AI Article Synopsis
- - The review examines pesticide residues in shrimp from Mexican coasts, highlighting that organochlorine pesticides like α-endosulfan and heptachlor are most commonly detected.
- - The Northwest region of Mexico shows the highest concentrations of these residues, raising concerns about the safety of shrimp production in key areas.
- - Due to outdated data (19 years old), the study emphasizes the need for updated evaluations using reliable methods to assess pesticide levels and their potential risks to consumers.
Article Abstract
The present review aimed to evaluate the current situation of pesticide residues detected in shrimp (commercial species) on the Mexican coasts. The organochlorine pesticides (OC), α-endosulfan (210.01 ng g), endosulfan sulfate (127.5 ng g), heptachlor (126.04 ng g and γ-HCH (121.04 ng g) are identified as the most common pesticides in shrimp tissues, with the Northwest area reporting the highest concentrations of these OC. Given that there is an under-evaluation of pesticide residue levels, there was a greater contribution of studies directed at the Northwest of the country considering that there are states that are among the main shrimp-producing and consumers entities. The concentrations and types of pesticides banned nationally and globally, due to their toxic effects on the population, were reported. Therefore, since the most current information is 19 years out of date, it is necessary to perform recent evaluations with sensible and precise methods.

Understanding effects of extreme heat across diverse settings is critical as social determinants play an important role in modifying heat-related risks. We apply a multi-scale analysis to understand spatial variation in the effects of heat across Mexico and explore factors that are explaining heterogeneity. Daily all-cause mortality was collected from the Mexican Secretary of Health and municipality-specific extreme heat events were estimated using population-weighted temperatures from 1998 to 2019 using Daymet and WorldPop datasets.

Although harvest of Octopus maya (Mexican four-eyed octopus) is one of the most important fisheries in the Yucatan Peninsula, little is known about the parasites of these cephalopods and how they affect host physiological processes. We analyzed the spatio-temporal variation of infection of O. maya by the cestode larva Prochristianella sp.
