Lung cancer mortality and municipal marginalization in Mexico, 1998-2016

Abstract: Objective. To analyze the mortality trend of lung cancer (LC) in Mexico, according to the municipality marginaliza­tion index (MMI) by age group and sex, during the period 1998-2016. Materials and methods. The information on mortality, population and MMI was obtained from the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI) and the National Council of Population (Conapo). The adjusted LC mortality rate trends were analyzed using the joinpoint regression analysis. A total of 126 132 deaths were included. … Show more

“…Studies have previously linked material hardship, shortage of basic material needs, and social exclusion to increased mortality from diabetes, cancer, lung disease, and heart disease. 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 Results of our study extend these findings by demonstrating that residing in neighborhoods with higher residential instability and lower material resources can substantially impede achievement of ideal CVH in those not yet diagnosed with heart disease. Therefore, the social environment may be a key target for CVH health promotion and CVD prevention.…”

“…In general, the incidence rates in the USA fall more in metropolitan than non-metropolitan areas, more in males than females, and more in the young than in the elderly [ 38 ]. The variability in the occurrence of lung cancer may be explained by many risk factors that were not investigated in this study [ 39 , 40 , 41 ].…”
