RESUMO:

Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) or neglected infectious diseases are diseases that affect mainly people in a situation of socioeconomic vulnerability, who often live in precarious conditions, without attention from the public authorities. The objective of this research is to analyze the context of NTDs under socioeconomic and environmental aspects in the Legal Amazon, in the period between 2007 and 2016. With data provided by the Municipal Health Departments (Abaetetuba and Barcarena), in addition to data provided by the National Notification System (SINAN), it was possible to create a database about the most frequent NTDs in these municipalities and in the Amazonian capitals, this being an ecological, descriptive, and time series study, from the period 2007 to 2016. In addition to these data, socioeconomic and environmental data were obtained through the FIRJAN Municipal Development Index (IFDM), the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) and the National Sanitation Information System (SNIS). The data obtained were organized in Excel spreadsheets for the application of descriptive statistics and multivariate statistics - analysis of main components and hierarchical analysis of clusters -, to carry out statistical analysis. The most frequent NTDs in the Legal Amazon are Chagas disease, dengue fever, tuberculosis, visceral leishmaniasis and American cutaneous leishmaniasis. Schistosomiasis was not frequently found, justifying the fact that it is not an endemic disease in the region. All the municipalities analyzed presented at least four NTDs. The municipalities' MHDI did not present indices so low that they could justify such notifications. However, studies showed an association between notified NTDs and population growth and poor sanitary conditions. It is believed that a way to change this epidemiological reality in the Amazon is to elaborate and implement public policies, with financial planning that seeks to carry out viable and effective projects and programs that offer constant services of basic sanitation, drinking water and health education for all. the population.
