Increased Prevalence of Psychosocial, Behavioral, and Socio-Environmental Risk Factors among Overweight and Obese Youths in Mexico and the United States
The aim of this study was to examine various psychosocial, behavioral, and socio-environmental factors in a multiethnic sample of healthy-weight, overweight, and obese youths in the United States (US) and Mexico and determine differences by sex. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 633 youths aged 11-18 years who completed a self-reported questionnaire. Height and weight were measured to determine body mass index (BMI). Overweight and obese…
Influence of mealtime habits on the risk of weight gain and obesity in Mexican adults
Objective To prospectively examine the extent to which mealtime habits influences the risk of weight gain and obesity in Mexican adults. Design We performed a prospective cohort study. The Mealtime Habits Quality (MHQ) scale was used for assessing participants’ MHQ; the outcomes of interest were gain ≥5 % of body weight, developing overweight/obesity and abdominal obesity, after 7 years of follow-up. In order to estimate the independent effect of…
Conducta no saludable asociada con el desarrollo de presión arterial elevada en adolescentes
El artículo tiene como objetivo evaluar la asociación entre el patrón de conducta no saludable sobre la prevalencia y la incidencia de la presión arterial elevada en adolescentes. A partir de la información de un estudio de cohorte con una población en la medición basal de 2.813 adolescentes del sistema de educación pública, se determinó la prevalencia (basal) e incidencia de la presión arterial elevada, junto con el consumo de tabaco, alcohol, d…
Factors Influencing Mexican Women's Decisions to Vaccinate Daughters Against HPV in the United States and Mexico
Mexican and Mexican-American women bear high cervical cancer burdens, yet relationships between mothers' experiences of vaccinating daughters against cervical cancer-causing human papillomavirus (HPV) on both sides of the border are unknown. We surveyed 400 Mexican-born women in Oxnard, California, United States and Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico, about their beliefs and practices regarding daughters' HPV vaccination, conducting in-depth interviews …
Perceived health status and cardiometabolic risk among a sample of youth in Mexico
Sweetened beverage consumption and the risk of hyperuricemia in Mexican adults
Our findings suggest that the consumption of SB is associated with an increased risk of hyperuricemia in Mexican adults. However, longitudinal research is needed to confirm the association between SB intake and hyperuricemia
Accuracy of body fat percent and adiposity indicators cut off values to detect metabolic risk factors in a sample of Mexican adults
BMI and WC were more accurate than BF% for classifying the studied metabolic disorders. International BF% cutoffs had very low specificity and thus produced a high rate of false positives in both sexes
Exercise-referral scheme to promote physical activity among hypertensive patients
Clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01910935. Date of registration: 07/05/2013
Sweetened beverage consumption and increased risk of metabolic syndrome in Mexican adults
Objective To examine the relationship between sweetened beverage consumption and components of the metabolic syndrome in a Mexican population. Design We performed a cross-sectional analysis of data from selected adults participating in the baseline assessment of the Health Workers Cohort Study. Information on participants’ sociodemographic characteristics, dietary patterns and physical activity were collected via self-administered questionnaires.…
Physical activity and risk of Metabolic Syndrome in an urban Mexican cohort
Our results indicate that both leisure-time and workplace activity at different intensity levels, including low-intensity significantly reduce the risk of MS. This finding highlights the need for more recommendations regarding the specific amount and intensity of leisure-time and workplace activity needed to prevent MS

An integrated method for evaluating community-based safe water programmes and an application in rural Mexico
The burden of diarrhoeal disease remains high in the developing world. Community-based safe drinking water programmes are being promoted as cost-effective interventions that will help reduce this illness burden. However, the effectiveness of these programmes remains under-investigated. The primary argument of this paper is that the biological exposure reductions underlying safe water interventions vary tremendously over space and time, and studie…
Proposal to institutionalize criteria and quality standards for cervical cancer screening within a health care system
The uterine cervix is the most common cancer site for females. Approximately 52,000 new cases occur annually in Latin America, thus the need to improve efficiency and effectiveness of Cervical Cancer Screening Programs (CCSP) is mandatory to decrease the unnecessary suffering women must bear. This paper is addressing essential issues to revamp the CCSP as proposed by the Mexican official norm. A general framework for institutionaling CCSP is outl…
Infant Mortality Due to Acute Respiratory Infections
A population-based case control study was conducted to ascertain whether the process of primary care can be a determinant of infant mortality due to Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI). Cases were 118 infants who died from ARI, individually matched with 118 infants who suffered an ARI episode and recovered. Information was gathered through interviewing mothers. Study variables were assembled into five subsets: children's characteristics; mothers' c…
