METHODS
The records of mortality associated
with diabetes for 20002007 were obtained from the National Information
System of the Secretariat of Health. This
information is generated by the National
Institute of Statistics, Geography and Informatics and is collected from death
certificates issued nationwide (21). All
records of mortality in which the basic
cause of death was diabetes mellitus in
the period 20002007 were included in
the study; therefore, the codes of International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) (22) were identified. They
corresponded to the basic cause of death
from diabetes such as (E10 insulindependent diabetes mellitus, E11 diabetes
mellitus non-insulin-dependent, E12 diabetes mellitus associated to malnutrition,
E13 other specified diabetes mellitus, and
E14 nonspecified diabetes mellitus).
Age-adjusted mortality rates nationwide (23) per 100 000 inhabitantswith
the world population as the standard
(24)were obtained. The age-adjusted
mortality rates per 100 000 inhabitants
from each federative entity and from each
of the seven socioeconomic regions (Table
1) established by the National Institute of
Statistics, Geography and Informatics,
were obtained (25). The national population estimated by the National Population
Council for 20002007 (26, 27) was used
for the rate adjustment; the relative risk
(RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for
each of the seven socioeconomic regions
and each federative entity of residence,
with mortality from diabetes by Poisson
regression, were calculated.
The seven socioeconomic regions of
Mexico originate at the National Insti-
Federative entities

CONCLUSIONS
In Mexico, mortality rates from diabetes
increased from 77.9 to 89.2 per 100 000 in
the period 20002007. Women had higher
mortality than men. Individuals who did
not complete elementary school had a
higher risk of dying from diabetes (RR
2.104, CI 2.0892.119). Mexico City as federative entity and socioeconomic region 7
presented the strongest association with
mortality from diabetes.
