RESUMEN

Objetivo. Analizar la asociación entre consumo excesivo de alcohol (CEA) y malestar psicológico (MP) en población mexicana, y su posible modificación por experiencia migratoria (EM) en Estados Unidos. Material y métodos. Análisis transversal con datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Consumo de Drogas, Alcohol y Tabaco 2025. Se realizaron análisis descriptivos según EM y se estimaron prevalencias ponderadas, así como modelos de regresión de Poisson con varianza robusta (crudo, ajustado e interacción). Resultados. En el modelo crudo no se observó asociación estadísticamente significativa; tras el ajuste, el CEA se asoció con mayor prevalencia de MP (RP= 1.43; IC95%: 1.20,1.69). La asociación se mantuvo en personas sin EM (RP= 1.44; IC95%: 1.20,1.72), pero no en aquellas con EM (RP= 1.19; IC95%: 0.65,2.17), sin evidencia de interacción (p= 0.558). Conclusiones. El CEA se asocia con el MP, independientemente de la EM. Estos hallazgos destacan la relevancia de considerar el consumo de alcohol en las estrategias de salud mental a nivel poblacional.
