This study aimed to show the results from malaria control in the State of Maranhão, based on the state's control plans and on the historical series of malaria records over the period from 1999 to 2007. The evolution of malaria cases was analyzed by comparing the annual incidences of parasitism (total number of cases notified per 1,000 inhabitants) according to geographical area, regional healthcare units and the 46 municipalities included in the plans. Analysis of the results allowed the conclusion that the plans were effective, since the annual incidence went down from 10.1 cases to 1.1 cases per 1,000 inhabitants, i.e. a regression of 89.1%, the largest among all the states in the Amazon region.
本研究旨在依据马拉尼昂州的疟疾控制计划以及1999年至2007年期间疟疾记录的历史序列,展示该州疟疾控制的成果。通过比较按地理区域、区域医疗单位以及计划涵盖的46个市划分的寄生虫感染年发病率(每千名居民中报告的病例总数),分析疟疾病例的演变情况。对结果的分析得出结论,这些计划是有效的,因为年发病率从每千名居民10.1例降至1.1例,即下降了89.1%,这在亚马逊地区所有州中降幅最大。
