Abstract
O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a infecção pelo HIV em Manaus, Amazonas no período de 1986 a 2000. Estudo descritivo dos casos confirmados de HIV/Aids em adultos, registrados nos prontuários do Serviço de Referência Estadual, foi realizado. Para o delineamento da epidemiologia espacial e tendência histórica foram considerados os períodos: 1986-1990, 1991-1995 e 1996-2000. As variáveis comportamentais, sociais e clínicas foram analisadas por meio de estatística descritiva. Mapas temáticos apresentaram os padrões e tendências espaciais e taxas de incidência segundo bairros de residência. Entre os 1.400 casos estudados, a letalidade diminuiu de 61,3% para 17,8%, a razão entre sexos (4 homens/1 mulher) diminuiu durante o período do estudo, a principal via de exposição foi a sexual: bissexual (31%) e heterossexual (19,3%) e o alto índice de diagnóstico tardio realizado na fase sintomática da Aids (50,8%). Este estudo mostrou que a infecção pelo HIV/Aids em Manaus apresenta difusão lenta e progressiva localizada na área central da cidade, dispersiva no sentido centro-sul para o norte, leste e oeste.
The objective of this study was to describe HIV infection in Manaus, Amazonas, between 1986 and 2000. This was a descriptive study on confirmed cases of HIV/AIDS among adults, from the medical records of the State Reference Service. To delineate the spatial epidemiological profile and historical trends, the following periods were considered: 1986-1990, 1991-1995 and 1996-2000. The behavioral, social and clinical variables were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics. The spatial trends and patterns and the incidence rates were presented according to residential district using thematic maps. Among the 1,400 cases studied, the mortality rate decreased from 61.3% to 17.8% and the gender ratio (four men/one woman) decreased over the study period. The main exposure route was sexual: bisexual (31%) and heterosexual (19.3%). There was a high rate of late diagnosis, made during the symptomatic phase of AIDS (50.8%). This study showed that HIV/AIDS infection in Manaus has spread slowly and progressively from the central area of the city towards the south, north, east and west.
