ife conditions are consideredby theWorldHealthOrganization, and thePan-AmericanHealthOrganization, as determinants
of health, associated with the emergence of diseases. We discovered in Maneadero, Ensenada, Baja California, conditions
of sub-developed countries with dirt floors, absent of public services, among others; it is a population highly susceptible to
diseases, and a wide outcome of clinical manifestations. They present a higher prevalence on chronic-degenerative illness as rich
countries. That is why Mexico is in an epidemiological transition, showing health problems, because poverty is highly prevalent
(43.6% of population), and significant prevalence of contagious diseases, but, also non-transmissible, like cardiovascular
disease as the first cause of death. We realized a descriptive-analytical and transversal study, with a random population of
29 subjects from nearly 400 patients in our data bank who attended a medical program (Clinica Movil) from July 13-16 of
2017. Inclusion criteria: patients would have filled a questionnaire (from INEGI: ENGASTO 2012) for evaluate economic
conditions, and medical history. We analyzed the data on Excel software, and made a correlational analysis through odds
ratio (OR). Our results showed the highest frequency of diseases on: Chronic-degenerative, musculoskeletal and Infectious.
Population in overcrowding has an OR=2 for infectious diseases, those without medical attention has an OR=3.5 to have a
second disease; and OR=2.77 for a lack of money to eat in the last three months. We conclude there is a relationship between
health determinants and disease, perhaps not the main etiology, but, improve life conditions, it is essential in the attempt of
decrease prevalence and control diseases.
