AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates existing literature on Mexican women who stay in their communities while their partners migrate abroad, using an intersectionality framework.
- Data was gathered through a scoping review of various electronic databases, resulting in the analysis of 19 relevant articles that focused primarily on transnational experiences.
- Key findings highlighted three major themes: research context, gender roles, and women's health, while also noting a lack of theoretical frameworks in many studies.
Article Abstract
Objective: To explore the scope, range, and nature of the existing literature on Mexican women who remain behind in their communities of origin while their partners migrate abroad.
Design: A scoping review informed by an intersectionality framework was conducted over four months, January-April 2020.
Data Sources: The electronic databases Medline, PsyINFO, Global Health, CINAHL, Gender Studies Database, Dissertations & Theses Global, LILACS, IBECS, and Sociological Abstracts were searched.
Review Methods: Articles were included if they focused on Mexican women who remain behind across transnational spaces. Two independent reviewers screened and selected articles. Data were analyzed and synthesized using descriptive statistics for quantitative data and content analysis for qualitative data.
Results: A total of 19 articles were included for analysis; within those, the methods used included quantitative (n = 5), qualitative (n = 11), mixed methods (n = 2), and intervention (n = 1). Most studies lacked a theoretical framework (n = 10); the majority were empirical published studies (n = 11), and most used interviews (n = 12) and surveys (n = 6) to collect data. All of the articles studied cis-heterosexual Mexican women. Major areas identified were 1) research context, 2) gender roles, and 3) women's health.
Conclusion: Implications for practice and future research are discussed.

Characterization of genomic profiling of Mexican women with breast cancer using EndoPredict.
Cancer Treat Res Commun
November 2024
Centro para el Cuidado de la Mama, Hospital Ángeles Valle Oriente. San-Pedro-Garza-García, Nuevo Leon, . 66260, Mexico.
Purpose: In the context of rising breast cancer incidence and mortality rates in Mexico, our study delves into the genomic landscape of Mexican women diagnosed with stage I-III breast cancer.
Methods: Employing the EndoPredict test for genomic analysis, our retrospective, cross-sectional study explores correlations between genomic expression and immunohistochemistry (IHC).
Results: Among 50 female patients, risk stratification by IHC revealed 50 % as high risk and 50 % as low risk, with notable clinical and histological distinctions between the two groups.
Postpartum depressive symptoms and mother-infant dyadic reciprocity: The moderating role of partner support.
Dev Psychol
January 2025
Department of Psychology, Arizona State University.
Maternal postpartum depressive (PPD) symptoms have the potential to negatively impact mother-infant interactions, particularly in populations experiencing contextual stress. We used a resilience perspective to examine maternal perceptions of partner support as a protective factor in the relation between PPD symptoms and mother-infant dyadic reciprocity. Low income, Mexican-origin women ( = 322; = 27.

Research Department, Hospital Clínica Nova de Monterrey, San Nicolás de los Garza, Nuevo León, México.
Background: Psoriasis requires a comprehensive assessment of concomitant diseases to make better therapeutic decisions. This study examined the differences in the onset and progression of associated cardiometabolic comorbidities in psoriasis patients based on their treatments.
Methods: A retrospective longitudinal study was conducted on patients aged over 13 years with psoriasis seen at a Northern Mexican Hospital between 2012 and 2023.
DNA Identification in Breast Milk from Mexican Women with Chagas Disease.
Microorganisms
December 2024
Laboratorio de Investigación en Patógenos Respiratorios y Producción de Biológicos, Hospital Infantil de México Federico Gómez, Ciudad de México 06720, Mexico.
(1) Background: Chagas disease is a public health problem affecting nearly 2 million women of reproductive age in Latin America. From these, 4-8% can transmit the infection to the foetus through the vertical route, whereas horizontal transmission through milk during breastfeeding remains controversial. Therefore, the presence of () DNA in the milk of women seropositive for Chagas disease was analysed to determine whether a relationship with the infection of their children can exist.

The persistence of qPCR positivity for SARS-CoV-2 in individuals who recovered from COVID-19 raised several questions regarding viral transmission, with a special interest in healthcare professionals who may pose a risk of transmitting SARS-CoV-2. This issue highlights the necessity for identifying the genetic risk factors associated with persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection. A promising target for achieving this goal is the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 () gene, which has been associated with clinical characteristics of COVID-19 infection, such as severity.
