Resumen
Descripción
Several studies have highlighted the importance of the One Health approach, which integrates the dimensions of human, animal, and environmental health, in understanding the dynamics of vector-borne diseases, such as dengue. The present study aimed to analyze possible correlations between the incidence of dengue, loss of vegetation, and precipitation. Annual records of dengue cases were obtained from the Information System for Notifiable Diseases (SINAN) of the Ministry of Health between 2003 and 2023. The Mapbiomas database was used to obtain native vegetation losses and gains. Annual precipitation data came from the Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data (CHIRPS) database. Pearson's coefficient (R) was applied to understand the correlations between the variables. Among the years analyzed, a weak positive correlation was observed between precipitation and dengue occurrence (R = 0.25) and a weak negative correlation between vegetation loss and dengue (R = -0.079). The highest number of cases was recorded in 2005, coinciding with a period of high rainfall. Although statistical correlations were weak, the results suggest a influence of precipitation on the incidence of dengue in the municipality of Boa Vista do Tupim (BA). The study reinforces the importance of integrated public policies that combine environmental conservation and vector control, in line with the principles of One Health. In the future, the aim is to deepen the analysis of socio-environmental dynamics by incorporating local data collected by the Semear Digital Group new land use and land cover change (LULC) mappings.
