Dengue fever incidence and its geographical distribution are increasing throughout the world. Quality timely information is essential for prevention control. A web based, geographically enabled, dengue integral surveillance system (Dengue-GIS) was developed nation-wide collection, integration, analysis reporting of geo-referenced epidemiologic, entomologic, control interventions data. Consensus in design practical operation a key factor acceptance. Working with systems already implemented as...
Dengue is currently the most widespread vector-borne disease, and its transmission has been intensively studied in endemic/hyperendemic localities. However, to obtain a complete picture of dengue transmission, it necessary study nonendemic Imported cases have reported Mexico City, presence eggs vector Aedes aegypti detected. In present study, we determined prevalence IgG antibodies against virus four city boroughs via random cluster sampling individuals aged 5-35 years. The weighted...
Abstract In Mexico, mosquito vector‐borne diseases are of public health concern as a result their impact on human morbidity and mortality. The use insecticides against adult mosquitoes is one the most common ways controlling population densities. However, these compounds has resulted in development insecticide resistance. aim this study was to estimate susceptibility six pyrethroids, two carbamates organophosphates Mexican populations Stegomyia aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) (= Aedes ) (Diptera:...
The study of endemic dengue transmission is essential for proposing alternatives to impact its burden. traditional paradigm establishes that starts around cases, but there are few studies determine the risk.To assess association between peridomestic infection and exposure a index case (IC), cohort was carried out in two Mexican communities. People cohabitating with IC or living within 50-meter radius (exposed cohort) subjects areas no ICs 200-meter (unexposed were included.Exposure...
Introduction Mathematical models and field data suggest that human mobility is an important driver for Dengue virus transmission. Nonetheless little known on this matter due the lack of instruments precise quantification study design difficulties. Materials methods We carried out a cohort-nested, case-control with 126 individuals (42 cases, 42 intradomestic controls population controls) goal describing patterns recently virus-infected subjects, comparing them those non-infected subjects...
A growing body of literature shows that neighborhood characteristics influence older adults' mental health. Therefore, the aim this study was to examine association between structural and social neighborhood, depression in Mexican adults. longitudinal conducted based on waves 1 (2009–2010) 2 (2014) sample from Study global AGEing adult health (SAGE). street-network buffer around each participant's household used define so built environment were assessed within it. Depression ascertained by...
Exposure to inorganic arsenic (iAs) via drinking water is a serious global health threat. Various factors influence susceptibility iAs-associated outcomes, including differences in iAs metabolism. Previous studies have shown that obesity associated with It has been hypothesized this association can be explained by confounding from nutritional involved one-carbon metabolism, such as folate or other B vitamins, whose intake may differ across BMI categories and known However, no explored...
To assess the relationship between degree of severity eating disorders (ED) and energy nutrient intakes nutritional risk in a mixed-sex adolescent population without clinical symptoms.
Malaria is currently an endemic disease in Mexico. The country joined the WHO’s E-25 initiative for elimination of Plasmodium vivax to achieve and certification within established period. Having a Web-based information system was, therefore, deemed necessary assist detection, investigation, transmission foci, as well timely treatment malaria-positive cases. “Information System Elimination Mexico” was designed, developed, implemented with geographic vision, which includes Web tool...
Abstract Background Vector control programs, which have focused mainly on the patient house and peridomestic areas around dengue cases, not produced expected impact transmission. This project will evaluate assumption that endemic/epidemic transmission of begins vicinities primary cases. Its objective is to assess relationship between symptomatic case exposure infection incidence. Methods/Design A prospective cohort study be conducted (in Tepalcingo Axochiapan, in state Morelos, Mexico),...
Dengue is a public health problem in more than 100 countries around the world and virtually entire region of Americas, including Mexico. Mosquitoes genus Aedes aegypti transmit dengue; its reproduction requires certain geographical, epidemiological, demographic socioeconomic conditions. Detailed information on socioeconomic, epidemiological entomological data available, but detailed meteorological not. The objective this study was to identify areas risk dengue transmission for each month...
In dengue-endemic areas, transmission control is limited by the difficulty of achieving sufficient coverage and sustainability interventions. To maximize effectiveness interventions, areas with higher could be identified prioritized. The aim was to identify burden clusters Dengue virus (DENV) infection evaluate their association microclimatic factors in two endemic towns from southern Mexico. Information a prospective population cohort study (2·5 years follow-up) used, variables were...
Abstract Background Recent evidence has linked air pollution with frailty, yet little is known about the role of NO2 in this association. Our aim was to assess association between frailty and concentrations Mexican older adults. Methods We used georeferenced data from population-based Nutrition Health Survey Mexico (NHNS) 2021, representative national subnational regions, measure a index based on 31 health deficits adults aged 50 older. Air due estimated satellite images validated...
