摘要

目的：1）分析墨西哥成年人不同肤色的体重差异。2）确定可以根据肤色解释体重可能差异的中介变量。方法：对一项具有全国代表性的墨西哥成年人调查进行分析（n = 12021）。确定了肥胖者（体重指数、BMI > 30）。使用色度表通过自我报告测量皮肤颜色。中介变量是社会经济水平、身高、社区公共服务、公共安全和基于肤色的歧视。结果：与白皮肤女性相比，棕色皮肤女性的BMI更高，肥胖的几率也更高。这些按肤色划分的体重差异与棕色皮肤女性的教育水平较低和更多的歧视经历有关。在男性中，不同肤色的体重没有差异。结论：在墨西哥女性（但不是男性）中，深色皮肤与更高的肥胖概率有关，所检查的社会因素部分解释了这种差异。

Differences in Body Weight According to Skin Color and Sex in Mexican Adults.

Objectives: 1) To analyze the differences in body weight according to skin color in Mexican adults. 2) Identify mediator variables that could explain possible differences in body weight according to skin color.

Methods: A nationally representative survey of Mexican adults was analyzed (n = 12,021). People with obesity were identified (body mass index, BMI > 30) based on self-reported weight and height. Skin color was measured by self-report using a chromatic scale. The mediator variables were socioeconomic level, height, neighborhood public services, public safety, and discrimination based on skin color.

Results: Compared to white-skinned women, brown-skinned women had higher BMI and a higher probability of being obese. These differences in weight by skin color are related to the lower level of education and more discrimination experiences of brown-skinned women. In men, there were no differences in weight according to skin color.

Conclusions: In Mexican women (but not in men), darker skin color was associated with a higher probability of being obese, and the examined social factors partially explained this disparity.

期刊介绍： Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities reports on the scholarly progress of work to understand, address, and ultimately eliminate health disparities based on race and ethnicity. Efforts to explore underlying causes of health disparities and to describe interventions that have been undertaken to address racial and ethnic health disparities are featured. Promising studies that are ongoing or studies that have longer term data are welcome, as are studies that serve as lessons for best practices in eliminating health disparities. Original research, systematic reviews, and commentaries presenting the state-of-the-art thinking on problems centered on health disparities will be considered for publication. We particularly encourage review articles that generate innovative and testable ideas, and constructive discussions and/or critiques of health disparities.Because the Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities receives a large number of submissions, about 30% of submissions to the Journal are sent out for full peer review.
