Article Synopsis
- The study assessed 5-year survival rates for colorectal cancer patients in Mexico who were treated under Seguro Popular, a public health insurance system.
- It involved 1418 patients diagnosed between 2013 and 2016, revealing an overall survival rate of 50% and noting that 78.1% were diagnosed at advanced stages (III and IV).
- Findings emphasized the importance of early screening, particularly as younger patients with metastatic disease had a poorer prognosis compared to older patients.
Background: Observational studies have reported that total (poly)phenol intake is associated with a reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, but mainly from high-income countries, where (poly)phenol intake may differ from that of low- and middle-income countries.
Objectives: Our objective was to evaluate the association between the intake of total, all classes, and subclasses of (poly)phenols and risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality in a Mexican cohort.
Methods: We used data from the Mexican Teachers' Cohort, which included 95,313 adult females.
Objective: To characterize the impact of Mexico's Co-vid-19 vaccination campaign of older adults.
Materials And Methods: We estimated the absolute change in sympto-matic cases, hospitalizations and deaths for vaccine-eligible adults (aged >60 years) and the relative change compared to vaccine-ineligible groups since the campaign started. Re-sults.
Objective: To estimate the sensitivity and specificity of two Mexican death registries for the identification of vital status using a publicly available record-linkage tool.
Materials And Methods: We selected all reported deaths (n=581) and 575 alive participants in an epidemiologic cohort with active follow-up. Individual records were cross-linked to two mortal-ity registries.
Purpose: We evaluated the relation between age at menarche and time to menstrual regularity with all-cause and cause specific mortality in a cohort of Mexican women.
Methods: We followed 113,540 women from the Mexican Teachers' Cohort. After a mean follow-up time of 9.
Background: Emerging evidence supports a role of the receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) pathway in normal mammary gland development and breast carcinogenesis. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is the endogenous decoy receptor for RANK-ligand (RANKL), which inhibits RANK-signaling. Whether OPG may be a biomarker of breast cancer risk remains unclear.

Materials And Methods: We compared 5-year age-standardized total cancer and sitespecific cancer mortality rates (2010-2014) from Mexico's official death registry with a death registry from a disease surveillance system. We obtained age-adjusted mortality rates and 95% confidence intervals using the direct method and World Population Prospects 2010 as a standard.
