Abstract

Environmental Epidemiology analyzes how existing risks (physical, biological, mechanical, ergonomic and psychosocial) interfere with the health of human populations. This Course Completion Work aims to verify the publications on the subject in the Brazilian journal of epidemiology. This is a descriptive research, based on a review of the database of the Revista Brasileira de Epidemiologia online version ISSN 1980-5497, considering the period from 1998 to 2021. A total of 23 volumes distributed in 87 numbers or editions (87 %) and supplements (13%) were found during the period. Of a total of 1258 original articles, 258 dealt with environmental epidemiology. Considering the special articles, of the 18 published, only 1 was about environmental epidemiology. In 2003, number 2 of volume 6 was dedicated to the subject of environmental epidemiology. All 8 articles published focused on this topic. The two most frequently published topics were linked to pesticides and related to work. It is concluded that the various topics covered in the journal discuss information about the characteristics of exposure and health effects that constitute the main substrates in such epidemiological studies, suggesting the importance of environmental epidemiology to support decision-makers on the prevention of injuries in human populations via environmental surveillance.
