ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide. If diagnosed and treated early, it has a high chance of cure, and for this, screening tests are necessary, namely mammograms, which are the most commonly used. The objective of this study was to analyze the association between the number of screening and diagnostic mammograms and the number of hospitalizations and deaths from breast cancer.

METHODS:

This is a cross-sectional, analytical, retrospective study with secondary data made available by the Ministry of Health. Pearson correlation analysis was employed to assess whether the number of mammograms is associated with the number of deaths and hospitalizations, Poisson regression was used to assess whether an increase in the number of mammograms and hospitalizations is related to the number of deaths, and the Cox-Stuart test was used to analyze the temporal trend of the variables under study and the projection of time series.

RESULTS:

There was a strong positive correlation for all age groups when relating the variables hospitalizations and deaths, a moderate-to-strong correlation for the variables mammography and hospitalization, and a weak correlation for the variables mammography and death. There was no statistical significance in the relationship between the number of mammograms and deaths, whereas the hospitalization variable had a significant impact in relation to death, increasing the chance by 0.015%. There has also been a significant growth trend in the variables deaths and hospitalizations in Brazil over the years.

CONCLUSIONS:

A growing trend was identified from 2013 to 2021, both in hospitalizations and deaths, thus suggesting that strategies aimed at reformulating public health policies are necessary for earlier diagnosis in order to improve the treatment of breast cancer and the prognosis of the disease.
