SOCIODEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE FROM CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME IN MEXICO
Resumen
Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) or chronic
fatigue syndrome (CFS), also known as chronic fatigue and immune
dysfunction syndrome (CFSDI), is a complex and debilitating chronic
condition which has a serious impact on the lifestyle of the sufferer. A
number of studies have stated the importance of demographic factors in
the development of this illness. Some sociodemographic topics have been
asseted in this study, such as: gender, age, ethnicity, and marital
status, among others. The current study compared two samples of
undergraduate students: a sample of 51 students from DePaul University
who identified as Caucasian (not Latino), and a sample of 156 students
of Latino origin from Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM).
Results show that women report higher levels at men; participants who
have never been married reported less prone to CFS/ME; Also, in the
geographical area, at Mexican sample, it was found that 40% suffered
from CFS and the State of Mexico. Little research has been made in this
field, being necessary.
