To describe the prevalence of knowledge about neurodevelopment disorders (NDDs) and the level of acceptance of models of inclusive education (IEM) in teachers.
A multicenter cross-sectional study in Mexico and Central America. A self-report instrument to teachers of basic level on knowledge in NDDs and acceptance of the IEM.
The response of 511 teachers was obtained. The prevalence of high acceptance of the IEM was 28.6%. see more Of the 120 teachers who reported having extensive knowledge about intellectual disability, 3.8% were in the lowest percentile of acceptance of the IEM, 19.5% in the average percentile of acceptance and 55.5% of them were in the highest percentile acceptance (p<0.001). Among teachers, a greater knowledge about NDDs was associated with the acceptance of IEM learning disorders RM 3.76 (95%CI 2.13-6.62); attention deficit disorders with hyperactivity RM 2.24 (95%CI 1.31-3.84) and intellectual disability RM 3.84 (95%CI 2.46-5.99).
The teaching acceptance of IEM can be favored with greater and better training of education professionals on the different NDDs.

To analyze health practice transformations in health providers in Mexico.
. We used qualitative data to explore transnational health practices of men with migration experience to the US, healthcare professionals in Mexico from eight rural communities, and Mexican providers in US. Data used came from a study that explored transnational health practices in the context of migration.
Healthcare professionals provided care to migrants through remote consultations or via a family member, and in-person during migrants' visits or by health-care professionals relocating to migrants' destination com-munities in the US. The remote consultations mainly caused three changes in the field of medical practice providing care without a patient review or clinical examination, long-distance prescription of medications, and provision of care mediated by a family member.
Changes in their medical practice shifted roles of healthcare professionals and of migrants as patients, transforming the hegemonic biomedical model in Mexico.

The methods that were carried out for the inclusion of the early childhood development module in the Ensanut 100k are presented.
With this module and the questionnaire for children under five years-old, indicators of the state of health, development and well-being of children in the first five years of life are obtained. From November to December 2017, the sample design, instruments and manuals were defined and a test was carried out. Field staff were trained and standardized. The information was collected between January and June 2018.
3 892 children from 0 to 59 months of age were studied in the DIT Module of the Survey.
Training and standardization of field personnel, by trained and standardized personnel, minimizes information biases.

To estimate the usual intake and the prevalence of inadequacy of selected nutrients in the Mexican population and the potential effect that the nutrient retention factors (NRF) could have on these estimates. Likewise, document the methodology used in the analysis of the 24 hours of the mid-way National Health and Nutrition Survey 2016 (Ensanut MC 2016).
Dietary information from the Ensanut MC 2016 was analyzed with and without the use of NRFs.
Results. Most nutrients evaluated showed a relevant inadequacy prevalence above 10% in all age groups. Likewise, we documented that, when NRFs were not applied, estimated intakes and prevalence were significantly under-estimated in a range of 2% to 55.5%.
We documented the relevance of the application of NRFs for adequate estimation of the prevalence of inadequate intake of selected nutrients in population studies.

To describe the adult subsample for the analysis of biomarkers of chronic diseases, as well as the sample sizes (n) and representativity of the Encuesta Nacional de Salud y Nutrición (Ensanut) 2016.
An adult subsample with national representativity was calculated to obtain blood, serum and urine samples. The prevalence of variables of interest was compared for each subsample.
The n for at least one serum biomarker and urine samples were 4 000 and 3 782, respectively. The n varied depending on the grouping of biomarkers and fasting time selection. No differences were observed in the distribution of variables between the whole sample, urine and blood biomarkers samples.
The weighted subsamples of urine, serum and blood biomarkers are comparable to the weighted sample of adults in the survey. The data of the subsample will allow to monitor the distribution of chronic diseases in Mexico, including altered function of liver and kidney, and sodium intake.

To estimate the factors associated with open communication between mental health professionals and parents of patients with intellectual disabilities and other neurodevelopmental disorders.
Cross-sectional survey in 759 mental health professionals. The association between the pattern of open communication and the attributes of communication was estimated through a logistic, ordinal, multivariate model.
The prevalence of the pattern of open communication in mental health professionals was 30.6% (95%CI 27.4-34.0). The associated factors were younger age (RM=2.42, 95% CI 1.57-3.75), specialty (RM= 1.56, 95%CI 1.09-2.23), high value to the truth (RM= 4.95, 95% CI 3.21-7.65), low paternalism (RM= 10.93, 95%CI 7.22-16.52) and courses in bioethics (RM= 1.45, 95%CI 1.01-2.09), adjusted for confusing variables.
Mental health professionals reported low levels of open com-munication with parents of people with neurovelopmental disorders, so prioritizing the value to the truth, promoting less paternalism, and respecting the autonomy of patients, can contribute to changing these patterns of communication in clinical practice in Mexico.
