Recent advances in computational capacity and the availability of large datasets have stimulated the application of predictive methods from artificial intelligence, known as machine learning. In healthcare, mortality prediction can help improve decisions about preventive care, the necessity and intensity of medical care and to set priorities for hospitalization. We will analyze the result…
Mental disorders have been growing in importance and are now one of the leading causes of morbidity and incapacity, especially in large urban areas. This project aims to identify and analyze the social determinants of mental disorders in the ten megacities (cities with more than 10 million inhabitants) of the World Mental Health Survey Initiative (WMHSI): New York City, Los Angeles, Shang…

Maternal mortality remains a global challenge, especially in low and middle-income countries (LMICs), where 94% of maternal deaths occur. Despite advancements in the production, quality, and availability of data on maternal health and social conditions, traditional analysis methods fail to capture the specificities and interrelations among the various factors involved in maternal adverse …
Subclinical lesions in small vessels of the brain are pathological alterations that, although they do not cause obvious clinical symptoms, can be detected by advanced neuroimaging techniques. These lesions include cerebral microinfarcts, lacunes, white matter hyperintensities, microhemorrhages, and enlarged perivascular spaces, all of which are associated with an increased risk of cogniti…

Hypertension (AH) is a multifactorial clinical condition characterized by sustained elevation of blood pressure levels e 140 and/or 90 mmHg. In the pediatric population, according to the European Society of Hypertension Guidelines for Children and Adolescents (2016), the increased prevalence of hypertension in this public has become a major public health issue, leading a significant amoun…
The epidemiologic transition observed in Brazil in recent decades has led to a swift increase in the number of elderly individuals and their causes of morbidity and mortality. Currently, chronic diseases, particularly cardiovascular diseases, are responsible for the majority of deaths and hospitalizations in the country. Objective: To perform a longitudinal analysis of the risk factors fo…
Introduction: Most countries are going through a process of demographic transition, resulting in an increase of their elderly population. European countries experienced economic development before population aging. On the other hand, Brazil's elderly population growth happened within a low income environment. The elderly are more vulnerable to chronic diseases but also accidents such as f…
