Mexico diabetes prevalence has increased dramatically in recent years. One of the causes? Having one of the highest obesity and overweight rates (71.2%) in the world. According to a study led by the University of Michigan, Adult (ages 20+) diagnosed diabetes prevalence in Mexico increased from 7% to 16.9% from 2006 to 2023. Diabetes prevalence increases with age, peaking around ages 65–68 to then decrease. Unsurprisingly, Diabetes direct costs in Mexico amount to almost USD$ 1 Billion for outpatient and USD$ 200 Million for inpatient care, plus USD$ 180 Million from indirect costs, without considering costs related to complications. Findings suggest that diabetes will become an even greater public health problem in Mexico in the coming years, with about 1 in 3 to 1 in 2 individuals getting a diabetes diagnosis during their lifetime. This calls for the increase of information about the disease and nationwide preventive strategies, including early detection and surveillance programs, and public health policies designed to improve the nutrition of the population. #mexico #type2diabetes #prevention #patienteducation #curalife

Sickle cell anemia is an inherited blood disorder that alters red blood cells, making them stiff and sticky, which blocks blood flow and leads to anemia. While early detection and new treatments now allow many with the condition to live longer, it still poses serious health risks. Sickle cell anemia primarily affects people of African descent, as well as those from regions with high malaria prevalence. Symptoms can range from fatigue and pain in babies to severe organ damage in adults. Despite advances, access to effective treatment remains a challenge in many parts of the world.
