“…Gender violence is an ancient phenomenon, produced from social, cultural, political and historical constructions, which can be inserted into the daily life of women from childhood, adulthood and old age 13 . In Brazil, despite advances in public policies and punitive laws, exorbitant levels of such violence remain 13,14 .…”

Objective: To profile aggressors of older adults who receive care at a reference center in geriatrics and gerontology in the Distrito Federal (Federal District), Brazil, from 2008 to 2018. Method: A retrospective, documentary, descriptive study with a quantitative approach was performed, based on information obtained from the minutes book of the unit, which contained a record of mediation meetings of cases of conflict and violence against older adults, carried out by social workers, nurses and other members of the multidisciplinary team. The data collection instrument covered the sociodemographic characteristics of the aggressor, the sociodemographic and health profile of the older adults and the type of violence suffered. Result: 111 cases were analyzed. The children of the older adults were the main aggressors (72%), with a prevalence of men (62%) and the from 51 to 60 year age group (37%). The older adults who suffered violence were predominantly women (72%), almost half of whom were aged 81 to 90 years, followed by those aged 71 to 80 years (39%). A total of 16% of the older adults lived with their children or close family members. The main types of violence evidenced were negligence (56%) and psychological violence (29%), with physical violence representing 8% of cases. Conclusion: The study of the profile of the aggressor and the older adult who suffered violence reinforced the need to focus actions within family arrangements. Investigations that address those who practice violence can contribute to the promotion of public health policies and contribute to geriatric and gerontological clinical practices that combat violence against older adults.

“…In this context, it is worth mentioning the increase in the proportion of deaths occurring on public roads in all Brazilian regions (11) , it is believed that many partners or former partners, because they know the routine of the victims, can perpetrate the aggression in the exit of home, work or school, and thus many women may be terminating abusive relationships, using the prerogatives of the Maria da Penha Act. However, they have not received the necessary protection from the State to prevent deaths (8,(10)(11)(17)(18) .…”

“…Although there is a legal apparatus to repress this type of violence, there is a gap between legislation and practice, from the invisibility that crosses violence against women to the difficulty of articulating a resolute care network to combat this violence (1,8) . In this direction, a study comparing homicide mortality in women with and without prior notification of violence showed that 15.0% of women who died due to feminicide in Brazil in the period from 2011 to 2015 had reported domestic violence, indicating limitations and weaknesses of the care and attention network for women (9)(10) .…”

Objective: to analyze the temporal trend of the homicide rate of women in the states of Northeastern Brazil. Methods: ecological study of temporal trend. Data were the 25,332 feminicide deaths recorded in the Mortality Information System. A temporal trend analysis was performed using negative binomial regression. Results: after the correction steps, there was an increase of approximately 17.0% in deaths, corresponding to the standardized average rate of 4.7/100,000 women. There were higher mortality rates in women in the second and third decades of life. Higher average rates per 100,000 women were observed in the states of Pernambuco (8.25) and Alagoas (6.32). An increase in mortality rates in all the states of the analyzed region, in the period verified was evidenced, with the exception of Sergipe. Conclusion: a high magnitude of feminicide rates and ascendant trends were observed in most states in the Northeast Region of Brazil.

“…In general, they perform specific and normative actions for cases whose complexity requires the re-signification of habits and culture and, therefore, require continuous changes in the search for a new social order, that of gender equality. Thus, professionals working in the UBS/ESF and CRAS must break with the one-off medical care focused on PHC, assistance in basic social protection 39,40 .…”

“…Notifying violence without articulated and integrated actions does not diminish women's vulnerability. A study with data from SINAN and SIM for Brazil from 2011 to 2015 shows that the risk of women notified due to violence dying from abuse is higher than that of the female population in general 40 .…”

The study analyzes the differences among cases of violence against women registered in police reports (PR) at the Women's Protection Police Station (WPPS) during regular working hours, and those registered during after-hours, in a medium-sized city in the inland state of São Paulo, Brazil. This is a cross-sectional study based on data from PRs registered for one year (2013/2014). PRs were differentiated by period of registration, at regular working hours and after-hours (dependent variable). A chi-square test was used to compare groups. In total, 440 PRs were registered, 373 during regular working hours, and 67 during after-hours. Cases of violence registered during after-hours evidenced more significant threats to women's integrity, as shown by the higher number of cases of perpetrators' flagrante delicto, requests for protective measures and greater severity of assaults, such as bruises, need for hospitalization and referral to forensic medicine (IML), which characterize the greater severity of occurrences when WPPS are closed. Thus, women lack a specialized reception service and a full guarantee of rights in periods of highest risk and vulnerability.
