The expansion and discovery of new diagnostic possibilities for the use of many biomarkers of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), including cardiospecific troponin isoforms (cTnI, cTnT), is due to improved laboratory methods for their determination. Throughout a long history of the creation and improvement of immunochemical methods for the determination of cTnI and cTnT, significant changes were observed in the concept of biology and its diagnostic value as CVD biomarkers. The obsolete methods of detection of cTnI, cTnT, named low sensitivity and moderate, were distinguished by a relatively low sensitivity, which led to the confirmation late in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and, therefore, such methods were gradually replaced by new methods of high and moderate sensitivity, such as definitions of methods, ultra-sensitive (hs-cTnI, hs-cTnT)...

A collection of more than one hundred medical recipes from the late 18th century was donated by Presbyter Cipriano Rodríguez Santa María, institutional eponym of the collection at the Historical Archive “Octavio Arizmendi Posada” of the library of the Universidad de La Sabana in Colombia. These texts represent an important historical and medical legacy and they constitute an important basis for understanding the colonial and traditional therapeutics related to various diseases. In this article, we describe one of these recipes for the treatment of smallpox and measles as a contribution to the history of medicine in Colombia...

Dear Director: Reading your article "The pandemic due to the new covid-19 coronavirus", I would like to deepen the contributions of the symptoms of this disease. What has started as a pathology manifested by a respiratory syndrome such as atypical pneumonia, is currently associated with several non-respiratory manifestations (1). Guillain-Barré syndrome in a female traveler from Wuhan is one of the first reported neurological manifestations (2). The literature is rich in terms of headaches, seizures and strokes in seriously ill patients, although the first and last of these may be due to systemic complications of this novel coronavirus, a higher incidence of events has been reported in patients with a history of neurological manifestations...

Drawing on testimonies from oral history interviews, this paper analyses the implications of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) practices for gay men in England. Through perspectives on biomedicalisation, the paper focuses on three aspects relevant to the construction of technoscientific identities in the realm of HIV prevention: (i) the question of agency of PrEP users in the context of what has been defined as a biomedical intervention, (ii) practices of freedom framed within neoliberal narratives of personal responsibility versus responsibilisation and (iii) the governance of risk in the era of biomedicalisation...

La psoriasis es una enfermedad cutánea incurable que afecta a 2.9 % de la población mexicana, por lo que es trascendente analizar el impacto de la medicina traslacional en el desarrollo de medicamentos antipsoriásicos. En esta revisión se discuten conceptos etiopatogénicos de la enfermedad y se analizan artículos publicados entre 2005 y 2017 en torno a medicamentos en desarrollo, además, se presenta un análisis crítico sobre las perspectivas futuras en el desarrollo de nuevos tratamientos. El uso de estrategias bidireccionales de la medicina traslacional ha permitido incrementar significativamente el número de tratamientos antipsoriásicos disponibles...

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, it aims to investigate the increased interest in health as an important dimension of the foreign policy and diplomatic concerns together with the emergence of a new framework for regional health integration and regional health diplomacy. Second, it seeks to understand the role and practices of new regional blocs in the field of health and whether they are conducting to the emergence of new strategies for addressing health regional policies in South America. The regional policy process relates to health as a right...

Las mutaciones en un gran número de genes provocan degeneración de la retina y ceguera sin que exista actualmente cura alguna. En las últimas décadas, la terapia génica para enfermedades de la retina ha evolucionado y se ha convertido en un nuevo y prometedor paradigma terapéutico para estas enfermedades poco comunes. Este artículo refleja las ideas y los conceptos que parten de la ciencia básica hacia la aplicabilidad de la terapia génica en el ámbito clínico. Se describen los avances y las reflexiones actuales sobre la eficacia de los ensayos clínicos en la actualidad y se discuten los posibles obstáculos y soluciones de cara al futuro de la terapia génica para enfermedades de la retina...

This article proposes a new method for evaluating the effects of therapist and patient work in the transference. Work in the transference is often difficult for the patient, and may show a characteristic pattern of lag between a transference interpretation and its therapeutic effect. To account for this lag, we assessed patient responses to interpretations over the course of entire sessions. The narratives patients told about others, or Relationship Episodes (REs), were used as units of study. In a sample of three consecutive sessions taken from each of three psychodynamic cases, we identified several instances when transference work appeared to have an initial inhibitory effect, but facilitated progress over the course of the entire session...
