RESUMO: Introdução: A violência sexual tem despontado no cenário da saúde com as mudanças nos perfis epidemiológicos das populações. Metodologia: Estudo ecológico com 5.565 municípios brasileiros entre 2010 e 2014. Realizou-se análise descritiva das variáveis (taxa populacional de notificação de violência sexual, renda domiciliar per capita e índice de desenvolvimento humano - IDH) e suas estratificações por quintil. Para explorar os fatores associados às mudanças nas desigualdades sociais na taxa de notificação de violência sexual, foram adotados o coeficiente angular de desigualdade e o índice relativo de desigualdade. Construiu-se equiplot para o desfecho em cada variável independente. Resultados: A taxa média de notificações de violência sexual no Brasil foi de 4,38 notificações/100 mil habitantes para o período. Houve incremento na taxa de violência e melhoria nas condições socioeconômicas. Observou-se maior taxa de notificações no quintil com melhores condições de vida, bem como aumento na desigualdade da taxa de notificações de violência sexual em função da renda domiciliar e do IDH. Diversos fatores parecem influenciar o aumento das notificações de violência sexual no país. Entre eles, destacam-se a melhoria nas condições de vida da população e a maior sensibilidade moral à violência, contudo ainda há disparidade de notificações entre os municípios de acordo com sua condição socioeconômica. Conclusão: A falta de políticas públicas de equidade social em saúde tem interferido nas notificações de violência sexual no país e ampliado as iniquidades em saúde.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Sexual violence has emerged in the health field with changes in the epidemiological profiles of populations. Methodology: An ecological study with 5,565 Brazilian municipalities between 2010 and 2014. A descriptive analysis of the variables (Population rate of sexual violence reporting, household income per capita and HDI) and their stratification by quintile was performed. In order to explore the factors associated with changes in social inequalities regarding the rate of reporting of sexual violence, the Slope Index of Inequality and Relative Index of Inequality were adopted. An Equiplot was constructed for the outcome on each independent variable. Results: The mean rate of reports of sexual violence in Brazil was 4.38 reports/100,000 inhabitants for the period. There was an increase in the rate of sexual violence and improvement in socioeconomic conditions. There was a higher rate of reporting in the quintile with better living conditions. An increase in the inequality of the rate of sexual violence as a function of household income and the HDI was observed. Several factors seem to influence the increase of reports of sexual violence in the country, among them the improvement in the living conditions of the population and greater moral sensitivity to violence. However, there is still a disparity in reporting among municipalities according to their socioeconomic status. Conclusion: The lack of public policies on social equity in health has interfered with reports of sexual violence in the country and has widened health inequities.

Abstract: The distribution of harms to health varies spatially determined by the socioeconomic conditions of the environment. This research aimed to assess the spatial distribution of dental caries in 12-year-old children and their correlation with socioeconomic indicators in Brazilian states. The sample of this ecological study comprised all the 26 Brazilian states and the Federal District. Thematic and correlation maps were constructed in order to assess the spatial dependency, as well as the correlation between dental caries and socioeconomic factors. The results showed that the states with the worst DMFT indexes were located in the north and northeast, showing spatial autocorrelation. These regions also had the worst results for the following variables: poverty, illiteracy, education, and income. The bivariate analysis showed that household income and education level had negative spatial correlation with the DMFT index, while illiteracy and poverty rates showed positive correlation. Despite advances in the decline of DMFT index in recent years, there is still an inequity in the distribution of the caries disease.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To analyze how individual characteristics and the social context, together, are associated with self-perception of the oral health. METHODS A multilevel cross-sectional study with data from the Brazilian National Health Survey 2013, the United Nations Development Program, and the National Registry of Health Establishments. The explanatory variables for the “oral health perception” outcome were grouped, according to the study framework, into biological characteristics (sex, color, age), proximal social determinants (literacy, household crowding, and socioeconomic stratification), and distal (years of schooling expectancy at age 18, GINI, Human Development Index, and per capita income). The described analysis was performed, along with bivariate Poisson analysis and multilevel Poisson analysis for the construction of the explanatory model of oral health perception. All analyzes considered the sample weights. RESULTS Both the biological characteristics and the proximal and distal social determinants were associated with the perception of oral health in the bivariate analysis. A higher prevalence of bad oral health was associated to lower years of schooling expectancy (PR = 1.31), lower per capita income (PR = 1.45), higher income concentration (PR = 1.41), and worse human development (PR = 1.45). Inversely, oral health services in both primary and secondary care were negatively associated with oral health perception. All the biological and individual social characteristics, except reading and writing, made up the final explanatory model along with the distal social determinants of the Human Development Index and coverage of basic care in the multilevel analysis. CONCLUSIONS Biological factors, individual and contextual social determinants were associate synergistically with the population’s perception of oral health. It is necessary to improve individual living conditions and the implementation of public social policies to improve the oral health of the population.

ResumoApesar da melhoria das condições de vida dos brasileiros, ainda persiste um panorama de iniquidades em saúde bucal. Este estudo ecológico avaliou a relação das condições socioeconômicas e de política de saúde pública com as de saúde bucal nas capitais brasileiras. Foi realizada análise fatorial com os indicadores de condições socioeconômicas, revelando dois fatores comuns: deprivação econômica e condição sociossanitária. Em seguida, executou-se análise de regressão linear múltipla para os indicadores de saúde bucal (média CPO-D 12 anos, média de dentes perdidos e taxa de população livre de cárie) com os dois fatores em comum e a fluoretação da água de abastecimento. A análise de regressão linear múltipla para o CPO-D das capitais foi estimado pelas condições sociossanitárias e fluoretação, ajustado pela deprivação econômica; enquanto que o modelo para a média de dentes perdidos foi estimado apenas pela fluoretação e deprivação econômica, e, por fim, o modelo para a taxa da população livre de cárie nas capitais brasileiras foi estimado pela condição econômica e sociossanitária ajustadas pelo abastecimento de água fluoretada. Portanto, os resultados apontam a necessidade de ações sociais que impactem nas condições de vida da população para redução da cárie dentária.

AbstractDespite the improvement of the lives of Brazilians, still persists a panorama of iniquities in health in Brazil. This ecological study evaluated the relationship of socioeconomic conditions and public health policy with oral health conditions in Brazilian capitals. Factor analysis was performed with the socioeconomic indicators, revealing two common factors: economic deprivation and socio-sanitary condition. Then, was executed multiple linear regression analysis for the oral health indicators (average DMFT 12 years, mean missing teeth and rate of decay of free population) with two factors in common and fluoridation of water supply. Multiple linear regression analysis to the DMFT of the capitals was estimated by the socio-sanitary conditions and fluoridation, adjusted by economic deprivation; whereas the model for the average missing teeth was estimated only for flu-oridation and economic deprivation, and finally, the model for the rate of caries-free population in the Brazilian capitals was estimated by economic and sociosanitary condition set by fluoridated water supplies. Therefore, the results indicate the need for social actions that impact on people's living conditions to reduce tooth decay.
