Poor diet quality is a major driver of both classical malnutrition and noncommunicable disease (NCD) was responsible for 22% adult deaths in 2017. Most countries face dual burdens undernutrition NCDs, yet no simple global standard metric exists monitoring populations population subgroups. We aimed to develop an easy-to-use nutrient adequacy related NCD risk diverse settings. Using cross-sectional cohort data from nonpregnant, nonlactating women reproductive age 10 African as well China,...
Abstract Seroprevalence surveys provide estimates of the extent SARS-CoV-2 infections in population, regardless disease severity and test availability. In Mexico 2020, COVID-19 cases reached a maximum July December. We aimed to estimate national regional seroprevalence antibodies across demographic socioeconomic groups after first wave, from August November 2020. used nationally representative survey data including 9,640 blood samples. was estimated by characteristics, adjusting sensitivity...
Abstract Latin America is the world’s most urbanized region and its heterogeneous urban development may impact chronic diseases. Here, we evaluated association of built environment characteristics at sub-city —intersection density, greenness, population density— city-level —fragmentation isolation— with body mass index (BMI), obesity, type 2 diabetes (T2D). Data from 93,280 (BMI obesity) 122,211 individuals (T2D) was analysed across 10 countries. Living in areas higher intersection density...
A priority of nutrition science is to identify dietary determinants health and disease inform effective public policies, guidelines, clinical interventions. Yet, conflicting findings in synthesizing evidence from randomized trials observational studies have contributed confusion uncertainty. Often, heterogeneity can be explained by the fact that seemingly similar bodies are asking very different questions. Improving alignment within between research domains begins with investigators clearly...
To estimate the willingness to vaccinate against Covid-19 (acceptance) in Mexican population and iden-tify socioeconomic factors associated with vaccine hesitancy refusal.We estimated acceptance, refusal proportions using data from National Health Nutrition Survey conducted August November 2020. Factors re-fusal were explored multinomial logistic regression.Covid-19 vaccination acceptance was 62.3%, 28.2% 9.5%. Refusal being female, having older age, lower educational level, status working...
Study Objectives: To evaluate whether dietary patterns are associated with sleep quality in Mexican midlife women.Methods: The study population included 4,467 women from a longitudinal of teachers.In 2008, semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire was administered.Principal components analysis identified 3 patterns: Fruits and Vegetables, Western (meat processed), Modern (tortillas soda, low fiber dairy).Starting 2012, follow-up questionnaires the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, which...
Higher intake of ultraprocessed foods (UPF), which have undergone multiple processes and poor nutrient quality, is associated with higher incidence non-communicable diseases. Yet, its association hypertension has scarcely been studied, especially in low- middle-income countries (LMIC). We aimed to estimate the associations between consumption UPF (total, liquid solid) subgroups incident a prospective cohort study. used data from Mexican Teachers' Cohort including 64 934 disease-free women...
Evidence on concurrent changes in overall diet quality and weight waist circumference women of reproductive age from low- middle-income countries is limited.
Under the assumption that differential food access might underlie nutritional disparities, programs and policies have focused on need to build supermarkets in underserved areas, an effort improve dietary quality. However, there is limited evidence about which types of stores are used by households different income levels differing races/ethnicities. We cross-sectional cluster analysis derive shopping patterns from US households' volume purchases store 2000 2012. Multinomial logistic...
Objectives. To examine the association between family member incarceration, psychological stress, and subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods. Between 2012 2016, 1849 CVD-free women from Mexican Teachers’ Cohort responded to questions on incarceration Life Stressor Checklist. Perceived stress hair cortisol levels were measured in a subset of participants. Carotid intima-media thickness was measured, carotid atherosclerosis determined all We used multivariable quantile, linear,...
