To analyze temporal trends of mortality due to suicide among adults in Brazil, by macroregion and gender, from 2000 to 2015.
A retrospective study of temporal trends in suicide mortality rates in adults aged 20 to 64 years, by macroregion and gender, from 2000 to 2015. Data from the Brazilian Mortality Database (SIM) and from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) were used. The mortality rate trends analysis was performed using simple linear regression, with Stata 14 software.
There was an upward trend in mortality due to intentionally inflicted self-harm in the Brazilian adult population in the North, Northeast, and Southeast regions for both genders (p<0.001), with predominance in the male population in these three regions and throughout the country (p<0.001). A downward trend was observed in the South and Midwest (p=0.003 and p=0.040).
Mortality due to intentionally inflicted self-harm has increased in Brazil, but has undergone important variations in different parts of the country. Even a regional analysis is insufficient to achieve a thorough evaluation of these contrasts because of the country's continental proportions and data collection biases. Further studies focused on this topic are required.
分析 2000 至 2015 年期间巴西成年人自杀死亡率的时间趋势，按大区和性别划分。
本研究为回顾性时间趋势研究，分析了 2000 至 2015 年期间年龄在 20 至 64 岁之间的成年人的自杀死亡率，按大区和性别划分。使用了来自巴西死亡率数据库（SIM）和巴西地理与统计研究所（IBGE）的数据。使用 Stata 14 软件进行死亡率趋势分析，采用简单线性回归。
在巴西北部、东北部和东南部，所有性别群体的自杀死亡率均呈上升趋势（p<0.001），在这三个地区以及全国范围内，男性群体更为明显（p<0.001）。在南部和中西部地区，自杀死亡率呈下降趋势（p=0.003 和 p=0.040）。
巴西的故意自伤自杀死亡率呈上升趋势，但在该国不同地区存在重要差异。即使进行区域分析，也不足以全面评估这些差异，因为巴西地域辽阔且数据收集存在偏差。需要进一步开展针对该主题的研究。
