are crisscrossed by different income status, different access to and consumption of various types of goods and services (Silveira et al, 2002). In this sense, the groups from the lowest social levels have the most difficulty in consumption of various items, resulting in fairly heterogeneous living conditions (Almeida et al, 2002;Barreto, 2006).…”

ResumoO texto aborda aspectos do envelhecimento e seus novos paradigmas. É bem conhecida a relação entre envelhecimento e o aumento da prevalência de doenças e, consequentemente, do consumo de fármacos, perda progressiva de funcionalidade e maior utilização dos serviços de saúde. No entanto, observam-se, a partir da segunda metade do século XX, rápidas transformações no modo de se ver e se viver a velhice. Nos últimos anos, o aumento de pessoas mais velhas ocorre de modo simultâneo à ampliação da classe média brasileira, com marcado impacto na possibilidade de acesso e consumo de determinados bens e serviços, produzindo-se novas necessidades sociais. O tempo da velhice e os papéis sociais a ele atribuídos sempre variaram segundo o horizonte histórico das diferentes sociedades. Mais recentemente o envelhecimento vem sendo associado à imagem positiva de se viver mais e melhor. Entretanto, os avanços não se concretizam para todos os cidadãos. As sociedades capitalistas atravessadas pela desigualdade distributiva suscitam desafios ligados às camadas mais pobres e desassistidas, assim como ao lugar a ser ocupado pelos novos e novíssimos velhos.
