Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Cancer Epidemiology
  • Preventive Medicine

Background:

  • Global cancer rates are increasing, with Mexico experiencing a similar trend.
  • Current Mexican government cancer strategies prioritize early diagnosis over prevention.
  • There is a recognized need to address modifiable and non-modifiable cancer risk factors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recognized cancer risk factors.
  • To analyze Mexican government web pages and cancer prevention programs.
  • To advocate for enhanced public health initiatives for cancer prevention in Mexico.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of cancer risk factors.
  • Analysis of information from Mexican government websites.
  • Examination of existing cancer prevention programs in Mexico.

Main Results:

  • Mexico's approach to cancer control emphasizes early diagnosis over prevention.
  • Key preventable risk factors include smoking, poor nutrition, obesity, diet, environmental toxicity, and sedentary lifestyle.
  • Non-preventable factors like genetics also contribute to cancer incidence.

Conclusions:

  • Mexico's cancer control strategy should integrate robust preventive measures.
  • Public health programs must actively reduce preventable risk factors.
  • A balanced approach addressing both preventable and non-preventable factors is crucial for controlling cancer incidence.
