Monthly time series of deaths from various diseases, Brazil, The grey line represents observed data and the bold central line the estimated seasonal-trend mortality model calculated from 1996 to 2008, and extrapolated up to Thin grey lines represent the 95% CI. Positive and negative residuals (grey bars) represent positive and negative differences between the data and the 95% CI. Excess mortality was calculated as the sum of all residuals within the pandemic period (shaded area). The onset of excess mortality from P&I and respiratory causes (Fig.1) coincided with the period when laboratory-confirmed A/H1N1 deaths were increasingly reported (shaded area; Fig.1), supporting the association between excess P&I and respiratory mortality and pandemic virus activity. Conversely, there was no excess mortality in 2009 or 2010 from circulatory (Fig.1), or from cerebrovascular and ischemic heart disease (data not shown)causes. Mortality from renal causes was also higher in 2009 and 2010 than in previous years (Fig.1). However, there was substantial excess mortality from renal causes well before the estimated start of pandemic virus circulation in Brazil and until the end of 2010, well after the notification of pandemic cases and deaths had nearly ceased in Brazil.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
