The mortality rate due to mental and behavioral disorders among Brazilian men is projected to gradually increase from 26.1 per 100,000 in 2024 to 31.3 by 2028. This entails an annual growth between 5.7% to 4.1% over the forecasted years with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 4.5% for the period. The rise mirrors broader challenges facing national public health and mental health service frameworks.
Future trends to monitor include:
