Abstract:Apresentam-se os resultados da mortalidade e morbidade cansadas por doenças infecciosas e parasitárias (Grupo I da Classificação Internacional de Doenças). Os dados de mortalidade basearam-se em informações da Secretaria de Saúde do Estado de São Paulo; os de morbidade, em estatísticas de egressos hospitalares produzidos pelo Centro de Processamento de Dados Hospitalares, do Departamento de Medicina Social da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto e nos resultados de um levantamento de morbidade por entrevist… Show more

In this article, we comment on the main features of infectious diseases in Brazil in the last 50 years, highlighting how much of this path Revista de Saúde Pública could portray. From 1967 to 2016, 1,335 articles focusing on infectious diseases were published in Revista de Saúde Pública. Although the proportion of articles on the topic have decreased from about 50.0% to 15.0%, its notability remained and reflected the growing complexity of the research required for its control. It is noteworthy that studies design and analysis strategies progressively became more sophisticated, following the great development of epidemiology in Brazil in the recent decades. Thus, the journal has followed the success of public health interventions that permitted to control or eliminate numerous infectious diseases – which were responsible, in the past, for high rates of morbidity and mortality –, and also followed the reemergence of diseases already controlled and the emergence of until then unknown diseases, with a strong impact on the Brazilian population, establishing a little predictable and very challenging path.

A autora se propõe a mostrar a atuação da Enfermeira na Comunidade de Pedregal - Goiás, junto a 50 (cinqüenta) famílias que apresentavam uma alta incidência de parasitoses intestinais, através de um programa de orientação, em grupo, sobre o controle e prevenção dessa patologia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
