Abstract

Objective: to identify how the literature presents the relation between tuberculosis and social inequalities.

Method: integrative review in which the combination of the descriptors “tuberculosis” and “social iniquity” guided the search for articles available in PubMed. A total of 274 articles were identified, and after reading the title and abstract, 13 studies were selected. The empirical material was analyzed according to the hermeneutics, highlighting the variables related to social inequalities, seeking to understand the main themes that embody the association between tuberculosis and social inequalities.

Results: In general, the literature presents the social inequalities as factors that can interfere in the cure and/or control of the disease, such as age, income, unemployment, unskilled labor, access to health services, among others. Therefore, it does not include a deeper relationship between the organization of society and the production of the disease.

Conclusion and implications for practice: A comprehensive understanding of tuberculosis disease is required, in order to expand interventions to support the control and elimination of the disease and, above all, the reduction of social inequalities. The understanding of tuberculosis as a disease enables expanding strategies to face it.

Resumen

Objetivo: identificar cómo la literatura presenta la relación de la tuberculosis y desigualdades sociales.

Método: revisión integrativa en que la combinación de los descriptores “tuberculosis” y “social iniquity” orientaron la investigación de artículos disponibles en el PubMed. Se identificaron 274 artículos, y después de la lectura del título y resumen, se seleccionaron 13 estudios. El material empírico fue analizado según la hermenéutica, con destaque a las variables relacionadas a las desigualdades sociales, buscando aprehender los principales temas que corporifican la asociación entre tuberculosis y desigualdades sociales.

Resultados: En general, la literatura presenta las desigualdades sociales como factores que pueden interferir en la cura y/o control de la enfermedad, especialmente: edad, ingresos, desempleo, trabajo no calificado, acceso a servicios de salud, entre otros. No incluye, por lo tanto, una relación más profunda entre la organización de la sociedad y la producción de la enfermedad.

Conclusión e implicación para la práctica: Se requiere comprensión totalizante de la enfermedad por tuberculosis, con la finalidad de ampliar intervenciones para que apoyen el control y la eliminación de la enfermedad y, sobre todo, la reducción de las desigualdades sociales. La comprensión de la tuberculosis como una enfermedad relacionada con la determinación social posibilita ampliar las estrategias para su enfrentamiento.

Resumo

Objetivo: Identificar como a literatura apresenta a relação entre a tuberculose e as desigualdades sociais.

Método: Revisão integrativa em que a combinação dos descritores “tuberculosis” e “social inequity” orientaram a pesquisa de artigos disponíveis no PubMed. Foram identificados 274 artigos e, após a leitura do título e resumo, foram selecionados 13 estudos. O material empírico foi analisado segundo a hermenêutica, com destaque às variáveis relacionadas às desigualdades sociais, buscando-se apreender os principais temas que corporificam a associação entre a tuberculose e as desigualdades sociais.

Resultados: De modo geral, a literatura apresenta as desigualdades sociais como fatores, que podem interferir na cura e/ou no controle da doença, com destaque para: idade, renda, desemprego, trabalho não qualificado, acesso aos serviços de saúde, entre outros. Não inclui, portanto, uma relação mais profunda entre a organização da sociedade e a produção da doença.

Conclusão e Implicações para a prática: Requer-se compreensão totalizante do adoecimento por tuberculose, com a finalidade de ampliar intervenções que apoiem o controle e a eliminação da enfermidade e, sobretudo, a redução das desigualdades sociais. A compreensão da tuberculose como uma doença relacionada à determinação social possibilita ampliar as estratégias para o seu enfrentamento.
