Stigma and structural violence in health care during trans people’s transitions in México City
Trans people in Mexico City encounter stigma and structural violence throughout social, medical, and legal transitions, leading to poorer health and secondary disabilities. Yet these processes are not sufficiently documented, and community-based recommendations are rare. Methods: Multisite ethnographic study (Sept 2021 May 2024) with participant/non-participant observation and 20 semi-structured interviews (18 trans participants, two providers). …
Bioarchaeology of Care in Tzintzuntzan, Western Mexico
Chronic otitis and mastoiditis are inflammatory processes that can lead to deafness and disability if left untreated, especially in the pre-antibiotic era and in fishing communities with high exposure to infection. This study describes lesions on temporal bones found in Tzintzuntzan, a prehispanic city located near Lake Pátzcuaro, Michoacán, in western Mexico. A multidisciplinary team analyzed a sample ( N = 96) of temporal bones using morphoscop…

Admission of terminally ill patients into pediatric palliative care remains a challenge in Mexico and Latin America, despite the multiple benefits of early transfer. In this context the trajectories in search of health care of patients and caregivers have not been documented. Therefore, the objective of this study was to describe and analyze the experiences of primary caregivers and family members of pediatric patients in the palliative care unit…

Co-design of a Community-based Rehabilitation Program to Decrease Musculoskeletal Disabilities in a Mayan-Yucateco Municipality
Co-designing a CBR program for people living with chronic MSK diseases in Chankom was possible through an extensive community engagement work structured around four main processes, including the essential principles of CBPR. The designed CBR program includes culturally sensitive interventions aimed at improving the quality, availability, accessibility, and acceptability of health care services. Moreover, the program mainly addressed the "health" …
Structural violence and the need for compassionate use of methadone in Mexico
Compassionate methadone treatment and holistic attention should be considered as a way to meet patients' needs and mitigate their suffering, based on public health policy that allows for human rights-based care
Vulnerability as a palimpsest
Vulnerability is a concept associated with the effects of social inequities to access health care services. On a hospital level, vulnerable populations must be identified and favored over others. The aims of this study were the analysis of the conceptions and practices of social workers regarding vulnerable patients, and the identification of theoretical elements of vulnerability given by academics. Hospital ethnography and a focus group were imp…
Heterogeneity of Covid-19 Risk Perception
The perception of risk has been a key element in the experiences, containment and differential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide. The complexity of this phenomenon requires the interdisciplinary integration of theoretical and methodological aspects, as this integration informs the objective of developing a mathematical proposal based on a conceptual model located within the social theory of risk at the micro-social level. The mathematical…

Las medidas para responder a la pandemia de Covid-19 han tenido un enorme costo individual y social, afectando en forma diferencial a mujeres y varones. Este artículo demuestra las diferencias por género de algunos efectos familiares e individuales en la población de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), basándose en una encuesta realizada entre 12 158 universitarios. Las mujeres manifiestan mayores efectos diferenciales en todo, esp…
Indigenous Identification by Health Professionals in a Mexican Hospital Setting
In this article, we describe and analyze the identification of people as Indigenous by health-care professionals in a hospital in Mexico City. This socially constructed identification is based on a "contrasting identity" of essentialist and stereotyped categories (language, place of origin, cultural practices, and poverty) that promote the normalization of inequity, marginality, and racism. The ambivalence of the invisibility of the indigenous in…

Doctor-Patient Relationship Between Individuals With Fibromyalgia and Rheumatologists in Public and Private Health Care in Mexico
The aim of this article was to describe and analyze the doctor-patient relationship between fibromyalgia patients and rheumatologists in public and private health care contexts within the Mexican health care system. This medical anthropological study drew on hospital ethnography and patients' illness narratives, as well as the experiences of rheumatologists from both types of health care services. The findings show how each type of medical care s…
Not-Belonging
In the study that we describe in this article, we aimed to preserve the voices of people suffering from chronic pain by encouraging them to tell the story of their suffering. Participants' stories reflect how chronic pain has altered their lives. This is partly due to their discomfort, but also to the frustration they experience from delays in diagnosis and treatment. Patients often pursue a lengthy quest for medical care that culminates in the d…
