Modelo Bayesiano e análise espacial da mortalidade por cancer de boca e orofaringe em Minas Gerais, Brasil

摘要

The objective of this study was to determine of oral and oropharynx cancer mortality rate and the results were analyzed by applying the Spatial Analysis of Empirical Bayesian Model. To this end, we used the information contained in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10), Chapter II, Category C00 to C14 and Brazilian Mortality Information System (SIM) of Minas Gerais State. Descriptive statistics were observed and the gross rate of mortality was calculated for each municipality. Then Empirical Bayesian estimators were applied. The results showed that, in 2012, in the state of Minas Gerais, were registered 769 deaths of patients with cancer of oral and oropharynx, with 607 (78.96%) men and 162 (21.04%) women. There was a wide variation in spatial distribution of crude mortality rate and were identified agglomeration in the South, Central and North more accurately by Bayesian Estimator Global and Local Model. Through Bayesian models was possible to map the spatial clustering of deaths from oral cancer more accurately, and with the application of the method of spatial epidemiology, it was possible to obtain more accurate results and provide subsidies to reduce the number of deaths from this type of cancer.
