However, limited media coverage, a lack of awareness among health professionals, and the usage of technical terminology appear to be impediments affecting many groups of the population, particularly older persons.Objective: Analyze the profile of nutritional label use and understanding among older persons taking into account different factors that might have an effect on it.Material and method: The use and knowledge of FWL were assessed using a representative sample of 1884 older individuals from the 2021 National Health and Nutrition Survey (ENSANUT). Logistic regression was used to determine the association of knowing or using FWL, adjusted by age, sex, able to read, educational level, living with diabetes, hypertension, and social security status.Results: The probability of reading and using the FWL was influenced by lower age, being female, higher education level and having social security. There was no discernible effect of living with diabetes or hypertension.Conclusions: Nutritional education tailored to the circumstances of older persons in Mexico is timely.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"160 3","pages":"283-289"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142739146","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}

Anxiety and quality of life were assessed at baseline and at the end of intervention with IDARE and FertiQoL questionnaires respectively, as well as salivary alpha-amylase and cortisol concentrations. Non-parametric statistics was used for analysis using an alpha value of 0.10.Results: 14 MND and 15 CTRL completed follow-up. At baseline, CTRL patients exhibited better quality of life than MND; anxiety scores correlated negatively with quality of life. At the end of intervention, cortisol concentrations (p = 0.097), and the increments of amylase (p = 0.039), were higher in CTRL than in MND. Increases in quality of life were associated with basal anxiety score (p = 0.002), improvements in tolerability (p < 0.001), and mindfulness intervention (p = 0.014).Conclusion: Our results suggest that mindfulness reduces stress and improves quality of life in women under infertility treatment.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"160 2","pages":"161-169"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141906348","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}
