To describe the prevalence of obesity in Mexican adults stratifying by physical and sociodemographic conditions and to analyze trends.

The data of 16 256 adults who participated in Ensanut 2018-19 was analyzed. Obesity (WHO), abdominal adiposity (IFD) and short stature (NOM-008-SSA3-2017) were classified. Logistic regression models were performed to analyze the association between obesity and risk factors. ENSA-2000 and Ensanut (2006, 2012, 2018-19) were used to assess trends.

The prevalence of overweight was 39.1%, obesity 36.1%, and abdominal adiposity 81.6%. Adults >40-50y and women had the highest prevalence. There was no difference by socio-economic level. Between 2000-2018, the prevalence of obesity increased 42.2% and morbid obesity 96.5%. Women with short stature had a higher risk (RM=1.84) of being obese than women without this condition, while in men the risk was lower (RM=0.79).

In Mexico the prevalence of obesity continues to increase regardless of socio-economic level, region or locality.

To estimate the prevalence of suicidal behavior and its association with psychological factors in Mexican adolescents.

Cross-sectional study based on the National Survey of Health and Nutrition (Ensanut 2018-19), with a sample of 17 995 adolescents (10-19 years). Adjusted logistic regression models were estimated, obtaining Odds Ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI).

Prevalence of suicidal ideation and suicide attempt in Mexico were 5.1 and 3.9%, respectively; the high-est prevalence was in Guanajuato (ideation 9.0%, attempt 7.8%). selleck products Associated factors. Suicidal ideation tobacco (OR= 2.26; 95%CI 1.62-3.16), alcohol (OR= 2.12; 95%CI 1.65-2.73), depressive symptoms (OR= 6.04; 95%CI 4.71-7.73), sexual abuse (OR= 6.57; 95%CI 4.57-9.45). Suicidal attempt tobacco (OR= 2.17; 95%CI 1.49-3.15), alcohol (OR= 2.32; 95%CI1.77-3.03), depressive symptoms (OR= 6.47; 95% CI 4.91-8.51), sexual abuse (OR= 6.76; 95%CI 4.60-9.96).

By increasing suicidal behavior in Mexican adolescents, it is necessary to implement preventive public policies that articulate mental health, addiction and violence programs.

To estimate the prevalence of child sexual abuse (CSA) in adolescent population with National Health and Nutrition Survey 2018-19 data.

Questionnaire for adolescents (10 to 19 years old) was analyzed and carry out a stratified analysis and a logistic regression model adjusted for variables of interest.

The prevalence of CSA in adolescent population is 2.5% (3.8% for women and 1.2% for men). Among women, CSA was associated with age, marital status, locality type, excessive alcohol consumption, depressive symptomatol-ogy and suicidal thoughts. Among men, CSA was associated with socioeconomical level, depressive symptomatology and suicidal thoughts.

Studies with greater preci-sion and periodicity as well as access to health and justice services are urgent.

To identify sociodemographic and health services factors associated with receipt of immediate post-partum (IPP) contraception and the type of contraceptive method received.

We used the National Health and Nutrition Survey (Ensanut), 2018-19, which contains information on 4 548 women aged 12-49 years who gave birth. We described receipt of IPP contraception and method type and used multivariable logistic (n=4 544) and multinomial regression (n=2 903) to examine receipt of any modern method and type of method.

65% of women received IPP contraception. 56.8% of adolescents received long-acting reversible contraception (43.7% IUD & 13.1% implant). Being indigenous, having only one child, or receiving care in State Health Services/IMSS-Prospera or private sector facilities were associated with lower odds of receiving IPP contraception.

We identify progress in the IPP contraception coverage among adoles-cents. Disparities persist in receipt of IPP contraception by type of health insurance.

To estimate de magnitude of Pb poisoning (≥5μg/dL blood) in 1-4 year old children and to identify the contribution of lead-glazed ceramics use (LGC) as a source of exposure in the 32 Mexican states.

Using the results from a sample of capillary blood lead (BPb) we estimated the prevalence of Pb poisoning, it's association with LGC and national distribution.

The national prevalence of Pb poisoning was 17.4% representing 1.4 million children. The prevalence was 30.7% among LGC users and 11.8% in non-users. In 17 states the prevalence of Pb poisoning was ≥10%, in 11 states between 5-10%, and in 4 states <5%.

There is a geographic differential distribution of the problem; confirming the association with LGC and estimating the contribution of other Pb exposure sources. This information offers a guide to implement preven-tion and control actions in Mexico.

To estimate changes in the quality of process of care and its association with glycaemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes.

Changes in compliance of 14 process of care indicators for 9 038 adults with type 2 diabetes and glycaemic control in a subsample were estimated. Averages, weighted changes and associations without or controlling for other factors were estimated us-ing statistical weights for the combined data (Ensanut 2012 and Ensanut 2018-19).

From 2012 to 2018-19, glycaemic control doubled. Early detection of complications and increased insuline use improved, but identification and treatment of cardiovascular risk factors decreased. The overall quality of care was associated with optimal glycaemic control.

There are areas of opportunity for improvement of quality of care, that deserve comprehensive strategies and continuous monitoring.
