Burn injuries among paediatric patients treated at Mexican public hospitals
INTRODUCTION: Paediatric burns are a leading cause of mortality among Mexican children, yet comprehensive national data are scarce. This retrospective cohort study provides an epidemiological analysis of paediatric burn injuries in Mexico using a nationwide hospitalisation database. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis of all paediatric burn patients aged 0-18 years (ICD-10 codes: T200-T329) who were hospitalised in the Mexican p…
‘Climate Change and Health Indicators’ and ‘Surgical System Strengthening’
Climate change is a public health emergency. Yet, incongruously, the healthcare sector is a significant source of global greenhouse gas emissions. Surgical systems are uniquely situated to address this public health crisis due to the high carbon footprint associated with surgical care delivery and the ability of strong surgical systems to foster broader climate resilience. There is an urgent need for climate change and health indicators (CCHIs) s…
Epidemiology of interpersonal violence among Mexican children and adolescents
This study analyzed IPV cases among children and adolescents in Mexico. Findings highlight the need for multi-faceted, age- and gender-specific interventions. Strengthening laws and policies, with a focus on reporting, enforcement, and mandatory training, is essential to protect children and adolescents from IPV
Integrating comprehensive surgical, intensive, and emergency care systems into the Pan American Health Organization’s health agenda
In October 2024, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) formally integrated surgical, intensive, and emergency care into its health agenda. This followed important events, including the June 2024 endorsement of the Strategy on Integrated Emergency, Critical and Operative Care 2025-2030 by the PAHO Executive Committee. This strategy builds on the 2015 World Health Assembly (WHA) Resolution 68.15, which recognized surgery as essential to unive…

Estimating the economic impact of interpersonal violence in Mexico in 2021
Objective. To calculate the economic impact of violence across Mexico in 2021 and project costs for 2021–2030. Methods. Incidence data was obtained from the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System, (SESNSP), National Population Council (CONAPO), National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI), and the National Survey of Victimization and Perception of Public Safety (ENVIPE). Our model incorporates incidence estimates o…
Racial and neighborhood disparities in mortality among hospitalized Covid-19 patients in the United States
Background Black and Hispanic populations have higher overall COVID-19 infection and mortality odds compared to Whites. Some state-wide studies conducted in the early months of the pandemic found no in-hospital racial disparities in mortality. Methods We performed chi-square and logistic regression analyses on the CDC COVID-19 Case Surveillance Restricted Database. The primary outcome of the study was all-cause in-hospital mortality. The primary …
