目标。[目的]探讨铅釉陶瓷(LGC)与血铅水平升高(BLL)的关系。材料和方法。2018年，我们测量了居住在墨西哥10万居民以下(恩萨努特10万人)的1至4岁儿童的具有代表性的样本中的毛细血管BLL。我们询问了LGC在食品制备和消费中的使用情况。为了估计其与BLL的关联性，建立了按地区分层的多项Logit模型。结果。血淋巴细胞水平升高的患病率为21.8%。北部、中部和南部地区的患病率分别为9.8%、20.7%和25.8%。与LGC的使用和频率的相关性非常显著，并且在不同地区存在差异。结论。在墨西哥，铅暴露仍然是一个公共卫生问题，特别是在中部和南部地区，并与使用LGC密切相关。
Objective. To estimate the prevalence of elevated (>= 5.0 mu g / dL) blood lead levels (BLL) and its association with the use of lead glazed ceramics (LGC). Materials and methods. In 2018, we measured capillary BLL in a representative sample of children 1 to 4 years old residing in Mexican localities under 100 000 inhabitants (Ensanut 100k). We inquired about use of LGC for food preparation and consumption. To estimate its association with BLL, multinomial logit models stratified by region were generated. Results. The prevalence of elevated BLL levels was 21.8%. For the North, Central and South regions, the prevalence were 9.8, 20.7 and 25.8%, respectively. The association with use and frequency of LGC was highly significant and differential by region. Conclusions. Lead exposure remains a public health problem in Mexico, particularly in the Central and South regions, and is strongly associated with the use of LGC.
