BackgroundLimited data from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) on the severity of road traffic injuries (RTIs) and their relation to different variables of interest are routinely obtained. Knowledge on this subject relies on evidence from high-income countries, which might not be the same as in LMICs. This information is greatly needed to adv...

To describe subdermal implant use in Mexico over time, by state and by age. We conducted a repeated cross-sectional study using the 2009, 2014, and 2018 waves of the National Survey of Demographic Dynamics (Encuesta Nacional de la Dinámica Demográfica [ENADID]). Our outcome was current use of contraception, by type, with a focus on the implant. We ...

Substance use and depressive psychiatric symptoms have been associated with migration and mobility. The Mexico-Guatemala border is a key transit point for internal, regional, and international migration flows. However, there is limited knowledge of the role of substance use, migration, and mobility on mental health among migrants at this border. Ou...

Cost is one of the main drivers of food selection; thus it is important to monitor food prices. Evidence from low- and middle-income countries such as Mexico is limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prices and price trends of healthy and less healthy food/beverage groups in Mexico from 2011 to 2018. This study used a time series of the...

Abstract Objective: This study aims to analyze the probability of an increase in mortality due to venous thrombosis of the lower limbs (VTLL), and it´s relation to days of hospital stay. Materials and methods: We included all hospital records of patients with thrombosis in the lower limbs as main diagnosis from open access national datasets, we obt...

Due to karstic bedrock geology and poor wastewater management practices, anthropogenic activities are impacting water quality in Yucatan's aquatic systems. Specifically, raw wastewater inputs to the aquifer subsequently flow to coastal lagoons through groundwater fluxes. This study establishes the presence of anthropogenic wastewater by measuring c...

Pain
Pain increases with age, disproportionately affects women, and is a major contributor to decreased quality of life. Because pain is dynamic, trajectories are important to consider. Few studies have examined longitudinal trajectories of pain, by gender, in Mexico. We used data from 5 waves (over 2001-2018) of the Mexican Health and Aging Study, a na...

许多生物类群成功开拓了地下水环境, 并适应了在地下 (暗层) 生活。这些类群包括淡水腹足类 (地下淡水螺) , 它们代表了北美地下水生态系统中分布广泛、类群多样的组成部分。然而, 由于取样的困难和缺乏有针对性的研究, 地下淡水螺仍是所有地下类群中研究最少的。我们通过文献综述评估了地下淡水螺的生物多样性和地理关系, 以及与它们居住的地下水系统中相关的威胁、管理活动和政策考虑。我们发现美国和墨西哥喀斯特地区的一系列地下水栖息地中有 39 种已知的地下淡水螺。大多数地下淡水螺只在极狭窄的范围内特有分布, 导致它们在单一灾难性事件中灭绝的风险很高。我们还发现, 人类驱动的地表环境变化导致了局部地区水文变化及地下淡水螺居住的地下水系统退化, 如沉积增加、入侵物种引入、地下水开采或含水通道的物理坍塌。因...
