          Abstract

          A epidemiologia tem focado a violência como um dos problemas da Saúde Pública. Dentre as categorias da violência encontra-se o suicídio. Este estudo descreve associações entre suicídio e aspectos sociodemográficos. Usa metodologia ecológico-transversal por meio de técnicas de correlação e regressão linear múltipla (backward). A mortalidade proporcional em relação ao total de óbitos foi o melhor desfecho para modelagem (R² = 0,41). As variáveis resultantes: porcentual da população residente com religião de origem pentecostal, porcentual de pessoas com 10 anos ou mais de idade com estado civil solteiro, média de anos de estudos, altitude para municípios da divisão político-administrativa vigente 2.000m, percentual de moradores em domicílios particulares permanentes com ausência de banheiro, percentual de pessoas com 10 anos ou mais de idade ocupadas no setor "educação" e porcentual de pessoas com 10 anos ou mais de idade com rendimento nominal de até um salário mínimo, todas estatisticamente significantes no nível de 0,05. O resultado encontrado vem reforçar a ideia da influência de fatores causais extrínsecos na determinação desse desfecho.

          Epidemiology has identified violence as a major worldwide public health concern. Suicide is classified as violence. This study analyzes the association between suicide and socio-demographic factors. The methodological design was ecological, using correlation techniques and backward multiple linear regression. Normality of the residuals in the final model was analyzed. Proportional mortality in relation to total deaths was identified as the best outcome for modeling (R² = 0.41). The resulting variables were: % Pentecostal religion, % single marital status in the population over 10 years of age, mean years of schooling, altitude of the municipality, % homes without latrines, % population over 10 years of age working in the educational sector, and % population over 10 years with per capita earnings up to one minimum wage. All these variables were statistically significant at 5%. The results support the idea of the influence of extrinsic causal factors in determination of suicide.

          Potential years of life lost between ages 1 and 70: an indicator of premature mortality for health planning.

          The indicator of Potential Years of Life Lost between ages 1 and 70 (PYLL) is proposed with the primary objective of ranking major causes of premature mortality. This proposal is based on a review of existing mortality indicators and indices and of the history of the concept of potential years of life lost. The method of calculation along with the corresponding rate and the age-adjusted rate are discussed and presented with applications to Canadian data and interpretation. Several methodological aspects are discussed, particularly the comparison with more sophisticated approaches based on life tables which do not appear to alter the ranking of major causes of premature death. This indicator fits well into the category of Social Indicators and can help health planners define priorities for the prevention of premature deaths. Epidemiological studies could also make use of this indicator of premature mortality. The simplicity of calculation and ease of comprehension should facilitate its use.
