Juan César García: Social Medicine As Project And Endeavor.

This paper analyses some aspects of the trajectory of the Argentinian physician and sociologist Juan César García (1932-1984) in the field of Latin American Social Medicine. Three dimensions constituting his basic orientations are highlighted: the elaboration of systematic and reflective social thought; a critical attitude in questioning teaching and professional practices; a commitment to the institutionalization and dissemination of health knowledge.

L’hipocrisie dans Dom Juan de Molière

Dans Dom Juan, Molière continue son combat contre l’hypocrisie sociale qui caractérise la société de son époque et qui est symbolisée par la noblesse du royaume. L’originalité de cette pièce de théâtre réside dans la complexité du personnage principal, Dom Juan, et dans le mélange de religieux, de tragique, de comique, de surnaturel et de spectaculaire sur lequel elle est fondée. Dans cette pièce, rien n’est laissé au hasard: le temps et l’espace reflètent bien le caractère libertin de Dom Juan et le langage est une arme dont il se sert pour conquérir et séduire une femme. Le langage est ici un miroir de la réalité, c’est-à-dire du monde où tous les personnages sont insérés. Dom Juan tantôt utilise le langage de l’hypocrisie pour se défendre tantôt il se sert de la rhétorique pour séduire ses victimes: c’est à travers le pouvoir verbal qu’il arrache une femme à un homme. Le langage est la clé du jeu de miroirs sur lequel la pièce est fondée. Molière montre dans Dom Juan que le langage est un instrument dangereux dans les mains des hypocrites qui s’en servent pour défier l’ordre social, la religion, la famille et la morale.

D. Juan de e.t.a. Hoffmann e don gionvanni de lorenzo da ponte – análise comparativa e intertextual

Através da análise comparativo/intertextual do conto Don Juan, de E.T.A. Hoffmann e do libreto da ópera Don Giovanni, de Mozart, da autoria de Lorenzo da Ponte, o objectivo deste artigo foi pôr em relevo a relação intrínseca, presente em muitas das obras de E.T.A. Hoffmann, entre a escrita e a música, explicável pela enorme sensibilidade musical deste autor, a que não só dedicou a sua vida, como também produziu várias obras musicais. Tal como na ópera Don Giovanni, de Mozart, a escrita de Hoffmann é dirigida por uma batuta imaginária, apresentando o suspense próprio dos enigmas, cuja revelação é suspensa por um entreacto – neste caso, uma carta escrita a um amigo, em que nos é apresentada uma reformulação do mito de Don Juan – entreacto este que vem prolongar o mistério e nos encaminha para um finale, em que a progressão da melodia e a sequência narrativa se unem mais uma vez. Por seu turno, na análise puramente intertextual, é feita uma tentativa de estabelecer, de forma clara, os paralelismos existentes com o pré-texto, isto é, com o libreto da autoria de Lorenzo da Ponte, bem como com outros pré-textos presentes no texto de forma mais esbatida, mas cujo peso é, também ele, significativo para a criação do novo mito de Don Juan, um homem sempre consciente do absurdo da existência, interpretação esta que abriu caminho para novas abordagens do mito, do herói e da história. Tal como em muitas outras obras, o pós-texto procura, em geral, apropriar-se do texto pressuposto, tentando ultrapassá-lo em mestria, o que acontece com este texto de Hoffmann, literária e semanticamente mais rico que o seu pré-texto.

Incidence of anti-toxoplasma antibodies in women with high-risk pregnancy and habitual abortions

Toxoplasmosis is a zoonosis caused by Toxoplasma gondii, an obligate intracellular parasite. In pregnant women on the worldwide scale, there are seroprevalences from 7% to 51.3% and in women with abnormal pregnancies and abortions the seroprevalences vary from 17.5% to 52.3%. In Mexico, seropositivity has been found to vary from 18.2% to 44.8% in women with abnormal deliveries or abortions. This study's aim was to determine the incidence oflgG and IgM anti-Toxoplasma antibodies in women at the Gineco-Obstetrics Hospital of the Western Medical Center of the Mexican Social Security Institute. Three hundred and fifty women with high-risk pregnancies were studied, and 122 (34.9%) were found to be IgG seropositive and 76 (20.7%) were IgM positive. In one group of women with habitual abortions there were 48 (44.9%) with the preseiwe of IgG antibodies and 33 (33-3%) were IgM seropositive. Seropositivity was analyzed according to age, occupation, socio-economic level, eating raw or poorly cooked meat, and living with cats.

La comunicación política para la prevención del riesgo y la mitigación de desastres. Los casos de Santa Fe, Córdoba y San Juan

La presente investigación busca identificar los distintos estilos y estrategias comunicativas llevadas adelante por los gobiernos provinciales de Córdoba (en los casos de incendios), San Juan (en los casos de terremotos) y Santa Fe (en los casos de las inundaciones), con el objetivo de la prevención de los riesgos y la mitigación de los desastres naturales. Las características crisis-propensas de las instituciones gubernamentales, sumada a la fuerte presión de la opinión pública en los períodos de desastres, obliga a los gobiernos a tener una comunicación estratégica ante los medios de comunicación y ante la opinión pública con el objetivo de mostrarse activo en la solución de dichos problemas. Esto implica tener la capacidad de comunicar las políticas públicas de reducción de riesgos, pero también sortear con éxito los procesos comunicacionales de atribución de responsabilidad durante los momentos críticos de los desastres. Por medio del análisis de casos se pretende describir las distintas estrategias comunicativas de los gobiernos provinciales, tanto en su fase preventiva de los riesgos, como durante las crisis desatadas por la presencia de los desastres, y su articulación y cooperación con los actores privados y sociales que participan de dichas políticas públicas.

Age, growth and population dynamics of lemon sole Microstomus kitt (Walbaum 1792) sampled off the West Coast of Ireland

The age, growth, maturity and population dynamics of lemon sole (Microstomus kitt), captured off the west coast of Ireland (ICES division Vllb), were determined for the period November 2000 to February 2002. The maximum age recorded was 14 years. Males of the population were dominated by 4 year olds, while females were dominated by 5 year olds. Females dominated the sex ratio in the overall sample, each month sampled, at each age and from 22cm in total length onwards (when N > 20). Possible reasons for the dominance of females in the sex ratio are discussed. Three models were used to obtain the parameters of the von Bertalanfly growth equation. These were the Ford-Walford plot (Beverton and Holt 1957), the Gulland and Holt plot (1959) and the Rafail (1973) method. Results of the fitted von Bertalanffy growth curves showed that female lemon sole o f f the west coast of Ireland grew faster than males and attained a greater size. Male and female lemon sole mature from 2 years of age onwards. There is evidence in the population o f a smaller asymptotic length (L«, = 34.47cm), faster growth rate (K = 0.1955) and younger age at first maturity, all of which are indicative o f a decrease in population size, when present results are compared to data collected in the same area 22 years earlier. Results of the yield per recruit curve indicate that lemon sole are currently being over-fished o f f the west coast of Ireland. Problems of selectivity within the sampling method, particularly at the discarding stage, may have influenced the outcome of results of the models used in the assessment of this stock. Therefore, additional/future work on this species should include catch data which incorporates discards and not landings data alone.
