We reviewed the scientific production on maternal health and the health of children under ten years of age, published in Journal Ciência & Saúde Coletiva during the last 25 years, focusing on quantitative studies. The authors' characteristics, populations under study, thematic areas, and methodology are described. A total of 170 publications were identified and grouped into 12 major themes. Pregnancy, delivery, and puerperium were the subject of 47 studies, followed by child anthropometric assessments (29), breastfeeding (24), and mortality (13). The selected publications represented 3.5% of the total original papers published by the Journal since its creation in 1996 and about 5% of the publications in the 2015-2020 period. The primary data sources were health service records, information systems, and population surveys. The cross-sectional design was used in 113 of the 170 articles, and 70% covered only one municipality. The Southeast and Northeast Regions of Brazil were the target of most studies, and the North Region was the least represented. The publications reflect the complexity of maternal and child health themes, with a particular focus on the importance of the Unified Health System and showing how open access data can contribute to public health research.
我们回顾了过去 25 年在《Ciência & Saúde Coletiva》杂志上发表的关于孕产妇健康和 10 岁以下儿童健康的科学文献，重点关注定量研究。描述了作者特征、研究人群、主题领域和方法。共识别出 170 篇出版物，并将其分为 12 个主要主题。妊娠、分娩和产褥期是 47 项研究的主题，其次是儿童人体测量评估（29 项）、母乳喂养（24 项）和死亡率（13 项）。所选出版物代表了自 1996 年该杂志创刊以来发表的全部原创论文的 3.5%，以及 2015-2020 年期间发表的论文的 5%左右。主要数据来源是卫生服务记录、信息系统和人口调查。170 篇文章中有 113 篇采用了横断面设计，其中 70%只涵盖了一个直辖市。巴西东南部和东北部是大多数研究的目标区域，而北部地区的代表性最低。这些出版物反映了孕产妇和儿童健康主题的复杂性，特别强调了统一卫生系统的重要性，并展示了开放获取数据如何为公共卫生研究做出贡献。
