Background: The underreporting of vital statistics poses a problem for the quality of information. To address underreporting, Mexico implemented the "Intentional Search for Children Deaths" in 2002.
Objective: To analyze trends in the underreporting of deaths in neonates and children under 5 years of age (U5) from 1992 to 2022 at the national level and by state.
Protective Effects of Melatonin on Kidney Function Against Contrast Media-Induced Kidney Damage in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of acute kidney injury following exposure to contrast media. We evaluated the effect of melatonin, a potent antioxidant, as a protective strategy against contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), with a focus on molecular mechanisms. We randomized patients with an eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the ability to receive health care services. Field-based health services became a logistically feasible alternative to medical center-based care. We compared two different field-based approaches to the delivery of SARS-CoV-2 testing and health education services for Latine communities using a quasi-experimental design that included propensity score matching to accommodate the challenges posed to research by the pandemic.

To analyze premature deaths from malignant tumors among Chinese residents from 1990 to 2021, and to quantify the extent to which changes in premature mortality from malignant tumors affect life expectancy among people aged 30 to 69 years. Using the Global Burden of Disease 2021 data on selected causes of death in China, the malignant tumor mortality rate was estimated for Chinese residents aged 30-69 years from 1990 to 2021, and life expectancy and de-malignant cause-of-death life expectancy were calculated based on the abridged life table for the Chinese population. Arriaga's decomposition method was used to assess the extent to which changes in malignant tumors mortality contributed to changes in life expectancy for people aged 30-69 years and Potential gains in life expectancy (PGLEs) for people aged 30- 69 years.
