The group residing in inland municipalities and those traveling a distance of >70 km had a higher average relative risk of death (RR=1.21, 95%CI 1.05-1.4 and RR=1.18, 95%CI 1.01-1.39, respectively). Living in or near the capital decreases the average relative risk of death. In order to increase the survival time of HIV/Aids patients in Alagoas, it is suggested to decentralize specialized health care, that is, to create regional centers to care for these people.

In order to increase the survival time of HIV/Aids patients in Alagoas, it is suggested to decentralize specialized health care, that is, to create regional centers to care for these people. To analyze the characteristics and trends of HIV/AIDS epidemic in Uruguaiana, Rio Grande do Sul, between 2005 and 2015 through indicators related to infection and the cascade of care of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Descriptive study performed with data from the Health Information Systems of the Ministry of Health. Historical sets of indicators related to detection of HIV/AIDS cases and deaths were developed, comparing with national and state data from 2005 to 2015. Also, the cascades of care for PLWHA were elaborated for the municipality between 2013 and 2015. AIDS detection rates of Uruguaiana were higher in comparison to the country and state, the same happened with the mortality and lethality indicators, which varied between 35.1 and 17.7 deaths/100,000 inhabitants and 6.5 and 2.7 deaths/100 inhabitants, respectively. The cascades of care for PLWHA showed an increase in individuals diagnosed with HIV in the period (from 1,125 to 1,527). The main gap occurred between the "diagnosed" and "connected" categories, expanding over time (78, 48 and 43.4%, respectively). There was a low proportion of individuals in the "undetectable viral load" category in the three years, ranging from 32 to 22.9%. Indicators of detection, mortality, and lethality due to HIV/AIDS are high in Uruguaiana, with an increase in the number of people diagnosed with HIV and decrease in their link with health services, suggesting the need for advances in strategies to attract and link PLWHA to the health care network.

The main objective of this paper was to analyze the relation between GDP and three variables linked to traffic accidents in Brazilian municipalities traffic accident mortality, deaths per vehicle; and vehicles per inhabitant. 2005, 2010 and 2015 traffic accident (TA) mortality rates were estimated using a three-year moving average and were standardized; then, we applied the empirical Bayes estimator (EBE). Fatality rates (deaths per vehicle) were also based on EBE. Thapsigargin mw The variable vehicles per inhabitant considered the ratio between the fleet and the population at municipal level. For every studied year, we estimated linear regression models between GDP and the interest variables. The variables distribution indicates that, between 2005 and 2015, GDP and vehicles per inhabitant kept the same rising relationship. Fatality rates show a decreasing association with GDP. The distribution of mortality by TA had an inverted U-shaped pattern. The model coefficients practically did not change for the vehicle per inhabitant. Estimated association between deaths per vehicle and GDP kept the same sign, but diminished between 2005 and 2015. Model coefficient sign changed in 2015 for TA mortality. Similar to what was observed in developed countries, the relation between mortality by traffic accidents and GDP change
