To assess female homicide rates due to aggression according to sociodemographic and health indicators.
Ecological study on female homicides due to aggression in Brazil between 2003 and 2007. Information on 19,459 deaths were obtained form the Brazilian Mortality Database. Standardized female homicide rates due to aggression were correlated with 28 socioeconomic, demographic and health indicators, using Pearson's correlation test. Multiple linear regression was performed including variables with p < 0.20 and excluding those with multicollinearity.
The standardized female homicide rate due to aggression was 4.1/100,000 during the study period. After adjustment, three variables remained significantly associated with female homicides: birth rate (p = 0.072), percentage of Evangelicals (p = 0.019) and male homicides due to aggression (p < 0.001). The model had a predictive power of 69% (r² = 0.699). The Brazilian states of Espírito Santo, Pernambuco, Mato Grosso, Rio de Janeiro, Rondônia, Alagoas, Mato Grosso do Sul, Roraima e Amapá showed the highest rates during the study period.
The female homicide rates due to aggression were high in Brazil and varied by region. The association with male homicides due to aggression stresses the importance of reducing structural violence to protect women against violence.
根据社会人口学和健康指标评估因侵犯行为导致的女性凶杀率。
对 2003 年至 2007 年巴西因侵犯行为导致的女性凶杀事件进行了生态研究。从巴西死亡率数据库获得了 19459 例死亡的信息。使用 Pearson 相关检验将标准化的因侵犯行为导致的女性凶杀率与 28 项社会经济、人口和健康指标相关联。进行多元线性回归，纳入 p<0.20 的变量，排除有多重共线性的变量。
在研究期间，因侵犯行为导致的标准化女性凶杀率为 4.1/100000。经过调整，有三个变量与女性凶杀事件仍显著相关：出生率（p=0.072）、福音派百分比（p=0.019）和因侵犯行为导致的男性凶杀（p<0.001）。该模型的预测能力为 69%（r²=0.699）。在研究期间，巴西的圣埃斯皮里图州、伯南布哥州、马托格罗索州、里约热内卢州、朗多尼亚州、阿拉戈斯州、南马托格罗索州、罗赖马州和阿马帕州的凶杀率最高。
巴西因侵犯行为导致的女性凶杀率较高，且因地区而异。与因侵犯行为导致的男性凶杀相关联，强调了减少结构性暴力以保护妇女免受暴力侵害的重要性。
