AI Article Synopsis
- Worldwide, musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders rank as the second leading cause of disability, significantly affecting individuals in Mexico and highlighting the need for preventive health actions.
- From 1990 to 2016, data reveals MSK disorders as the 3rd and 17th major causes of years lived with disability (YLDs) and years of life lost (YLLs) in Mexico, particularly impacting women more than men and varying by state socio-demographics.
- Addressing the burden of MSK disorders requires collaborative efforts and research to tackle the high rates of premature mortality and disability associated with these conditions.
Article Abstract
Unlabelled: Worldwide, musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders are the second cause of living with disability. According to our data, in Mexico, MSK conditions are an important cause of disability, at national and state level. Preventive actions promoted by health systems to reduce the burden of MSK disorders are essential.
Introduction: We describe premature mortality and disability due to musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders in Mexico at national and state level from 1990 to 2016.
Methods: Using data from the global burden of disease study 2016 (GBD 2016), we present rates and trends in years of life lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) caused by MSK disorders in Mexico by state from 1990 to 2016. The burden of MSK disorders was computed using standard GBD methodology. To compare the burden of MSK disorders across the country, states were grouped by sociodemographic index (SDI).
Results: In Mexico, MSK disorders were the 3rd and 17th greatest cause of YLDs and YLLs in 2016, respectively, accounting for 1.95 million (95% UI 1.4-2.5) DALYs. Among all MSK disorders, low back and neck pain had the highest all-ages DALYs rate and represented 3.6% of total DALYs. All-ages YLLs and YLDs rates of MSK disorders were 234 and 37% higher in females (YLLs 102.2, 95% UI 79.9-110.7; YLDs 1677.9, 95% UI 1213.5-2209.4) than in males (YLLs 30.6, 95% UI 28.3-34.0; YLDs 1224.7, 95% UI 887.2-1608.3), respectively. Northern and high SDI states had higher rates of MSK disorders in comparison with southern and low SDI states. Only 16% of YLDs caused by all MSK disorders could be attributed to risk factors currently assessed in GBD.
Conclusion: MSK conditions are an important cause of premature mortality and disability. Researcher engagement and cross-sectorial actions to address the burden of MSK disorders are essential.

Objective: We sought to determine the safety and efficacy of the oral progesterone antagonist onapristone in combination with anastrozole in patients with recurrent progesterone receptor-positive adult-type granulosa cell tumor of the ovary.
Methods: This was a single-institution phase II study of patients with progesterone receptor-positive adult-type granulosa cell tumor who received at least 1 prior line of chemotherapy. Patients were enrolled from November 2021 to August 2022 and tissue was evaluated for progesterone receptor status via immunohistochemistry.

Aldosterone is a key regulator of fluid and electrolyte balance in the body. It is often dysregulated in heart failure (HF) and is a key driver of cardiac remodelling and worse clinical outcomes. Potassium regulation is essential for normal cardiac, gastrointestinal and neuromuscular function.

Introduction: Active duty service members (ADSMs) may be at heightened risk for eating disorders (EDs) and sub-clinical disordered eating (DE). ADSMs are also at a high risk for musculoskeletal injury (MSK-I). Given the risk for EDs/DE among ADSMs as well as robust physical requirements of military training, additional research is needed to elucidate links between DE and risk for MSK-I among ADSMs.
