Women in prison have high risk for non-communicable diseases both in relation to men in prison and in relation to women in the general population. This study documented the health disparities related to diseases among women in prison and in the general female population in Brazil. Women in prisons (WP) < 30 years old had a prevalence of hypertension (PR = 4.5; 95% CI 3.4-6.1), cardiovascular disease (PR = 4.4; 95% CI 2.4-7.9) and asthma (PR = 3.0; 95% CI 2.3-3.8) higher than general female population in Brazil in the same age group. Women in prison > 50 years old also presented asthma prevalence (PR = 4.3; 95% CI 2.9-6.3) higher than the general female population in Brazil in the same age group. These women in prison, overwhelmingly young, could be mistaken for an elderly population in Brazil. Actively responding to early disease in these women can reduce overall health costs and improve health care for this population that may have limited access to health care outside of prison.
监狱中的女性无论与监狱中的男性相比，还是与普通女性人群相比，患非传染性疾病的风险都很高。本研究记录了巴西监狱女性与普通女性人群中与疾病相关的健康差异。监狱中的年轻女性（<30 岁）患高血压（PR=4.5；95%CI 3.4-6.1）、心血管疾病（PR=4.4；95%CI 2.4-7.9）和哮喘（PR=3.0；95%CI 2.3-3.8）的比例高于同年龄组巴西普通女性人群。年龄较大的女性（>50 岁）监狱中的女性也患有哮喘（PR=4.3；95%CI 2.9-6.3），比例高于同年龄组巴西普通女性人群。这些监狱中的女性绝大多数都很年轻，可能会被误认为是巴西的老年人群。积极应对这些女性的早期疾病可以降低整体医疗成本，并改善医疗保健，因为这些女性在监狱外可能很难获得医疗保健。
