  • Effects of hydro-meteorological and geological disasters on vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks and routine immunisation amongst children

    Open AccessIsabel T Barnidge, Andrêa J F Ferreira et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Hydro-meteorological and geological disasters can pose serious harm to community health, such as an increased risk of infectious diseases and related mortality. We conducted a scoping review to compile the available literature on the effects of hydro-meteorological and geological disasters on routine immunisation and vaccine-preventable disease (VPD) outbreaks among children and adolescents under 18 years. We searched Medline, Embase, Global Heal…

    Open AccessIla Rocha Falcão, João Guilherme G Tedde et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    INTRODUCTION: Program (BFP)) with child nutrition nationwide in Brazil. METHODS: We used the Centre for Data and Knowledge Integration for Health Birth Cohort (baseline data from the National Registry for Social Programmes (CadÚnico) linked with live births and nutrition registries) to conduct a longitudinal population-based study between 2008 and 2015.

  • Short-term ambient heat exposure and low Apgar score in newborns

    Open AccessMichelle Del Carretto, Audrey Godin et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Exposure to high ambient temperatures near the time of delivery has been associated with adverse birth outcomes, but studies examining the impact on immediate newborn health remain limited. We used a time-stratified case-crossover design combined with a distributed lag nonlinear model to evaluate the short-term effects of ambient heat (0–1 day lag) on low 5-minute APGAR score (≤7; sub-categories: 6–7, 3–5, 0–2). Cases of low APGAR score among low…

  • Avaliação da qualidade do Sistema Brasileiro de Informações sobre Mortalidade (SIM)

    Open AccessPoliana Rebouças, Flávia Jôse Oliveira Alves et al.ARTICLECiência & Saúde Coletiva2025

    O objetivo foi mapear evidências sobre a qualidade dos registros do Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade (SIM) por meio de revisão de escopo nacional com artigos publicados até abril de 2023 em cinco bases (PubMed, Embase, scopus, LILACS e SciELO). Excluíram-se estudos focados em causas específicas de óbito. Foram avaliadas dimensões como acessibilidade, clareza metodologica, cobertura, completitude, confiabilidade, consistencia, nao-duplicida…

  • Interpregnancy Weight Change and Adverse Birth Outcomes

    Open AccessAlisson Daniel Silva Rocha, Thais RB Carrilho et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2025

    The effects of interpregnancy weight change (IPWC) on the risk of adverse birth outcomes in subsequent pregnancies are still not fully understood. Existing studies present conflicting results regarding the association between IPWC and preterm birth, while evidence of its relationship with low birth weight (LBW) or macrosomia is limited, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. This population-based longitudinal study used Brazil's routin…

  • Associations of municipality-level income and racial segregation with individual-level tuberculosis treatment outcomes in Brazil

    Open AccessQanisha Hall, José Firmino De Sousa Filho et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2025Cited by: 1References: 32

    Background Residential segregation is considered a social determinant of health, but there is limited evidence of its impact on tuberculosis (TB). We investigated the associations between municipality-level income and racial segregation and TB treatment outcomes in Brazil. Methods We studied nationwide registries of new TB cases between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2019. TB treatment was dichotomised as unfavourable (ie, loss to follow-up, modi…

    Open AccessNaiá Ortelan, Marcia Furquim De Almeida et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    An income transfer programme for pregnant women of low-socioeconomic status, conditional to attending prenatal care appointments, has been associated with a reduction in extremely preterm births. These programmes could be essential in achieving Sustainable Development Goals

  • Municipality-level measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine coverage and deprivation in Brazil

    Open AccessAudrey Godin, Júlia Moreira Pescarini et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    To better understand the declining rates of routine childhood vaccination in Brazil, we investigated the association between measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) first dose vaccine coverage and deprivation at the municipality level. Using routinely collected data from 5565 Brazilian municipalities from 2006 to 2020, we investigated the association between municipality-level MMR vaccine first dose coverage (i.e., as a continuous variable and as a per…

  • Tendência temporal da prevalência e mortalidade infantil das anomalias congênitas no Brasil, de 2001 a 2018

    Open AccessQeren Hapuk R Ferreira Fernandes, Enny S Paixão et al.ARTICLECiência & Saúde Coletiva2023

    As anomalias congênitas (AC) configuram um relevante problema para a saúde pública global, afetando em média de 3% a 6% dos recém-nascidos em todo o mundo. No Brasil, ocupam a segunda posição entre os principais grupos de causas de óbito infantil. Assim, estudos amplos são necessários para mostrar o impacto das AC na saúde infantil. O presente estudo descreve a tendência temporal da prevalência e da mortalidade infantil por AC entre nascidos vivo…

  • Temporal trends in prevalence and infant mortality of birth defects in Brazil, from 2001 to 2018

    Open AccessQeren Hapuk R Ferreira Fernandes, Enny S Paixão et al.ARTICLECiência & Saúde Coletiva2023

    Congenital anomalies (CA) are a relevant problem for global public health, affecting about 3% to 6% of newborns worldwide. In Brazil, these are the second main cause of infant mortality. Thus, extensive studies are needed to demonstrate the impact of these anomalies on births and deaths. The present study describes the temporal trends of prevalence and infant mortality due to CA among live births in Brazil and regions, from 2001 to 2018, using th…

METHODS: Overall, care, and socioeconomic completeness scores were compiled based on selected variables, by using ad hoc weights assigned by expert…

  • Vaccine coverage and effectiveness against laboratory-confirmed symptomatic and severe Covid-19 in indigenous people in Brazil

    Open AccessJúlia Moreira Pescarini, Ana Margarida Cardoso et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    Lower coverage but similar Covid-19 VE among indigenous people than overall Brazilians suggest the need to expand access, timely vaccination, and urgently offer booster doses to achieve a great level of protection among this group

  • Socioeconomic risk markers of congenital Zika syndrome

    Open AccessEnny S Paixão, Qeren Hapuk R Ferreira Fernandes et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    While it is well known that socioeconomic markers are associated with a higher risk of arbovirus infections, research on the relationship between socioeconomic factors and congenital Zika syndrome (CZS) remains limited. This study investigates the relationship between socioeconomic risk markers and live births with CZS in Brazil. We conducted a population-based study using data from all registered live births in Brazil (Live Births Information Sy…

Design: Time trends study based…

  • Métodos para avaliação da efetividade de vacinas para Covid-19 com ênfase em abordagens quase-experimentais

    Open AccessJúlia Moreira Pescarini, Camila Silveira Silva Teixeira et al.ARTICLECiência & Saúde Coletiva2021

    A avalição da efetividade de vacinas é feita com dados do mundo real e é essencial para monitorar o desempenho dos programas de vacinação ao longo do tempo bem como frente a novas variantes. Até o momento, a avaliação da efetividade das vacinas para COVID-19 tem sido baseada em métodos clássicos como estudos de coorte e caso controle teste-negativo, que muitas vezes podem não permitir o adequado controle dos vieses intrínsecos da alocação das cam…
