Life expectancy and healthy-adjusted life expectancy in Mexico by social security status
OBJECTIVE: Mexican health system is organized around social security (SS) entitlement, dividing the population into insured and uninsured groups, which represents a potential source of health inequity. The objective is to analyze life expectancy (LE) and healthy-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) between both populations. METHOD: Ecological study was conducted at national and state levels for 2020, disaggregated by sex. LE and HALE for both populati…
Metropolitan inequalities in health system resources and Covid-19 adjusted life expectancy among older adults in Mexico
Introduction: The mortality and morbidity consequences of the COVID-19 outbreak were concentrated among older adults. The health system response was critical to mitigating its negative effects, particularly through the redistribution of healthcare resources across territories. The objective of this study was to analyze inequities in the distribution of health resources in Mexico in relation to life expectancy (LE) and COVID-19 adjusted life expec…
Desempeño del Sistema de Salud de México
OBJECTIVE: To analyze variations in the performance of the Mexican health system (measured through life expectancy and premature mortality, as well as geographical inequality in these indicators) based on reforms to the General Health Law (LGS) carried out between 1984 and 2023.. METHOD: A retrospective longitudinal study using health outcome indicators (standardized rate of potentially avoidable premature mortality [PAPM] and life expectancy at …

Global, regional, and national burden of diabetes from 1990 to 2021, with projections of prevalence to 2050
BACKGROUND: Diabetes is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide, and affects people regardless of country, age group, or sex. Using the most recent evidentiary and analytical framework from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD), we produced location-specific, age-specific, and sex-specific estimates of diabetes prevalence and burden from 1990 to 2021, the proportion of type 1 and type 2 diabetes…

Type 2 diabetes and depressive symptoms in the adult population in Mexico
The availability of analytical frameworks such as the syndemic perspective could help to identify areas of opportunity for decision making and actions for population groups that-because of their individual, contextual and structural disadvantages-are at greater risk of experiencing poorer health outcomes due to the presence of T2D and depressive symptoms
Global, regional, and national progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 for neonatal and child health
BACKGROUND: Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 has targeted elimination of preventable child mortality, reduction of neonatal death to less than 12 per 1000 livebirths, and reduction of death of children younger than 5 years to less than 25 per 1000 livebirths, for each country by 2030. To understand current rates, recent trends, and potential trajectories of child mortality for the next decade, we present the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, a…
Mapping inequalities in exclusive breastfeeding in low- and middle-income countries, 2000-2018
Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF)-giving infants only breast-milk for the first 6 months of life-is a component of optimal breastfeeding practices effective in preventing child morbidity and mortality. EBF practices are known to vary by population and comparable subnational estimates of prevalence and progress across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are required for planning policy and interventions. Here we present a geospatial analysis of E…
Global, regional, and national burden of chronic kidney disease, 1990–2017
BACKGROUND: Health system planning requires careful assessment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) epidemiology, but data for morbidity and mortality of this disease are scarce or non-existent in many countries. We estimated the global, regional, and national burden of CKD, as well as the burden of cardiovascular disease and gout attributable to impaired kidney function, for the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2017. We use…
Advances and challenges on the path toward the SDGs
BACKGROUND: The sustainable development goals (SDGs) have generated momentum for global health, aligning efforts from governments and international organisations toward a set of goals that are expected to reflect improvements in life conditions across the globe. Mexico has huge social inequalities that can affect access to quality care and health outcomes. The objective of this study is to analyse inequalities among Mexico's 32 states on the heal…
Health care trajectories and barriers to treatment for patients with end-stage renal disease without health insurance in Mexico
Mexico urgently needs to implement public policies related to CKD that are primarily directed at its prevention but should also implement policies directed at slowing its progression, reducing its complications, and providing funding for uninsured patients who require RRT. These policies must be based on the perspectives of human rights and equality, and the perspectives of patients, their families and the general population should be included in…
Factors associated with environmental barriers of people with disabilities in Mexico
OBJECTIVE: To examine the associations between sociodemographic, health and disabilityrelated factors and the perception of environmental barriers outside the home environment by individuals with permanent disabilities in Mexico. METHODS: In this cross-sectional, population-based study, we used data from the 2010 National Survey of Perceptions of Disability in the Mexican Population of 2,041 participants older than 18 with permanent disability. T…
Qualitative exploration of the experiences of informal care-givers for dependent older adults in Mexico City
Population ageing and increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and their consequences, changes in family structure and a decrease in the potential pool of family care, increase the need for formal long-term care for older adults in Mexico, and the need to understand the experiences of informal care-givers and how this impacts their social, family and personal conditions. This study investigates the experience of informal care-givers of dependent…
Changes in life expectancy due to avoidable and non-avoidable deaths in Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Mexico, 2000-2011
The objective of this study was to analyze the level and trend of avoidable deaths and non-avoidable deaths and their contribution to the change in life expectancy in Latin America by studying the situations in Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Mexico between the years 2000 and 2011, stratified by sex and 5-year age groups. The information source used in this study was the mortality vital statistics, and the population data were obtained from census…
