Abstract: Objetivo. Descrever as características epidemiológicas da malária e seus principais determinantes no Município de Cruzeiro do Sul, no Estado do Acre, Brasil, entre 1998 Conclusões. O incentivo a atividades econômicas em áreas periurbanas de transmissão instável de malária, típicas da América Latina, deve ser muito bem planejado. O controle da malária em Cruzeiro do Sul baseou-se em estratégias integradas implementadas simultaneamente pelos governos federal, estadual e municipal, como preconizado pelo Plano N… Show more

“…Moreover, in some regions, migration from rural to urban and suburban areas that were receptive to the vector and the disease may have contributed to establishing malaria transmission in these locations and changed the population affected. This may account for the differences in malaria case characteristics through time documented in this study, especially the greater contribution of women and people with more years of education and the proportional increase in intra-household transmission of malaria, which is more frequent in urban and suburban areas (Costa et al 2010). …”

“…Neither of these trends, however, was statistically significant, despite their magnitudes. Epidemics occurring in Acre, particularly in the municipality of Cruzeiro do Sul between 2004-2006, have already been documented in the literature (Costa et al 2010, Braz et al 2012). The results of another study conducted in Acre suggest that fish farming contributes to the high levels of malaria transmission in the region, because an abundance of anopheline mosquitoes were observed within 100 metres of fishponds and the rate of malaria notifications in this location increased over time (Reis et al 2015a).…”

“…Migration of workers and families into the area combined with increasing mosquito density led to an upsurge on malaria incidence, mainly caused by P. vivax 19,21. Discontinued incentives to building fish farms in some areas had the adverse effect, as many of these ended up abandoned leading to perennial mosquito breeding sites altering the seasonality of malaria as demonstrated in the municipality of Cruzeiro do Sul 22. Sophisticated geostatistical methods have also shown an association between fish farming pond locations and endemic and epidemic malaria transmission 23.…”

“…Thus, the SIVEP-Malaria database allows the spatial and temporal monitoring of epidemics but also serves to assess the coverage of diagnosis and treatment (Oliveira-Ferreira et al 2010). However, research find that the SIVEP information is not utilised well by local managers (Costa et al 2010;Hermes et al 2013;Peiter et al 2013). There are a variety of errors spread over the data, mainly due to mistyping or lack of precision on declarations of patients.…”
