contents Contribution of socioeconomic factors and health care access to the awareness and treatment of diabetes and hypertension among older Mexican adults Hiram Beltrán-Sánchez Flávia Cristina Drumond-Andrade Fernando Riosmena Salud Mexico Diabetes hypertension medical care adult health Objective . To estimate changes in self-report and treatment of diabetes and hypertension between 2001 and 2012 among Mexican aged 50-80, assessing the contribution of education and health insurance coverage. Materials and methods . The Mexican Health and Aging Study was used to estimate associations of education and insurance on prevalence and treatment of diabetes and hypertension in 2001 and 2012. Multivariate decomposition was used to assess the contri - bution of changes in the composition of covariates vs. their “effects” on changes in prevalence and treatment over time. Results . Increases in the prevalence/diagnosis and treatment during the period are largely attributable to the expansion of health insurance. Its effects on diagnosis/prevalence and treatment have also increased over time. Conclusions . The expansion of Seguro Popular likely improved screening and treatment. More research is needed to assess if these have translated into better control and a lower burden of disease. 2015 artículo científico 0036-3634 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=10638079003 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=106 Salud Pública de México application/pdf Instituto Nacional de Salud Pública Salud Pública de México (México) Num.1 Vol.57
