Sexual violence was associated with the highest risk (relative risk: 2.09).

At the same time, national and international documents have been updated, and knowledge about violence against women has expanded, recognizing its various forms (physical, psychological, and sexual) as well as its different settings (family, community, workplace, and healthcare). This highlights that many aspects of women's health are deeply linked to inequality and violence. Investment in biomedical research has a direct impact on population health. If there were no lag in research on women's health, this should also be reflected in women's life expectancy. However, it is essential to prioritize the concept of \"healthy life expectancy\" in order to reach more accurate conclusions. To answer the questions of whether there is a lag in research on women's health and how this lag affects their well-being we propose addressing three key areas: quality-adjusted life expectancy, the evaluation of research projects that include and analyze data by sex, and equitable participation of women in science. Finally, understanding the current landscape of research by and for women in health is essential for designing strategies that help eliminate inequality and violence against women.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"162 1","pages":"45-51"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149192981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is strongly associated with cardiovascular diseases and obesity. However, it is crucial to establish and clarify the relationship between MCP-1 and metabolic parameters in postmenopausal women.Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the relationship between MCP-1 concentrations and various anthropometric and metabolic markers in premenopausal and postmenopausal women.Material and methods: A case-control study, including 82 women (41 in postmenopausal stage, and 41 in premenopausal stage), was matched by body mass index (BMI). Insulin, estradiol, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were quantified by chemiluminescence and MCP-1 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.Results: Age was 46.3 ± 2.4 years in premenopausal women and 55.6 ± 5.1 years in postmenopausal women. The MCP-1 level was higher in postmenopausal than premenopausal women (28.7 ± 10.4 vs. 21.3 ± 16.3 pg/mL, p = 0.04). The MCP-1 correlated with BMI (r = 0.39, p = 0.0001), waist circumference (r = 0.34, p = 0.002), CRP (r = 0.33, p = 0.03), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r = -0.28, p = 0.02), and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) (r = 0.38, p = 0.0001). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that VAT influenced the MCP-1 level.Conclusion: Menopausal status influences MCP-1 concentrations; however, the relationship of MCP-1 with VAT favors the activation of inflammatory mechanisms, outweighing the effects of hormonal status.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"162 1","pages":"67-72"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149192818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bacterial infections caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Mycoplasma hominis, and Ureaplasma urealyticum are among the most prevalent. They are associated with pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic endometritis, fallopian tube obstruction, impaired endometrial receptivity and implantation, and increased risk of ectopic pregnancy and pregnancy loss. Timely diagnosis using nucleic acid amplification testing represents the current standard, while advanced techniques, such as sequencing, enable the precise identification of pathogens and dysbiosis. The treatment of infections caused by these microorganisms involved the use of antibiotics, guided by the specific antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of each bacterium. Alternatives such as antioxidants, probiotics, or vaginal microbiota transplantation have been proposed for persistent infections. The clinical approach is interdisciplinary, incorporating imaging studies and inflammatory biomarkers. Understanding the pathogens and their interactions within the microbiome, along with the integration of reproductive medicine and clinical microbiology, provides valuable insights for managing and preserving female fertility.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"162 1","pages":"28-36"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149193032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Mexico, these conditions show a high and increasing prevalence, particularly among postmenopausal women, due to hormonal changes that negatively affect endothelial function, lipid metabolism, and insulin resistance. Abdominal obesity, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes affect a substantial proportion of women, and tend to worsen with age. Female-specific factors such as menopause, polycystic ovary syndrome, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy further increase cardiovascular risk. Hormonal transition influences the lipid profile by elevating markers such as lipoprotein (a), thereby increasing thrombotic risk. These sex-based differences in cardiovascular physiology, including heart size, electrical activity, and vascular response, necessitate a tailored approach to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Four key challenges are highlighted: recognizing pathophysiological differences, identifying risk factors during menopause, early detection and treatment of prediabetes and dyslipidemia, and strengthening primary healthcare with guidelines specifically designed for Mexican women.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"162 1","pages":"16-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149192140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
