17. Methods
• The study had a mixed ecological design, covering the period from 2004–
09 for 2853 (of 5565) municipalities with death and livebirth statistics of
adequate quality.
• BFP coverage was classified as low (0·0–17·1%), intermediate (17·2–
32·0%), high (>32·0%), or consolidated (>32·0% and target population
coverage 100% for at least 4 years).
• Multivariable regression analyses was performed for panel data with
fixed-effects negative binomial models, adjusted for relevant social and
economic covariates, and for the effect of the largest primary health-
care scheme in the country (Family Health Programme).
17
18. • Overall mortality and hospitalization rates for
children younger than 5 years (per 1000
livebirths)
• Selected causes of mortality and
hospitalization rates were calculates for:
– diarrhoeal diseases (A00, A01, A03, A04, A06-A09)
– malnutrition (E40-E46)
– lower respiratory infections (J10-J18, J20-J22)
– external causes (V01-Y98)
18
Methods: dependent varables
25. • BFP had a significant role in reduction of under-5 mortality, overall
and from poverty-related causes such as malnutrition and
diarrhoea, in Brazilian municipalities
• The effect was maintained even after the adjustment for
socioeconomic covariables and FHP, increasing consistently with
the level of coverage, specially when reaching full coverage of the
target population of poor families was maintained for 4 years or
more.
• FHP is associated with reduction of overall admissions to hospitals
and to those due to diarrhoea and lower respiratory infections.

Discussion
26. Discussion
• The results of the study provide evidence that a
multisectoral approach, combining a large-scale
conditional cash transfer programme and effective
primary health care can can substantially reduce
childhood mortality from poverty-related causes in a
large middle-income country such as Brazil.
• A small investment, as the CCT is, can
significantly increase the probability of
survivorship of the children.
26
27. In the future
• A more comprehensive and sophisticated
intervention such as Brazil without Ultra
Poverty can bring even greater impact on
health (and wellbeing) of the Brazilian poor
population
