“…Moreover, the MIS is an important data source that can contribute to the epidemiological profile of a population. The evaluation of the level of health can be made by indicators that use, for the most part, the mortality data of a population to indirectly assess the health of a community 34 .…”

Objective: To analyze trends in general mortality and circulatory system disease mortality among elderly persons living in the city of Rio Branco, Acre, Brazil, from 1980 to 2012. Method: A study of the cause of death of elderly people was carried out from the data available in the Brazilian Mortality Information System. Crude and age-based overall and circulatory system mortality rates were calculated. The trend analyses of these rates were performed using the JoinPoint Regression program. Results: Despite the reductions in mortality rates, diseases of the circulatory system remained the main cause of death of the elderly in Rio Branco. The decrease in overall mortality rates was higher among elderly women and those aged 70 years or older. There was a tendency for death rates due to diseases of the circulatory system to decline among elderly men and grow among elderly women. Conclusion: The mortality rate among the elderly in Rio Branco revealed a declining trend. Deaths from diseases of the circulatory system were the leading cause of death, suggesting that research should be carried out to assess the need for investment to ensure that increased longevity is accompanied by good quality of life.

“…On the other hand, SIM has the main goal of supporting the collection, storage and management process of death records in Brazil, and was used to label records where death happened until 28 days of life on SINASC, using DNV, which is a common field in both systems, as an association key. This way, each sample in our final dataset comprises SINASC features and a label (0 or 1) describing if the subject survived, or not, after 28 days of life [ 15 , 18 , 24 , 32 ].…”

Infant mortality is an important health measure in a population as a crude indicator of the poverty and socioeconomic level. It also shows the availability and quality of health services and medical technology in a specific region. Although improvements have been observed in the last decades, the implementation of actions to reduce infant mortality is still a concern in many countries. To address such an important problem, this paper proposes a new support decision approach to classify newborns according to their neonatal mortality risk. Using features related to mother, newborn, and socio-demographic, we model the problem using a data-driven classification model able to provide the probability of a newborn dying until days of life. More than a theoretical study, decision support tools as the one proposed here is relevant in countries in development as Brazil, because it aims at identifying risky neonates that may die to raise the attention of medical practitioners so that they can work harder to reduce the overall neonatal mortality. Overcoming an AUC of 96%, the proposed method is able to provide not just the probability of death risk but also an explicable interpretation of most important features for model decision, which is paramount in public health applications. Furthermore, we provide an extensive analysis across different rounds of experiments, including an analysis of pre and post partum features influence over data-driven model. Finally, different from previously conducted studies which rely on databases with less than 100,000 samples, our model takes advantage from a new proposed database, constructed using more than 1,400,000 samples comprising births and deaths extracted from public records in São Paulo-Brazil from 2012 to 2018.

“…Since 1975, the Brazilian Ministry of Health has monitored nationwide mortality through surveillance via SIM system [10]. In Brazil, data from external cause of death are reported in all states through Health Secretaries to the Ministry of Health; which information is stored and later disclosed via web system called DATASUS (IT Department).…”

Background Homicide rates in the state of Alagoas (Brazil) have been high for a long time over the last decade. In this study, we quantified the violence rates and mapping the cities in higher risk for homicide. Method: A surveillance of homicide rates over ten years in the state of Alagoas, located in North-Eastern of Brazil was carried out through spatial-temporal analysis. First, the male/female ratio was calculated later the top violent cities and the relative risk for males and females were mapped. Results A total of 19,560 homicides were investigated in two large regions of the state called Metro Region and Inner Cities. A pattern of violence by homicide involving mostly men throughout all state was observed and highest rates for the metropolitan region of the state capital. Homicide has been spreading from the capital to other inner cities, and distinct pattern was observed when mapping the risk according to sex. Conclusions Homicide has remained as a serious local problem in the state over ten years, and our results suggest that inner areas in the state have experienced an increase of homicide rates, requiring strong investment in combat and prevention.
