Abstract

Objectives: We investigated whether the application of the LIRAa monitoring tool (Aedes aegypti Fast Infestation Survey) had an impact on lowering the Dengue incidence rate in the municipalities of the country. Methods: Two methods were all used, the first was difference in differences (DiD) and Event Study, being both estimated by balanced panel data. The study was carried out considering the 2001-2016 period. The National Information and Injuries System (SINAN), National Sanitation Information System (SNIS), National Institute of Space Research (INPE) and the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) were the main data sources. Results: By using the method of difference in differences, the municipalities that accounted for the LIRAa presented a significant decrease in the rate of Dengue incidence of approximately 144 cases in a universe of 100,000 inhabitants during the period (b3 = -143.73; IC95% -320.51 – 13.12). For the Event Study, the results behaved similarly, with a result of 274 cases in average (j9 = -274.02; IC95% -430.93 - 117.12). Conclusion: It was concluded that LIRAa in an important tool for monitoring Dengue, since it provides data capable to guide the public policies in a community.

评估 LIRAa 作为登革热监测工具的有效性

研究目的我们调查了 LIRAa 监测工具（埃及伊蚊快速感染调查）的应用是否对降低该国各市的登革热发病率产生了影响。方法：研究使用了两种方法，第一种是差分法（DiD），第二种是事件研究法（Event Study），这两种方法都是通过平衡面板数据进行估算的。研究时间跨度为 2001-2016 年。主要数据来源包括国家信息和伤害系统（SINAN）、国家卫生信息系统（SNIS）、国家空间研究所（INPE）以及巴西地理统计局（IBGE）。研究结果根据差异法，在此期间，LIRAa 所涉及的城市登革热发病率显著下降，以 10 万居民为单位，减少了约 144 例（b3 = -143.73；IC95% -320.51-13.12）。事件研究的结果与此类似，平均为 274 例（j9 = -274.02；IC95% -430.93 -117.12）。结论LIRAa 是监测登革热的重要工具，因为它提供的数据能够指导社区的公共政策。
