  • Are extensions in paid parental leave associated with lower infant and neonatal mortality in Latin American cities? Evidence from 148 cities in Chile, Mexico, and Colombia (2000-2015)

    Open Access•Asiya Validova, Jessica Uruchima et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2025•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 22

    We examined changes in infant and neonatal mortality that occurred after extension in the minimum number of days of paid maternity leave and after the implementation of paid paternity leave in 148 cities using longitudinal city-level data (2000-2015) from Chile, Colombia, and Mexico, compiled and harmonized by the Salud Urbana en America Latina (SALURBAL) study. For Chile we also explored variations in these associations according to the mother's…

  • Binge drinking associated with mean temperature

    Open Access•Martha Carnalla, Nancy López-Olmedo et al.•ARTICLE•Globalization and Health•2024

    BACKGROUND: The association between environmental temperature and alcohol consumption has not been widely explored despite the potential that increasing temperatures could promote the consumption of alcoholic beverages and the alcohol-related burden of disease. We aimed to explore the association between temperature and binge drinking in Mexican adults from urban cities, overall, and by alcoholic beverage type. METHODS: Data on 10,552 adults ≥ 18…

  • Prevalence of Post-Covid conditions among Mexican Covid-19 survivors

    Open Access•Yenisei Ramírez-Toscano, Leticia Torres‐Ibarra et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2024

  • Urban Environments, Health, and Environmental Sustainability

    Open Access•Ana V Diez Roux, Marcio Alazraqui et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Urban Health•2024

    Despite the relevance of cities and city policies for health, there has been limited examination of large numbers of cities aimed at characterizing urban health determinants and identifying effective policies. The relatively few comparative studies that exist include few cities in lower and middle income countries. The Salud Urbana en America Latina study (SALURBAL) was launched in 2017 to address this gap. The study has four aims: (1) to investi…

  • Research Translation to Promote Urban Health in Latin America

    Open Access•S Claire Slesinski, Katherine Indvik et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Urban Health•2024•Referencias: 3

    In highly urbanized and unequal Latin America, urban health and health equity research are essential to effective policymaking. To ensure the application of relevant and context-specific evidence to efforts to reduce urban health inequities, urban health research in Latin America must incorporate strategic research translation efforts. Beginning in 2017, the Urban Health in Latin America (SALURBAL) project implemented policy-relevant research and…

Methods: We used data from Mexico's National Income and Expenditure Survey from …

  • Building upon the sugar beverage tax in Mexico

    Open Access•Juan Carlos Salgado Hernández, Ana Basto Abreu et al.•ARTICLE•BMJ Global Health•2023

    INTRODUCTION: In 2014, Mexico implemented a one peso-per-litre tax to sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB). Even though this tax reduced household purchases and predicted population health gains, the magnitude is lower compared with taxes implemented in other settings. In this study, we assessed what would happen if Mexico modified its existing tax to get higher benefits based on currently implemented taxes elsewhere. METHODS: For each tax scenario, we…

We investigated variation in ABR within and between cities, and whether different features of urban social environments are associated with ABR. METHODS: We included 363 cities in 9 Latin American countries. We collec…

  • Changes in the Retail Food Environment in Mexican Cities and Their Association with Blood Pressure Outcomes

    Open Access•Marina Armendariz, Carolina Perez-Ferrer et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    Shifting food environments in Latin America have potentially contributed to an increase in the consumption of ultra-processed foods and sugar-sweetened beverages, along with decreases in healthy foods, such as fruits and vegetables. Yet, little is known about the impact that such changes in the food environment have on blood pressure in low- and middle-income countries, including Mexico. We utilized individual-level systolic and diastolic blood p…

  • Aging and self-reported health in 114 Latin American cities

    Open Access•Marianela Castillo‐Riquelme, Marianela Castillo-Riquelme et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2022

    Across cities in Latin America, aging impact on health is significant among middle-aged adults, and among men. In both genders, cities with lower SEI or lower GDP per-capita were associated with poor SRH. More research is needed to better understand gender inequalities and how city socioeconomic environments, represented by different indicators, modify exposures and vulnerabilities associated with aging

  • Potential impacts of policies to reduce purchasing of ultra-processed foods in Mexico at different stages of the social transition

    Open Access•Brent A Langellier, Ivana Stankov et al.•ARTICLE•Public Health Nutrition•2022

    Objectives: To develop a simulation framework for assessing how combinations of taxes, nutrition warning labels and advertising levels could affect purchasing of ultra-processed foods (UPF) in Latin American countries and to understand whether policies reinforce or reduce pre-existing social disparities in UPF consumption. Design: We developed an agent-based simulation model using international evidence regarding the effect of price, nutrition wa…

Changes in the food store count were estimated using fixed-effects Poisson regression models, including coefficients for time, socioeconomic deprivation, and their interaction. We found a rapid gro…

  • Potential Impact of the Nonessential Energy-Dense Foods Tax on the Prevalence of Overweight and Obesity in Children

    Open Access•Daniel Illescas-Zárate, Carolina Batis et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2021

    Background: Consumption of foods high in energy, sugar, fat, and salt contributes to the increase in body mass index and the prevalence of overweight and obesity in children. Mexico implemented an 8% tax to non-essential energy-dense foods (NEDF) in 2014 as part of a national strategy to reduce obesity. Objective: We modeled the potential effect of the NEDF tax on body mass index and overweight and obesity in Mexican children (6–17 years). Materi…
