    • Alternate Title:
      Mortality in Mexican adults between 50 to 80 years old with multimorbidity in an 18-year observation period. (English)
    • Abstract:
      The increase in chronic diseases in the Mexican population is one of the main problems in the health area. The objective of this research is to contribute to the study of the prevalence of multimorbidity and its effect on mortality from all causes in men and women between 50 and 80 years of age. With data from the Mexican Health and Aging Study, 2001-2018, the proportional hazards models, adjusted for socioeconomic and health variables, show that multimorbidity doubles the mortality risk for women and men, compared to that of their peers without multimorbidity.

    • Abstract:
      El aumento de enfermedades crónicas en la población mexicana es uno de los principales problemas en el área de la salud. El objetivo de esta investigación es contribuir al estudio de la prevalencia de multimorbilidad en México y su efecto sobre la mortalidad por todas las causas en hombres y mujeres de 50 a 80 años de edad. Con datos del Estudio Nacional de Salud y Envejecimiento en México, 2001-2018, los modelos de riesgos proporcionales ajustados por variables socioeconómicas y de salud muestran que la multimorbilidad duplica el riesgo de muerte tanto de mujeres como de hombres, si se compara con el de sus pares sin multimorbilidad.
