Abstract

Modifiable Risk Factors and Lifestyle Behaviors Associated with Cancer in Mexican Adults. The objective of this study is to analyze the prevalence of modifiable risk factors or lifestyle behaviors associated with cancer in the Mexican population, both independently and in terms of cumulative risk. An observational, cross-sectional study with an exploratory scope was conducted among Mexican adults aged 18 to 74 years. The sample included 1,298 cases. The theoretical framework used was the proportion and number of cancer cases and deaths attributable to potentially modifiable risk factors in the United States. The most prevalent risk behavior was the consumption of processed meats (92.2%), followed by unprotected sun exposure (85.1%) and alcohol consumption (74.7%). Physical inactivity ranked ninth (44.4%). The cumulative risk index showed that the largest proportion of individuals had seven risk factors (22.7%), followed by six risk factors (20.6%) and five risk factors (17.5%). The study results reveal that the adult Mexican population exhibits a high prevalence of potentially modifiable lifestyle risk factors, which are attributable to cancer cases and deaths.
